Got an ET, and an EF. I've always liked the way the tank and sidepanels on these bike seem to flow together! Do them in the right colour, uprate the running gear, keep all the bodywork stock. Nowt better!!!
There was a guy in Germany making replacement needles for the Katana Owners Club. One price for members, little bit more for non members. See if you van find FatBoyJohn? Pedda might know the guy I'm on about?
Bad news with the motor, Gary. You'll get it sorted 'tho! The rear hub. I've seen a GS750/100 hub used with an 'off the shelf' 5.5" rim. I'm sure it was on a highly modded Kat on the original site. Maybe someone can remember it?
