Nice exhaust....though it's gonna be a nuisance noise ...its like an old Alfa.

The modern indicators etc seem out of place ..but it has at least been converted. ;)

I really wasn't a fan of the black frame, the exhaust (for reason you highlighted! plus I never liked the Alfa look), bars or all the clear lens (though easy to fix). All 3 they had need various, but all different, work really.

I have been in contact with the buyer of the initial one (you posted) who's in Warrington I think. He posted in yet another FB Katana group (that I wasn't in (why so many?) - Hootsie let me know). I have let him know about the club and forum.

One thing that I was thinking, I wonder if anyone goes into the Fukushima exclusion zone and recovers motorbikes that were left there? Should I get my 250 radioactively tested or perhaps that will make it goes faster, and glow :lol:

Don't worry Rob, if you go radioactive you might grow extra fingers or your ears might get bigger, but as you live in Norfolk no one will notice, ouch! :oops:

It didn't hit it's reserve. Based on the Red Black that sold 1st and the one I bought, the reserve was probably £1800 (which is what I paid, and happy to not have to go through the bidding for that).

The Ebay bidding price seems to be about £1500. You'll need a set of clocks to get near that... :D
