Hi,
I'm interested in a used 05 GSX-R. It has 22,000 miles but its valves have never been checked. I've read of engine issues developing when there's no signs or noise. I prefer to buy bikes that have been well maintained but can get this one at a really good deal. Any thoughts? I guess 7000 miles over the suggested 15K to check the valves isn't huge. I can give it a test run but I'd appreciate any advice on this. Got a few nice bikes I can get at a decent deal.
Thx!
