All I have to say to suzuki is:

IF IT AIN"T BROKE DON"T FIX IT!

Put a better seat on it and that's about it. I love the performance of this bike. It was perfect for my needs and I don't need EFI to feel good about myself. Give it an EFI option if they want, but I like carbs. Change is not always good.

I have a 1980 GS550E.

I want a 1982 (I think, should be first year) GS1100 Katana.

My ride is a 96 GSF600 bandit. Definately a fun ride.

looking at the SV1000 for my next bike.

My current ride is a Boulevard M50 Limited. I would love to add a V-Strom 1000 to the mix.

But then again, how about that B-King?

Well stop wheelieing (sp?) your Vespa, sell it, and get the Katana!

I believe if you click central ozzy's link in his sig there are some pretty good pics of an old katana. There might even be a few wheelie shots if I remember correctly.

EDIT look in his photos and go to "bikes i have owned". Man those bikes were monstrous.

92 600 katana here.

really. really really really want a sixfiddy v-strom.

and an s40.

You call that bike ugly? Oh my god, it's beautiful! Pass me the lube and a box of kleenex.
