1987 Suzuki GSX-R 1100
Featuring 137 horsepower and weighing just 434 pounds, the 1100 GSX-R was the fastest bike on the block at the time. Introduced right after the United States lowered the import tax on bikes above 700ccs to 24.4 percent (from over 39 percent), the bike even seemed like a relative bargain.

You guys seemed to be pleased with the last CX500 Turbo I featured, which was being offered at around $4,500.
