    Fucking love that colour mate! It's a perfect colour for that bike. What colour are the decals going to be?
    Tank will be getting a red/black yoshimura logo over the top of a white suzuki, most other decals will be white or light gray (trying to go subtle). You should see the color in person...killer! The metal flake is just big enough to give it some life/depth in the sunlight, those Italians are spot on their shit sometimes

    After all that crap with the engine mounts,I think you've done the right thing, the engine's weight will be a bit further forward,and the bonus being the front end will be more planted.
    Great project mate, you're doing a bang up job of it too[8D]

    Latest update...ran out of time to finish the katana before the move. Wound up crating it and sticking on the truck with us for the drive north. Between, getting settled, getting the shop up and running, and a trip we have to make back to California next week, looks like I won't be able to get back to the bike for at least a month...makes me very sad.

    Right before I closed up the crate...

    The guy with the drag kat (if he's the same guy you mean - the one that smoked it up and did that mad dance of the line with no traction) said he'd bring his 2L one if we do it again next year!

    Not quite finished with the 1157 but I had to run to Canada yesterday to pickup another sad Katana that needed a home. Not sure if we used a big enough fork lift to load it in the truck!

    She was unloved hey mate? Thta back tyre is square from sitting for so long. ....and you're right, you could have used a bigger forklift mate. How far north are you if Canada ain't far?
