Hey Guys! Long time no see! I hope the long time members remember me, if not, we can get to know each other again! Lots of changes since I was on here and on my kat a few years ago. I've switched bikes, jobs, states then back again, things have been insane and its been a wild ride.(breakups, jailtime, marriage, kid etc) I was given an opportunity to go back to my roots though, by way of a 1995 Suzuki Katana 600. I'm excited to go back to riding the Kat as it was my first post-80's street bike (2nd bike after an 83 V65 Magna).
Bikes I've had since KR
-1980something Virago Chopper
-2004 SV650S (Fully Faired Version)
-2004 XL1200R
Now, coming full circle, I own a new-to-me 1995 Katana. The chopper was a disaster, SV was sold after the plant I was working at closed down, the Harley got repo'd when my hours got cut at work. I've been bike-less far to long and can't wait to post some rides.
The bike was a project bike for a friend, full tear down, paint (frame and all) and restoration (seats, engine parts etc) and I picked it up for what he originally paid for the bike, $700!!!!!! haha. We are putting the finishing touches on it Sunday, so I hope by Monday or so of next week I can post some finished pictures (I have the teardown/restore pics).
