  • First Post First of Many Katanas... well hopefully

    Hello All,
    In the summer of 2010 I purchased a 1989 Suzuki Katana 750F for 950. It came with Givi panniers and I've installed a k48 top case w/brake light. Over this winter, I've gotten the carbs rebuilt, new fuel lines, new and correct spark plugs, cleaned the interior of the gas tank, done a compression test, and checked the valve lash. I got a pretty great deal. I'm goning to be installing individual cone air filters, a full exhaust, and jetting it... eventually. But i'd really like to fabricate an undertail, and a rear frame cover without the huge holes for the pillion handle. Well Have a great ride
