    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

My Touring Kat at Barber Vintage Races this Fall packed and ready to head home.



Coming home the long way.... 900 miles.





 
Keep them coming, fellas.

sorry for the cross-thread repeat ... it's just that I snapped this at the end of a ride (not having photog skills) and it came out ok ... (they're definitely one of those 'you either love 'em, or hate 'em)

Let's see what I still have in my photobucket...


Wifey's Kat and mine.






With wifey...

that pic was taken in the Italian Dolomites (on the Sella ronda, for those who know...)





Katana vacation in the Alps




One more shot of my single sider Kat

 
Barber Motor Sports Vintage Festival 2013. My Kat participated in the VJMC show and did quite well receiving the trophy for "Best In Show Merit" out of 150 bikes. It was a really good time and the Barber race course and Museum is outstanding and displays two pristine Katana 1000SZ's.











 
Keep 'em comin' fellas! Can't get enough of seeing these shots even though it makes me jealous :D

After looking at all these photos.. I definitely need to get myself a Katana. Such beauties!!

Most definitely Cheryl! I will definitely have one before too much longer!
 
My newest addition to my Garage.... What this? Another Katana!




Sean, I was a little confused until scrolled down and realized that you have 2 kats...I love the look of the black chrome exhaust on the showbike....tasty:)

Thanks Glen. I got back from Barber this year and after riding the Kat on the trip I realized I desired another. I got lucky and found this one complete with black chrome exhaust. I plan to put this one back to original as it seems original Katanas are more rare now than modified examples. But, I enjoy them all. Like most here I have an illness. -Sean

I really like the look of the 18" wheels on the Kat:)
I wonder if I should not move mine over from my GS 1000 ST?
Note that I have managed to fit a GSXR 1100 K front fork with these wheels:cool:
