Katana Owners Club U.K.

This looks like value, 400 Katana that needs a quick recommissioning

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335220682702 ... media=MORE

With the best offer option, it could be reasonbly priced....but would anybody who's of reasonable mind go down the route of 400 ownership

Now I don’t know how to respond to that……
As is it in the same league as my 250? Well, I got mine as it’s miniature but the 400 is not and doesn’t have the cute factor imo. Then on the flip side I’m not attracted to the proper 1000/1100’s. Anyway that’s me wittering on…….

I dispatched my 400 for years and 100,000kms ..and it started fine until the carbs wore out the plastic slides and the tokico brakes wore through...I know its extreme and actually a thumbs up to the model in that no one else will do that milage....but time isn't a friend of static GSXR types carbs and E10 left in them laughs at the unwary owner...that coupled with cdi 's proving that time isn't their friend either.
Cracking bike when its running right ...but a passion to keep it that way.

Sold!

Anyone on here?

No one that'll admit

Only if you can get it to start

Glad that was too far away for me to buy it!

With JohnD sorting the carb issue and a new CDI not too expensive, these may be a good buy now?

The 250 was too revvy for me and I can't afford the big Kat that I want.
