Just saying hi,
haven't looked at much on the site yet but that's what I'll likely spend most of this evening doing, so far what I've seen Of the site looks quite good.
I should probably admit that although I am an owner of a 1982 katana, it's in need of repair and I'm not quite a good enuff mechanic to fix it myself so it's sitting in limbo waiting, it's waiting to see if I can find a mechanic to fix it or if I'm just going to sell it or maybe even part it out to help a few Kat owners fix theirs. It is a beautiful bike but I'm not sure if it's worth the cost of repair. I was cruising down a freeway and it just seemed to shut off, after looking it over I found that the counter weights for the timing advance broke off and dissapeared on the freeway. The timing cover wasn't on it when it happened. Other then the engine issue it is still insanely beautiful, even with the aftermarket engine fairings. Should I sell or repair? How about a poll? Or better yet, point me to an honest mechanic and I'll let him decide for me when he gives a repair cost estimate, lol. I've never seen another with these fairings, until I saw one on your site. As soon as I figure out how, I'll post a pic, it may change minds about deciding if it's worth fixing or if it should be parted out.
Thanx in advance for helping me decide
