Nice bike - Looks like a missile
I like bikes
I will have to agree with others here- it does have a stealth fightery look to it. Pity you couldnt quite get into the single cylinder club, but oh well, shes a nice set of wheels nonetheless. Might see you around on it one of these days

Ahh a replica of the real Katana, unlike the silly pop-up fiasco that was slower & not as cool.
Now if we can just shoe-horn a 750 or 11 motor in there.
Don't you look at my accountant.

Well done Jim mate !!!!!!
Katanas are the bees-knees (even the littlies). Me old man used to race the 1100SXZ (only Katana-buffs will know what that means), and I had many a ride on the back off it too (being 12 years old and all at the time).
Agree that the charcoal silver is nicer than the light silver.
Good on you. Look forward to seeing it in the flesh.
And Kickaha, that Yoshi Tank looks wicked !!!!

not sure that they'd fit, they are smaller in the dimensions than the 750/1100 KatanaOriginally Posted by F5 Dave

Nice one. To me the katana is still the sexiest bike ever made - pop-up being the creme of the crop in my eyes.
Its the nicest cross between nekkid and sport.
Luchy bastard......

The pop up is not a real Katanait doesn't have the lines or "look" of the earlier shape

Nice looking bike, I had fogotten they made the little ones, don't worry about the bigger engine, just get the bores resleeved for a bigger piston, fold out wings and it should really fly,

awesome bike jim!! did you say how much you got it for ?
dont break your cake
on the up
You know Jim, when I was coming back to biking four years ago I very nearly bought one of those 400 Katanas.
I seem to recall from my test ride that they are the easiest bikes in the world to ride, and not too slow either.
Good stuff.
And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

I agree....except for the 2nd bit...... haAt first I thought they were quite ugly... but they have grown on me!
Have fun Jim

TSS had one a couple of years ago when I was looking at a 2nd bike and I bought IL4's CB400 instead (Shoulda kept it! Gahh. F U Hindsight). I took it for a test ride and was immediately smitten by the Katana's easy handling and relatively good mid range. Nice brakes too.You know Jim, when I was coming back to biking four years ago I very nearly bought one of those 400 Katanas.
