My '82 Kat is back home after a long winter at the shop having some well-deserved beauty treatments completed. Took it in last fall to have the frame, wheels and other assorted steel parts powder coated. I also wanted the carbs rebuilt and have a good once-over, since the bike had been sitting in my garage for a few years while it waited it's turn to be re-done.
It came out very nice, I still have alot of small cleaning and polishing to do, a clutch cover to replace, replace pitted screws, fasteners and the like, but it's very presentable.
Before I owned it, this bike was living along Florida's Atlantic coast, soaking up sun and lovely salt air...... it was a mess, all the steel parts were rusty.... and looked horrible. The engine was a mess, also, and still needs a few parts replaced. But, with new tires, brakes, tune-up, oil change, etc. it's a least back on the road.
Thanks for indulging me....
