I finally got my new (to me) bike home.

It's a 2001 Suzuki Katana 750 with a RS3 yoshimura full pipe. Picked it up from a family member for 3k. The bike has 6800 miles on it. I need to replace the front blinker lense because it's cracked but I was going to replace it with the clear ones anyway. Also I'm getting a smoke colored winshield for it.

Heres looking forward to many happy miles.
 
How is it a chick bike? It's a sport bike. You mean it's not a cruiser? I ain't an old man like you terry. :)
 
Well it's no crotch rocket. See that extra seat there?



Good beginner bike though. You'll trade it in 6 months.

Trade it in for a Gixer!


The Katana is the KJ of the Suzuki family...



:D


What makes you say that? Their two very different kinds of bikes. This is a sport touring bike. I have a sportier ride thats a bit more comphy.

Plus who cares so long as I'm happy with it? This bike is amazing.
 
Never was much of a fan of the can-of-tuna.

But I'd rock a Bandit 1200S any day of the week ;)

But hey, if you like it that's all that matters.
 
I remember the first time I saw the original K'tana...

Thought it was so frickin futuristic...

I later wound up addicted to GSXR's...

including two '87's...

One for track duty with a 750 bored out to 907 with Yoshimura Tornado bodywork by airtech and another 750 with an 1100 engine...

one wrecked...

the other stolen...

I'm holding out for a Duc nowadays...

I really really wanted a monster. I would have got an 07 monster 695 but then I found this for so cheap. Monster will be the next one.
 
Just be careful. I do not miss mine one bit. We were at breakfast over the weekend and about 15 sportbikes rolled in and came in for a tall stack. I love the sportbikes but after my get off I'm just too scared of them. I'm OK with being a sissy. All I have to do is look at the wonderful scar on my knee.
