  • Got my new bike today.

    Well I finally got my bike this evening, 06 600 black, man it is nice . I had a 23 mile ride home and haven’t rode a bike for about 12 years, was a little nervous for about 1 min :P . And it all came back to me, I have got to say this bike is very impressive, responsive, and handles very well. I love it, my Vance & Hines SS2R should be in by next week, and I ordered a braada cowl last night. Now I’m going to go for the fender chop. I tried to post some pics but they said they were FUBAR or over size. Will take some good pics in the am, and post. So now I have 40 miles on it and cant wait to get on it again, Thanks for everyone’s input and for answering my questions, this site rocks. And I love my new Kat.

            Great man, I bought the 06 600 Black in January and have been LOVING IT. Hope you do so as well. I have got my latest pictures of my mods in the pics and flicks section if you want to see where your bike can head to. I can’t wait to get my seat cowl. Will be icing on the cake.

                  hmmm, with all these black kats being sold, maybe i'll be able to find a place that sells pre-painted black 98+ plastics now? it seems like they sell them in every factory color except for black... pi$$es me off.

                    Cool! Gotta love the black! How does the new black look in person? Is it just plain black or does it have some sublte character? My 03 has a metalic blue flake that looks really cool in the sun!

                    Congrats!

                      Congrats Colt! I got my 06 600 in Black a few months ago and it was a great choice. Would like a bit more power when getting up to speed, but then I could lose weight too. Neither's going to happen!<g>

                      I stripped the decals off my 600 because I didn't like them. It looks pretty good "all black". One of these days I'll figure out what to do with the shovel, but I hate throwing good money after bad into it until I bond with my kat. Have a great time! It's a great bike for re-learning to ride, but also a great choice if you want to learn new tricks.

                        you only put 17miles on before you came in to post that you bought it. Man don't come back until you have over 100miles on it.

                        congrats by the way.
