It's well done, but I don't like it, I don't like the exhaust, the seat, the swingarm, the forks and the wheels, apart from those it's great.

It's missing the iconic (for me) Katana clocks.

I still think that might be an R1 tail unit :)

Never a great fan of Katanas, but I like that.

I think it's a bike I could easily find garage space for. I lusted after the original Katana but didn't have the funds to get one.

It's funny, but the back end swings it for me after all the stupid shite and brown seats

That looks SO much nicer than Suzuki's own re-born Katana, a bike which hugely disappointed me when I saw it in the flesh for the first time.

I'd have it in a second.
