Hi i am Max i normally try to buy 3-4 bikes a year and fix them up and then sell them. Last year i bought a 1998 Katana with 13,000 miles my first Katana, "Pictured in Blue" the bike had not been started for 2 years and had been sitting out in the weather for that long. I got it started when i went t look at it gave the guy $700 bucks and took it home. Once i opened the bike up i found the Fairings were missing 90% of the bolts, it had been laid down a few times, the carbs needed rebuilt (I figured that), new battery, tail light turn sig's, tires, fairing set- bolt set, brake pads, fuel line, shifter/shifter cable, and dents in the tank fixed. Spent about $800 on parts and paint, plus many hours, but once i was done i was able to sell for $2500 and i think it looks good. Pictured in Black now.
I ended up buying 2 more katanas (a 02 with 17k miles and a 06 with 6k miles) last year (sorry no pics) but i just bought one this year a hoping to have pics up soon with a parts list and a price on everything. 02 with 13k miles for 1,300
