      Cool bike and an excellent write-up.
      Had to laugh about being a 1%er. Small electrics have screwed up my projects at times as well.
      No matter how small the role was i like reading about kids being involved.

        Nice job! Normally I am not a fan of yellow but that looks exceptionally good. Everything blends and looks complete, GREAT WORK!

          Thanks gentlemen! It's been *great* to get the old girl back together and on the road once again. The gearbox is sweet, the brakes are sharp, and the black frame fits so much better with the yellow bodywork than the previous grey powder-coat ever did.

          So I'm very happy with the Katana. She might be a bit of a handful around town, but simply a superb motorcycle when you're out on the open road, gunning down a few deserted stretches of tarmac.

            Great job, she looks like she'll fly! Great website as well. Where/who did you set that up with? I like that idea of your own website for all your bikes and rebuilds, job well done.

              G'day azr,

              Glad you like the website. I write the HTML for it myself using Alleycode, and upload it to the server using Cute FTP. The server space itself is rented off a mate of a mate. The domain name was reserved and purchased via the GoDaddy crew.

              Cheers,
              Mike.
