Hi folks, My name is Chris I am 28 years old and living in Ontario. I just recently picked up a 2005 Katana600 that has some hwy miles and has been sitting for two years.
This is my second bike and to be honest I was not planning on picking it up but the price was right and I wanted to try to build another bike because i had so much fun building my Cafe Racer.
The Kat has a few issues that i need to address before i decide if it is worth investing time into, like doing a compression test, there is some issues with the carbs, not sure were the problem lies but the bike starts easy with the choke on or off but will rev up (keeps bogging) unless the fuel tank is removed.
Here are a few pictures of my 77 RD400 with only 3k miles when it was salvaged from a barn.
And the Katana
