Katana 250... GSX or GSX-R

[McDuck]

Yo. As ya know i have one of the baby kats and i was thinking, with that kat being a 'one off' model of bike and using GSX-R type brakes and engine etc would it be closer to a GSX or a GSX-R (I know it is officially a GSX25S)
So what do ya recon?

The 250/400 Katanas use different carbs, CDI, and gearing from the source GSXRs. GSX400SSN/GSX250S is so much cooler than being a JAGA - Just Another Gixer Arsehole.

This is very true ha ha

As far as I am aware, wheels are from a bandit, along with forks etc. brakes a half of a GSXR(i.e. sngl not dbl), slightly de-tuned engine from a GSX-R, but with slingshot carbs from a GSX-RR. so i guess that makes it a ........................... katana, which really is like nothing else anyway, so best not to compare in the first place.

of course, i'm only slightly biased
