Well spotted
Mines got genuine Suzuki mirrors and they are black plastic. Now I’m no expert so I expect to be shot down in flames any moment now

We got chrome mirrors on some models ....construction and use regulations at the time.

But seriously does it matter?

Yeah the UK got those round mirrors. I prefer the black plastic Kat ones too!

Hi all, it's sold pending payment that may happen today. I bought and built this as a keeper, sadly riding this one or the 1100 criple me ;-(. I love having classics as long as I can ride them, after 5 miles on a stock Kat i feel like roaring. Gutted with my back.
Needs must ah.

Well payment has come through. So it's a done deal, i love it to look at, but I didn't want it to just be an ornament.
Once collected I will let you all know who the new owner is

The thou goes tomorrow, luckily I don't have the emotional attachment i have with my 1100. I will be happy just riding around pboro on it.
Any way, the thou is going to Richard Hammond. The Hampster, had a fair few chats with him about bikes, he loves bikes. As a young lad he had a kat on the front of a super bike mag, so always wanted one.
He is kindly going to help with a little promo of the Charity bike build.

Remember to invite him to EK9!

If you get a pic of him on the bike it'd be great to use on the FB page!
