Hello all Im obviously new here and wanted to introduce myself. I also had a few questions if thats ok. Ive lurked around quite a bit and been very impressed with all the info on here.
I live in South Alabama and Ive loved motorcycles since my first little 50cc as a kid. Ive had my share of "standards" nighthawk, Suzuki GN and GS, Goldwing, various dirtbikes, etc... Ive been without a bike for about 4 years and miss it so much.
Well, a buddy is getting rid of his 95 750 Kat in August for an upgrade. This would be my first "sport/sport tourer" Im PRAYING I can save some $$ and get it by then. Overall the bike is clean. It has a decent rattle can paint job and is silver. no road rash/damage, etc. Im handy with painting and mechanic work and even restored my previous 1100 Aspencade from the frame up. After looking the bike over I think with some good wet sanding and a few shots of good clear out of my spray gun she would just glow. I also took it for a ride a couple weeks and even took the wife along. We both fell in love with the bike. The power was nice but not overwhelming and its more comfy than most other "sport" bikes Ive driven. (I know its more a sport tourer really) We talked to him about buying when he sells and we were both a little surprised he wanted only $1100 for it. Does that sound about right....I forget the mileage but think its around 20-30K.
Id also love to see any Kat pics from that year model era if anyone wants to post any.
Also thoughts of driving this girl to work everyday and on weekends are haunting my dreams at night. Is that normal?
Thanks, sorry for the long first post!
