Russel's HellKat

Russel no longer owns this bike, but like many ex-Kat owners says he still regrets it.
But, he says, I can allways build me another one...
...and you will Russ, you will... look at me ;-)

At first glance when I saw the pictures he sent I knew it.... this is THE paintjob for a Kat.... in one word AWESOME.
My wife said she hated it so now I will defenitely copy it onto my bike ;-)

The bike was a 750 import, fitted with a CBR600 front end that bolted straight on using one bearing from the Kat and one from the CBR.
It uses risers fitted with MX bars.
The back end was a twin shocked CBR it was so high due to the CBR having a bracket fro the rear brake and not a torque arm but Russ says it handled wonderfully. The tail piece was off a CB900F.

It would have been perfect with the standard rear end in my opinion, and maybe even better with an RGV250 seat unit.
