I'm thinking of buying a 2000 750 gixxer with 3000 miles. Does anyone have an opinion for the bike for that year.

Yeah its a great bike...even though we are all biased to the Gix it is an outstanding bike....when piloted by an EXPERIENCED rider of course.

I am looking at the same yellow/blk gixxer that was just posted. I heard that year bike had horrible 2nd gear problems. Does anyone know how true that is?

I have heard rumblings of the 2nd gear problem, however, you'll hear that about most bikes(some type of tranny issue). I've heard it with the R1's, R6's, GSXR750, and the 1K. Have it checked by a mechanic before you put down a large chunk of cash on ANY bike. On another note, you can't beat the look of the 2000 GSXR750(yellow/black) or the 2001 GSXR1000(black/silver). The GSXR stickers make it look that much better. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

I bought my Y/B 00 GSX-R 750 back in Nov 02 with 6,300 miles on it...I love this bike...It had a full Yosh RS-3 Exhust..Front Sprocket...Texas Undertail...The person that had the bike before me really took care of it....I have 3 brothers that ride GSX-Rs...My younger brother bought a brand new B/W 2002 750, my bike is faster and runs a lot better than his. The middle brother has a 2001...and my bike smokes his too...Everyone thinks my bike has nitrous or something...It kills the others on the launch...

Let me start off by saying my 2k gixx 750 is the sweetest ride I've ever had. I bought it new in 2000 and ride it like I stole it. My only complaints are (1) the OEM brakes suck and (2) my tranny self destructed after a track day last season. I brought it back to my local dealer a year after the warranty had expired bitching and complaining. To my surprise, Suzuki paid for a good chunk of the parts & labor which helped to ease my pain.

Make sure the bike you're about to buy doesn't hit false neutral or miss a shift, that's the first sign.
