hello all,
im 23 and new to the whole streetfighter deal. how i got into it......wrecked my 1992 katana 600, got it running agian, but butt naked
arty-smiley: i guess thats how they all start lol. buddy of mine told me it looks ugly stock naked, why not turn it into a streetfighter. never heard of it so i went to google images and drooled at what you guys can do! any whooo.....i just got my wiring harness fixed and cleaned up a smidge, put a stage 1 jet kit and a used vance and hines exhaust and just now ordered some pod filters. a buddy of mine has this exact setup on his 93 katana 600 and i love it, but noe the problem i am having is the well known katana handling. i know it'll never be as good as a modern bike, but i got the thing for $100 and got it running for another $200.
so i guess the main point is how can i get a sportier feel from my bike? i dont currently have any fabrication skills, nore a huge amount of money to spend aimlessly. but im also not dumb when it come to stuff, im an entry level mechanic.
any advice will be helpful, and when its daytime i will take pics and post the ugliness lol. thanks all, and i apologize for the length of this post.
