Couldn't help it...So I took it for a quick blat. Feels a lot lighter than I remember Kats were. Drops into a corner easily too.

The throttle is really stiff, but those Keihins fuckin roar when it winds up.[8D]

Now I really got to clean up the garage and get into my Sunday drinks.

It's already 1127. If I bore it it would have to be over 1200:)

I would be happy to do a swap Large ;) 17 inch front and rear, EFE front end, RGV callipers and lots of polishing [8D]. Had plans of doing what you just bought, but ran out of interest when i bought a 1400 [:p]

I have another one in pieces that I bought off egay one afternoon while I was pissed:D. I wanted to do it original, with wide wire wheels, then I found OSS and I nearly bought a K4 front end, brakes and wheels a week ago, but when I did the maths I figured at least 10K to do it properly...then I rang a guy about a GSXR rolling chassis he was selling....and it turned out he had this one....yada yada.

Are they just standard Kat wire hubs with wide rims?

Yep, standard hubs with heavy duty stainless spokes, Akront rims 2 1/2 inch & 4 1/4 inch i bought about 10 yrs ago. Can i ask what you payed for the Kat?

22-01-2006, 04:14 PM
Has that got a GSXR motor?
