    Good day all

    I'm new here sorry for taking so long to post to introduce myself.

    I have a gj72a which I am currently attempting to restore after previous owner crashed it slight cosmetic damages.

    Will post pics of the bike when able to
    Hope to gain much info and knowledge as this is my first bike ever and I'm a big gsx-r fan for a very long time.
