what to do ????????? [/img] hi,new to this site,not sure what to do with this.any ideas.i had an idea that i would get something,modern, (if you can call this modern)its the first bike ive had with monoshock,so it is modern to me,even though it's 20 plus years old,n to be honest,on reflection,its not my kind of thing.but it was cheap.the pic hereabouts has obviously been fannyd with (badly)by me,but that's what it looks like apart from the silencer,which is a marshall deeptone,also bear in mind im the poorest person in britain.

I beg to differ Sir. I think you'll find I already hold that title! A warm & snuggly welcome to the website. Pull up a beanbag & make yourself at home. I like that Suzi. Is it a Katana or a modern variation on the theme? I'm still stuck in the late 70s/early 80s as far as bikes are concerned. Only modern ones I've owned were a Speed Triple & a CB1000. I'd happily ride that as an everyday work bike though. And, no, I haven't got the money to buy it off you! Of course, you could always trike it!

its a gsx750es,very similar to a late model 750 kat,in fact the reg no ends with D***KAT,but confusingly its as popular as a pork pie in a rabbi's fridge ,whereas the 750 kat is very popular,n basicly its the bodywork thats different.

dont really have anything in mind for it,but at the moment its the only bike ive got,or can afford,IMO its not worth enough to sell and get something else,so something needs to be done,dont like the euro kind of style,did think about trying to get a normal type gs 750 tank,and ratting it,but ??

Getting rid of the dodgy white seat would be a start!

dodgy white seat is just bare foam at the mo,need to find upholstery supplier in glasgow.think the prob is,not sport bike (allbe it 80s style)minded at all,far too old for that.
