Howdy yall.
I've been riding for a while. I have a 2003 Honda Shadow Sabre VT1100, which is an awesome cruiser, but I wanted to try a sport-bike. Unfortunately, but understandably none of my buddies let people ride their sport bikes, so when a co-worker of mine laid his 2005 Katana 750 over and decided to give it up I lept at the opportunity to get it for cheap.
The right fairing is trashed; but all the bike needed to be rideable was a new handlebar cap, right blinker, and I un-lowered the bike.
So here I am.
Thus far; the mechanical repairs are done; and I bought a fender eliminator kit, because the rear fender looks awful. I hope to install that this weekend.
Otherwise, I think I will ride the bike for the rest of the season and replace the fairings next spring. If anyone happens to have a set of the midnight blue fairings or pieces parts thereto - let me know.
I also intend to get an exhaust and have the carbs jetted.
I'm always up for suggestons on mods.
Otherwise, its nice to have found a site for this bike.
