First bike advice - found one

I'm looking to get into riding this year, after a couple years of consideration. Planning to take the course this summer.

After a deal of searching I found a bike, and just want to hear from other Revsceners their opinion on this as a first bike. I wanted to find something inexpensive to begin on, and am going to invest in proper gear.

It is a 1992 GSXR 750 with 57K. New tires and recent tune up.
Not a rebuilt but was lowsided once in its life at 60kph on dirt. All plastic parts replaced.
The owner was going to sign up for track days at pitt meadows and installed race rails to protect the body work while practicing in parking lots or w.h.y. He's selling to get a newer bike and is asking $2300obo.

I'm sure these threads get started all the time - please dont flame me, but direct me to some resources if I've missed some things about starting up. I have done research, but am still new to bikes.

Thanks for the help
