Yeah, I saw one parked up in Dannevirke the other day, I liked them when they came out, even more so now. Cool as fuck sums them up nicely
Now thats a threat!
And that's a promise
Steve, I audibly groaned when I read that, thanks for ruining my breakfast.
I think I mentioned to you the only time I rode a real Katana, I was left feeling somewhat underwhelmed. To be fair the owner thought maintenance was something a woman got paid for his past sins. So for sure it was not a good example of a one.
At only 17, lived in a flat with him, another guy with a Z1300 and 3 woman flatties, made for interesting dynamics! On rainy Weekends while they were bonking the flatties, I would clean all 3 bikes, mine was a RZ500. I did eventually get a life and found curvier, softer, warmer things to lavish my attention on during rainy Weekends, (Note to mods: see, staying on the "Keeping it up" topic) unless it was sunny, because then I would definitely be out on my bike! Priorities and all that![]()
Water bottle Will be the classic Suzuki I get. Might need to bastardise it a bit to keep up withthe Thursday rides though.
My apologies, the only katana I have seen in the flesh close up (metal?) is the pop up and the newer one that looks like a completely different bike but I find the earlier ones do have a slightly nicer shape judging by a quick visit to Wikipedia, I hadn't done too much research before now, I just like the shape (by original I mean the original body style rather than the teapot which looks like crap)

no one, either experienced or a learner, should be encouraged to over reach thiier ability to ride. to do so, can very quickly
become all to dangerous.
always, always always, ride you own ride where you are comfortable do not let others dictate how you should ride, If you are
riding with a group that likes buggering off into the wild blue yonder and you dont, find another group.
if you are a learner see if you can find a responsible experienced rider, who is happy to offer tips
whats the deal with those crazy Courier POST drivers? they really know how to hoon a company vehicle. I had one keeping up! with me on the rimutaka's....my riding kinda sucked that day, I suppose, lol
I've worked as a courier, unfortunately they have to push the limits to get the job done, a big reason I left was just that.
I don't mind speeding but hate being in a position where I feel I had to. It's the same with truck drivers which is why multiple log books used to be so common.
