This is one of the few custome ones of these that I have liked: and it is the tail treatment that makes it. that big ugly Looooooooong loaf of bread thing on the stocker is ugly as sin and people usually leave them when they piss about with the bike.
this is cool as hell I reckon.

Looks ok, but then a original Katana is one of the best looking bikes anyway.

It looks hideous :puke: Why would someone do such an atrocity to such a nice bike :scratch: :confused:

Well, I like it.
But these custom jobs often seem to forget that in the real world we need plates and indicators and stuff. I'm more impressed with bikes that can look good and be used for more than just photo shoots.

Well, the seat looks nice.
Stolen from a Raleigh Chopper, but mounted back to front by the looks of it.

Funny that. I read this thread the other day. Then tonight I watched a TV show called Naked Speed. A show about customizing various bikes. Not hardleys or choppers but crotch rockets, Ducatis, and others. Tonights episode is about the Katana in this thread and how it came to be. The other half of tonights show was about Ricky Gadson and his Dads Z1300 resto.

Every Custom Katana ignores the fundamental design statement made by the original and tries to tip it on its nose to match current design methodologies, and truncates the tail, all of which unbalance the original design purity.
It never works. Not ever. Leave well enough alone.

It hardly ever works. Not ever. Usually I would say leave well enough alone, but here it has worked superbly. Bravo
I fixed that for you. You seem to have left out some words......... ;-)

Katanas have always been ugly, so this can be nothing but an improvement.
