I'm having my bike painted and I need to send the panels away asap could anyone help me out who has original panels. What I need is a close up picture of the gsxr logo on the rear seat panel and another close up shot of the ssc suzuki slingshot carburetor system logo on the fairing lowers I need to get the details of the lettering because all the logos are being done in airbrush . It needs to be the 1990 ,91,92 style like the the one in the picture if anyone could help it would be a life saver

Thanks that's a great help very much appreciated mate. I should be able to work from those ill print them of and give them to the painter I have about 15 photos now and a couple of spare panels of the original colour I want . I've been searching eBay for ages for spare panels with the gsxr on the seat unit because its the detail or the R that I need most there is one favour you could do me if you didn't mind I just wanted to know if you could measure the hight and width of the GSX on its own or individual letters and the same with the R . I like your bike nice colour scheme that looks very nice. Thanks for your help again mate

Your right a lot of pics all good ones tho! I like the zxr4 I always wanted one but got quite attached to the 76, what are they like compared when you go out ? You look like you have a lot of spares for the 76 which are handy it's got that bad for me I've even bought another bike as a spare! I got some new original indicators a couple of month ago they cost me £150 for four then a couple of weeks ago I saw a box of bits on eBay 20 quid buy it know an hour from my house but he couldn't tell me what was in the box so I took a punt and went to get it there were two mint original indicators(gutted) headlight,rear shock,coils and leads, rear light, rear footrests, full wiring loom, original Cdi which works and a few other small bits all in really good condition then when I pulled up he gave me a rear subframe which he found in the shed for nothing ! What a bargain

awesome, Yh got a few spares, got another engine and half in garage another set of fairings, the zxr 400 aint mine but i did ride it, thought it handled alot better but i put that down to my shitty tyres on the 400, as my zzr 600 handles loads better with a stiff rear end :/
Got another 400 in the garage, me tutors track bike, did a full engine rebuild on it. Really need a bigger garage now.
didn't manage to get to garage for pics today sorry :/

Yea no worries when you have time . In one of your pics you have a gasket set where do you get your parts from and what sort of price was it I came across a spare engine last week that needs stripping
