    Hi folks I am new and have no Kat yet.
    I am in the process of acquiring a new bike and have found a 1988 Katana 1100.

    Bike looks sharp and that model year had some awesome specs.

    I have the usual concerns with a used item but would like some advice on what model specific issues are common.

    It will be a huge upgrade over my present GS550 is all goes well.
    Insert Katana here.

      Thanks for the welcome. I do hope my Avatar is not too obtrusive.

        Welcome to KR ! get the 1100 - you'll love it nothing in particular to look for, just the usual wear and tear items: drivechain, tyres, leaking front forks/back damper, steering bearings, wheel bearings, brakes etc and does the screen go up and down as it should ? other than that you'll just have to try it out see how it feels/goes you'll see a little more if you follow my link below

        Good luck, Engelskmannen.

            Thanks guys
            I had hoped to see a nice write up on here.
            I am getting the Plate checked on the bike before I go further.

            We will see how it goes.
