Attached 'eye candy" for those interested in the baby sister Katana BTW, would like to know how to make a contribution ($$$$) to support the upkeep of the site? Its good to see the site up and functioning perfectly. Posting pics is so much easier now, thanks to those you made it happen.

Nice Gary - is that yours?

Those chain driven 550's where quite popular in South Africa.

That's certainly a neat and tidy 550 Gary, nicely done!

Glad you're enjoying the refreshed forum, and I can tell you it's now a breeze to maintain in comparison to the old one! Stay tuned as at some point soon I hope to have the donation link back up again. Got some things still pending post upgrade I've yet to do and that's one of them.

........ yeah, have bought it but have not taken possession as yet. Its a US import currently with the importer (Classic Motorcycle Sales) in Brisbane.

That's cool.

You do know that that'll count as a QLD scooter at next SoO......

I need one of these to complete the 1982 set. Do post your impressions when you've taken her for a spin

First decent ride this morning since taking possession ............. very surprised with the more than adequate performance given some reviews I have recently read. IMHO goes pretty much on par with the GS650 Kat. Lovely little bike with plenty of charisma

Looks pretty cool. Please post some more pics.
