  • 1988 Suzuki Katana "Country Brawler"

    Changed it up a bit. Not using the '88 anymore, got a much better candidate for a fighter build. Check the thread for updates.

            Well, there's a reason it's in the SF forum... LOL.

                No, sir. If I had another one, I'd sell it.

                If anyone wants that right side tail cover, it's free + shipping.

                The marker light is junk, and the Sharpie lines identify a crack in the plastic, but it's fixable.

                  Holy S***!!!!

                  Quite a project you're undertaking. Have patience, don't rush anything, and don't try to tackle everything at once. Keep updating us.... I love to see stuff like this come together.

                    A little polish would sort that out

                    Good to see someone taking on a really neglected bike & hopefully making it all good again, best of luck mate

                        My kid decided he wanted to show off his riding skills today:



                        He's 9 months old... I'm building an X1 Ninja for him already LOL. Gonna put training wheels on it, and fighter it out for him.
