...if he's new to the bike world, or at the very least you'd consider him a novice, a GSXR can get him in a lot of trouble FAST. I'd buy him a leather jacket, boots that cover the ankle and a helmet before he takes it for a "spin around the block". The Suzuki GSXR is almost unbeatable on the race track, not because it's necc. the fastest either, it's just a solid bike that offers a lot of power and it's gonna take some practice and getting used to handling it. They're not known for their handling ability!
Either way, I'm sure he'll love it and IF HE EVER WANTS TO SELL IT!!! Tell him to call me, I'll buy it- PERIOD. Not joking!
HAVE FUN!!!!
You'll have to take pictures of the unveiling and post them here! lol
