iv never been a fan of the sd style paintwork on kats, but that aside, it seems like a well sorted bike. wonder what his reserve is, as it is, its a grand more than i paid for the kat 1000 i got with the gsxr11 engine fitted.

Bidding ended at 4150 quid .....no idea what reserve was......might be back later.

[johnr]

according to the ebay ad, it met its reserve.

[fossie]

By recent owners/ sellers that was indeed a bargain.
For tight ar*ses who are still are living "back in the day," it was 2 grand too much.
& for some, without proper clocks not worth anything.



That'll be me then!!!

i think the lack of stock clocks and the colourscheme may have put buyers off and kept the price down, as did the bike being sold just after xmas.

I remember seeing this when Danny was building it, and it was a really lovely bike then. Not original obviously, but has the benefit of being built by a pro. If I wasn't supposed to be clearing out my garage...
