  • New by from Lancashire

    Hi everyone signed up ages ago but never posted, I'm a two Kat owner, 1 is my protect to become a complete 1 off and has had a fully custom paint job. And I have a standard wait left the factory black and pink one! So both quite different and both 1994 models.

    Looking forward to meeting other owners

          Thanks! I do love them both. The black and purple isn't finished yet. The swinging arm is coming off and being powder coated in black, same for the front forks. Currently got a fabricator making a new tail tidy. Over winter the carbs will be off and vapour blasted to be cleaned to new. Really looking forward to next season when the bike will be finished!

          As for the second she will be getting a new set of down pipes and two new cans I want it to remain as standard looking as possible!

            For the 1 off, any mods beside the paint?

                  Really like that paint scheme on your Kat. Very clean.

                  Have any idea about that exhaust setup on your one-off?

                    Hi thank you! It is a labour of love and still plenty of bits to do on it. The exhaust has a been converted to a 4 in to one this was done when I bought it and I am struggling to identify the down pipes. They are a similar set up to the 600 bandit but they are a smaller diameter. The link pipe is from a 600 bandit and is brand new the exhaust is made by a local manufacturer and is frankly superb amazing note and sound epic with the baffle removed! The exhaust and link pipe came from a company called pipe werx and I fitted this myself. Their website is http://www.pipewerx.com/delivery-info/ as you can see from that link they do deliver to the US totally worth the delivery charge for the quality of the product. All flat spots I. The rev range have gone and it feel 100% more responsive especially after a carbs off clean and then balanced

                    It is now a very capable bike.

                            Welcome to KR! Pretty nice set of Kats there, even though the color isn't necessarily my thing!
