Katana Owners Club U.K.

The Aussie pop up riding redhead is Debora-Lee Furness aka Hugh Jackmans wife or ex-wife.

Went to look at Andy P's (Fishkat) Pop up last night. That also started pretty well after a 12 month slumber, with the aid of a new battery. Unfortunately after its little sleep the headlamp no longer pops up. I know this is quite common an there are some weird hyroglyphics showing a wiring change ...

How different are the katana frames from their stablemates in the GSX range? Same with the GS range. Is it just a matter of a few brackets welded in different places to accommodate different bodywork? What about the Japanese 50cc gag bikes built around the H-word clunk engines? I for one would love ...

Age old conundrum of where do you draw the line…

I bought it in 1992. From Pete Smith motorcycles in Pontefract, sadly long gone. He had to order it in and it took a good few weeks to arrive. Proper workshop manual not Haynes.

Yes there is. I got one for when I had my pop up.

It has potential though…

I quite like it in a strange sort of way….apart from the bars and foot pegs, not sure what that combination was trying to achieve. I’d be investigating the frame rust above the gear lever as well.

They have a nice garden though…
