Kevin Schwantz Superbike: Let's get up to speed

A few years ago I started seeing an 86 GSXR 750 for sale on craigslist. Part of me always wanted to buy it but I couldn't justify it to myself. Finally one day, nearly a year later, I caved and went to pick it up.

I should have gone when it was first posted. By the time I made my decision... it looked like this.

Lesson learned.

At the time, I didn't like the idea of making replicas. I guess that I thought it was boring. Somewhere along the way I changed my mind.
