New summer toy and gas saver.

[moels]

Well, I bought my nephews little 150cc scooter because he wanted a 50cc like his buddy's. I figured with the price of gas it would be great for me. Well, it was, for about 3 days. I needed more power! Sold it in one day for what I paid for it and picked up a 600cc sport bike today. Pics below:

1995 Katana 600

looks like a nice bike.......... for my girlfriend.. j/k man you will ride that for a couple of months and then again "want more power"

[moels]

lol! No, I've driven about every size bike known to man and I love power, but I am 37 and a single dad of 3. I think a 600 is enough to keep me out of trouble or a morgue.

I knew it might get some rips on the colors, but it's purple not pink! lol

lol at the scooter...I think at least half my class had scooters during the summer of our sophmore year. Police would bust us for riding in too large a group...would say we were screwing around too much...which was true, of course.

We use to take the girls' scooters and ride them around. I actually got pulled over one friday night by a cop who wanted to know how I could ride a wheelie on one. lol

A friend of mine has a all black katana he would have let go dirt cheap. I wish I would have known you didnt mind those things.

Its painfull to see one of those things still around..... but, to each their own, it is better than the scooter by far, and still get good mileage.

Hey if you want it painted cheaply let me know. I've painted a few bikes with rattle cans.. Take off the stickers, sand it all real good and take your time. It'll turn out nice..

May be a can-o-tuna but yes it will get decent mileage.

Did the same thing to my last bike and it turned out darn good. I will probably just replace the seats and paint the gas tank and pull the stickers. All black will look ok. I thought it was decent at first, but the more I look at it, the more it looks like a Pride Fest bike. lol

Update, did some work to the bike to make it look a little non-gayer. Still gotta get some flush mount blinkers out back and find either a 4 into 1 system or get two slip-on's to get a better tone i on this thing.

Thanks Mark! It was a pain in the ass getting all the decal glue off the plastics, but I finally got done today. There's a few more little things I have in mind for it too, but it's fine for now.
