Hi guys. I bought a 94 600 a few weeks ago. This is my second bike, and my second year riding, so I'm still a newb, but do have some experience. My first bike was a 80 Kawi 750 LTD, so nothing like a kat, other than both having two wheels. I've found a lot of useful information already, and I'm sure I've only scratched the surface.
I thought you guys might enjoy a laugh at my expense, so I'll share a mishap from my morning. I started the bike this morning in the garage, and walked it out from the right side to let it warm up while I geared up. I went to set it back on the side stand, and something must've knocked it up. By the time I realized it wasn't going to catch the stand, I couldn't stop it from dropping. I was ticked and a bit embarrassed, eventhough I don't think anyone saw, so I walked to the left side and just he-man'd it up. I'm not a real strong guy or anything, but I was surprised how relatively easy I picked it back up. I never dropped my old POS that had front blinkers made of boat lights with amber bulbs and scrap steel, but I dropped this one early in the game.
Lesson learned.
The fairing has a little skuff, but it already had a small one there from the PO. Not a real big deal, but ticked me off none the less.
Thanks for the good info guys, happy to be a Katana owner.
