  • My new toy!

    The new toy!

    2005 GSX750F (Katana)

    4100 kms - that's like 2500 miles. Should take me a few years to catch the '93's 152000kms!!!

    Brief 2 hour circuit completed today.
    I love it!
    Comfy, handles well, goes well, but still raw enough to remind me I’m on a motorbike.

    The custom exhaust is a "Madaz Performance" unit. Top quality Aussie made and sounds awesome!

    42T rear sprocket fitted today, along with a speedo healer. Removed rear footpegs and rear seat foam so it can be registered as a single seater (half the cost!)

    Except for a few marks from a stationary drop on the right side, it is like new.
    Photos are better than my dribble ...

    Very clean bud! I love that tail pack set up...

    Did you do that?
    ' Can you take some more pics of how the 'bracket" is attached to the bike! Highly interested in doing that for my VFR!

          Mate, that's one of the "Ventura" gear sacks and racks. I think they come from New Zealand, but they are the most popular here. They make various sizes in packs and soft panniers, and different racks. I like this one cos it has a high "sissy bar" like front that the bag slots onto. It can't fall off!

          Will get some more photos - hopefully tmoro - look out for a thread titled VENTURA!

                Nice looking ride!!!
                This "Phat Chick" rides her own!!!
                BTW, I think they may have been correct. It does appear that BLACK is indeed the FASTEST color. R.O.R...R.I.P.M

                      Yeh - not cheap. But the Kiwi dollar is even uglier than ours so on exchange rates they should be reasonable for you guys. And, they hold heaps of gear. Will still post up some picks later. If you are handy with a pipe bender and welder, the frame would be easy to make.
