Hello everyone!
I just stumbled upon katriders.com while trying to get as much info as possible on my latest acquisition... a black '94 Katana 600.
I just last week got my license, and already have managed to put nearly 400km's on my bike with the help of my accompanying rider (stupid Quebec law).
The bike:
A '94 Suzuki GSXF-600 Katana. The previous owner was meticulous with this bike, right down to changing every single screw and bolt for some nice red anodized ones. I purchased the bike with ~67300km's on the odometer. I have the complete service history all the way back to the original owner. I honestly feel like I got lucky with this bike when I found it.
I opted for this bike primarily because of it's looks and low insurance premiums. However now that I've had a chance to ride it around, I'm falling in love with it's handling more and more... As a first bike, I'm sure it will serve me well for many years to come.
I've noticed that there aren't many aftermarket parts available for this bike. Such as huggers, fender eliminators, rear seat covers, etc... Is it just me or this really the case?
Here's some pics:

I'm not a big fan of the chinese lettering on the side... Those will most probably go the way of the dodo once I figure out a way to get rid of any sticky residue left behind without damaging the paint....
I'm lookin forward to checkin out the rest of this site....
