  • Yes there are Katanas in Ohio

    Hello all, friends from the day call me jimmy (or jackass!) I am the owner of a 2004 kat 600 and recently stumbled acrossed this page thanks to my buddy justin who also has a 2004 kat 600. his is yellow/black and mine is blue/white. we were so excited when we got the bikes that over this last winter we jumped all over changing them around. now all we have left is the expensive shit to do which I imagine will be this winter. I got a blue chrome windsheild, tank pad, blue headlight tint, yoshi rs-3 exhaust, fender elimination w/ led turns, and blue neons. I also chromed the grab bar behind the seat which started something for me. Now I want chrome wheels, swingarm, pegs, grips, bar ends, frame sliders, you name it. The only problem is it is still a "b" bike. I can't decide if it would be looked at as stupid to go all out on a sub-90 horse bike. My other problem is I cant see myself paying $10,000 for a bike anytime soon. I need to decide before this winter since that is when the chrome fairy is scheduled to come. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Very open-minded. Hope to chat with ya'll soon!!! p.s. I'll try-n-get pics up soon!!

      If you plan on keeping it for awhile why not chrome it out the way you want it. If someone else dosen't like it that is thier problem!

                        Well, sounds like this kat is gonna get smacked by some chrome!! yes jason, we should make a saturday sometime now that the weather is finally nice. Katdan2, know where englewood is?? Let me know. It is nice to have a buddy w/ the same interests but its hard to not come out with the same looking bikes. It's hard because we have the same tastes and when we talk about something that looks good, it's hard for us to not both do it. we're trying to make them somewhat different. thanks all for the input!!
