Default I finally did it!!!
Last Thursday I picked up my new to me yellow 2001 Katana 600. I've already put over 350 miles on her since. Pictures soon to follow, I need to clean her up and borrow my Dad's digital Camera.

I still ride 50 miles a day during the week, but there is no fun in commuting.
The real fun is on the weekends.

Helpmeplease. Looks like a nice ride. I actually came close to buying a Kat. I've always liked the look. I needed something with a little more neutral stance, with wife and kids and all. Enjoy and ride safe.
