Mine is actually a 1000... but it has the decals of a 750... That way people don't know what I got. My best friend had a 750 GSXR in red... his was a 1999 and mine is a 2002 though... He dumped it doing a stoppie (when you hit your front breaks and let your back end come off the ground and the ride it out, its kind of a backwards wheelie...) Heres some pics of his bike and him in the hospital after he slid into a curb and shattered his foot...

Me and my buddy riding right before a huge bike show in my hometown:

His bike after he dumped it... You can't see all the damage really well... It slid into a dumpster and collapsed the dumpster... the front wheel and forks are completly toast:

Here he is in the hospital... Two bones in his foot lost blood flow and almost died... for a couple weeks they thought they were going to have to amputate his foot... He has two plates and 4 screws and will limp the rest of his life:
