        21st Century Katatana

        My 2000 GSX600F is a real pig compared to the beauty of the '80s Kats, but here she is:

                These pics were taken during Suzuki's 50th anniversary in the U.S. at the 2013 Indy Moto GP. Suzuki asked me to put the unmodified example on their walk thru history time-line. My Kat 1000S got to spend the day hanging out with this nice Blk and Silver modded Kat 1100.



                The Cycle World pictorials on the wall were really neat.


                At the Cycle World Rolling Concourse on Saturday.


                My Kat was 1 of 4 seen all weekend and the only unmodified example to be found.

                    Rummaging through an old box I found in the basement I stumbled upon this photo. This was taken in about 1983 - a riding buddies bike who I haven't kept in touch with.

                                Can we have a detailed picture of the exhaust?
                                What did you have to modify to get it to fit?
