I misread your statement. It really isn't supported that well, I'm sure if it ever sells, the guy would notice pretty quick if it broke...... :wtf:

Back in 83 at the Aspen 6 hour road race, I went over to congratulate the winners. They were riding a 1000 Katana. I was looking at the bike and the top of the front down tubes were broken right off. I pointed it out, and they laughed, and said it did that all the time...... :eh:

I didn't really care for the bike when I first saw it, don't really care for it now either. Some of the problem was when it was first cycling on Ebay it was right around the same time Cabbie finished up his gsxr framed triple. The thought and workmanship that went into his bike made this one look even more like a hack job.

I think Jim is correct, that engine looks one sided to clear the tire. :thumbup:
