It looks like it could have been a Suzuki TLR in a previous life.

Totally ruined now.:mad:

Believe me it's a TLR.
I've got one in my garage.

Sharpo,

I beg to differ old chap.

I think you'll find that it's a Gixer 750 of the 96-99 vintage and not a TLR. Easily distiguished by the side panel air ducts and the tail unit (which has been modified)

Well spotted KeefyB

Am I being stupid but doesn't it say its a year 2000 888? Thought they finished around 95?

Yeah, I go with slwells on that being an old 750, of the SRAD variety.

Have a look at the seat unit - it deffo started life as a 888 and then was dragged through the depths of hell by the looks of it! The older gixxer was quite swoopy in the seat unit - this one isn't. Very flat with the strada style single seat add-on over it - very 888'ish.

916 style lights, and god knows what else on it. Also, if you gents look at what the website says it is - 888.

No way!
Take another look at,although its pretty repulsive,that seat is way too wide and bulbous to be off an 888.The top fairing and lights are Ducati,the rest is pure GSXR.
It may be 888cc,but no way is that a Duke 888.
