Gilles' Katana

I'm restauring a Suzuki Katana. I have a lot of pictures that you could put
on your homepage...

- the engine has a big block with 1327cc, G3 Camshaft, big valves, ported
head, falicon crankshaft with Knife rods and straight cut gear, special
clutch basket, heavy duty cylinder studs (and case), titanium
retainers,.....

- the frame is very original (just coated with nickel), i have a special
krüger&juninger rear fork, a ducati 998 front fork with special attachments
that I did myself, ducati monster wheels, brembo brakes, LED cockpit
designed and engineered myself,.....

- the front fork is from a ducati 996 (incl. the breaks) and the rear fork is from Krüger&Juninger (Germany) custommade.

- for the front fork I had to design special "Gabelbrücke"(I don't know the english word.)

- the clutch and the crankshaft is from falicon (billet basket and straigth cut gear), I sent the crankshaft to Clearwater(Florida) to weld and to put special rods.("Knife"-rods)

- then you can see different steps building up the engine (With the gears, the crank,...)

- I'm running the engine with 1327cc with a APE-Bigblock and Wisecopistons. (APE-cylinder studs, APE cas studs

- you can also see the cylinderhead before portingjob. (I will send you soon pictures after portingjob) the cylinder head will have the biggest valves on a stock seat.(Ferrea Racing Valves, picture will also follow)

- Ignition is a dyna2000 digital

- the cockpit is also homemade. revcounter is made with the help of this man from germany you mensioned on you webside.

But now the pictures!...
