The Kat is Bac

The Kat is back

A little back story, I bought the Kat 3 yrs ago, picked up a parts bike 2003 750 Kat that I pulled apart and sent out the parts for powdercoating Winter of 2013-2014. Put those parts on for summer 2014. Got everything back together then life took over and I only got to ride her for 300 miles the whole season. So this Winter 2014- 2015 ripped into her again
Sent carbs to Arsenic, Thanks Chris for a spectacular job and sent rear shock to Norwest Thanks Terry, handles great.

Here's the list of mods

Nice! Trying to get my old 96 Kat going.

looks sick, how much did that all end up costing?

[shpielers]

He couldn't do it all #for1dollar
I'd guess $2.5k+. Either way, turned out really well. Like the headlights and taillights especially.

Very nice looking bike and +1 on the undertail and back lights those look great

[DarkFury]

IDK what total cost was but I can tell you it was more than I paid for the bike. Probably close to 2K, Carbs, front and rear suspension was about a grand.

Thanks on head light and tail lights. I really like the undertail lights mainly to get rid of the bee hive tail light for something a little more modern and the HIDS in the front throw out a ton of light.
