Rebuild? Start? I doubt these bikes will ever experience either. I'm not usually a fan of that sort of thing but I guess sometimes things like this need to be preserved.

I used to FAWN over those bikes in magazines.

My friend runs a dealership in Winchester. He has a "new in crate" 1986 GSXR750 limited homologation bike. I told him if he ever uncrates it to call me and I will buy it for MSRP. It's perfect with the exception of a little blue spray paint on the tail section from where he sneaked into the warehouse and sprayed paint into the crate when he was 9 years old. He said it will probably wax out.

I have ridden with a guy in our area that bought an RC30. He took it out on a group ride about 10 years ago. Wicked bike. He didn't baby it at all as he has raced WERA for years on the professional level, just not on this bike.

Thanks for sharing the vids

MSRP was only $6K for that bike.
