Title: I sold her...

My first girl

Well after 12,300 miles and 3.5 years.... Tuesday the 9th of September she got a new owner.   I sold her.  Kind of sad at first.    

I went and looked at several different bikes.  I wanted an aluminum frame and 100+hp  but finally realized that being a daily driver, double up,  just cruising around is what I wanted.  Looked at some 96 to 2004 GSXRs, CBRs, FZR6s, and of course the Ninja.  Then an unravaged 2000 600 Katana with 2021 miles fell in my lap.  Everything on it is stock except the grips and pipe..  a Scorpion,  it is not perfect, but minor items that I can fix.  Bike was laid down on left side in grass going about 15 to 20 mph.  No broken plastic, no bent brackets, and just suffered some scratches and paint pealing on gas tank.      

Here my new girl is...

BTW I will be selling some stock parts from the gs and a set of the custom bars(clip-on like style) made by the guy on here.  give me a day to get pics up on the 4sale board.
