I thought all of the 750s up here came with the popup light, but that sure looks to be the fixed lens.

Yep Skinner you did an awesome job, she sure is a head turner and a stunner!
BigD... the 81 to 83 750's shared the same bodywork as the 1000/1100's, the popups came in in 84/85.
In the JDM market, the 750's continued alongside the popups I believe. My frame is actually an 84 import 750 frame, but it's not a popup... just to make things nice and confusing1982 GS450E - The Wee Beastie

back when they were new, I just lusted after them, too young and naive to know the differences, and broke enough that I couldn't buy one. Now I'm just older, don't spend enough time trying to sort it all out in my crystallized memory, and STILL don't have enough disposable income to indulge.'83 GS650G

Just when at my advanced age I had given up my quest to have a Katana, someone posts up a beautiful ( pornagraphic) BOTM example to rekindle my lust. Anyone want a 06 Goldwing? Congrats for selection of BOTM!Last edited by Charlie G; 05-02-2018, 07:27 PM.sigpic

Congrats - that is a very nice Kat. 750 Kat's are quite rare, especially in 82 dress. (Canada and the rest of the word got them, but still small numbers... Willing to bet you have a very low chassis #.Scott
