Post by: rydethis on June 30, 2009, 11:27:23 AM
May I come in  :oops:,

Someone told me abouot htis board over at Katriders...Just traded my '04 750 Katana for a '07 GS500 with 1240 miles on it!!  Both of us got what we wanted and I am excited about getting out there and riding more.  I live in Memphis .. been here since September..by way of ATL.  Ran across a great group of dirtbiking buys who also ride street.  I haven't been out riding yet as I am getting all the paper work done as we speak.  Looks like tomorrow or Thursday everything should be done and I can ride that bike this weekend....uhh what else... yeah I talk alot.  I'm just now getting into trail/dirt riding.  I have a TW200 '07...hmmm whats up with this 2007..my car is a 2007 and they are all blue...wow i never really thought a..... nm so yeah here is my other bike too: (http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr20/rydethis/th_401_dsc01046_1.jpg) (http://s465.photobucket.com/albums/rr20/rydethis/?action=view&current=401_dsc01046_1.jpg)

Glad things worked out. What made you decide to trade your katana for the GS? Just looking for something smaller?

Yeah Mr. Biggs (that's what I called him) was just a beast to handle!!  I didn't go through the proper stages of riding... Starting on a 750 was just NOT A GOOD IDEA.  It was lowered way to low... and my confidence was shot to h3ll riding it.  Now I feel like I've found a good bike to grow with and eventually do my first track on as well.  Not many katanas do well in track!!  Sorry... I'll try to keep my responses shorter lol and this was the short version!!

Well welcome,  i am surprised nobody has mentioned it already.. but you should have taken your kat rear suspension with you and the rear wheels as well...   first and most important modification is getting rid of the gs rear suspension and normally trading it for the katana suspension...   oh well.    :D  then the really hardcore ones in here  use the kat rear wheels as well.

I love the "Sugar Hill Gang" quote most don't even know who they are. The original Rap group... the late 70's wow brings back memories!
