08 848, i was kinda shocked to find it was steel as for aluminum to steel never seen it done and cant really without special materials (bimetallic transition) and will never be as strong as a steel to steel or aluminum to aluminum

If its an 08 848 I assume the sub is aluminum like a real sportbike, and a katana frame is steel...so...

nope its steel the owner swapped out for aluminum because he races it

An 08 848 comes with a steel subframe?

Wow, if thats true, then **** Duc even more, thats stupid as hell.

[cintidude04]

Interesting. Im looking forward to seeing how it looks on your kat.

Steel frame and only 370 lbs....

[blitz2190]

yea but like cintidude said only 370 lbs, i wouldnt mind having one haha it has a wet clutch so no more ducati clunking

[scottynoface]

Lol 370# is a good thing huh?

I'm interested in seeing the results as well. Looks like a Ducati but accelerates and handles like a Katana

[blitz2190]

hey i couldnt afford the ducati so next best thing, and it might go faster just like when u add a sticker kit right?
and ill be sure to do a before and after on the bike

[blitz2190]

so i think im losing my mind to confirm its a 750 dang haha, but i swear when i ride im only hitting 5 gears just went up through them manually and found 6 mabe im just goin nuts

[cintidude04]

Did you check the engine serial number like I showed you?

[blitz2190]

yea had a R and it does have six gears when i do it manually with the engine off maybe im just not counting right on the bike when i ride lol to bad was really hoping for 1100, so my next question know anywhere to get some 89 gsxr cams i found only the exhaust on ebay and prob wont have the cash in time

[cintidude04]

I have several sets of cams around the house. Let me Mic a few sets and see if any match my good known set of 89 750 cams.

[blitz2190]

[cintidude04]
