Hey i have an 88 katana 600 and when i sit on the bike the rear suspension is really loose (springy) is it common for these bikes to have a springier rear end. my friend had a 87 honda hurrican and i dont recall it being that bouncy. its not uncomfortable riding just when sitting at a light you move or shift your legs a little and you can feel the suspension travel. and would that affect inspection. also does anyone have specs for an 88 katana 600 (gsx 600f) 1/4 mile times 0-60 and 0-100 times

Originally posted by The CyberPoetI wouldn't be surprised if the rear shock assembly on an 18 year old bike has given up the ghost (most do in 5 to 8 years). Check to see if the preload is jacked up and the dampening is also, and if it is & is still soggy, then it's time to seek out a replacement.
