    Hi.......again

    Hi, I have a confession, I'm not a new guy at all. I used to frequent these pages many moons ago and for one reason or another lapsed and I forgot my login details and yadda, yadda, yadda. So anyway I'm back in a new guise.
    I'm based in the UK and have a soft spot for Katanas I had one as a spotty youth in the eigties and in 2008 decided to build my take on a modern Kat and still have it and still love it, was out on it today



    Looks like I failed with the pics:/

      I tried posting the pics from my photobucket account (fail) and have subsequently set up an album but uploading direct from my laptop also fails despite resizing the image.

              For some one like myself who's not a KAT FISH (ionado), tells us how it differs from stock.

              Very nice.

              2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.
