Quote from: scratchNope. And I wouldn't use anyplace where the fairing bolts up to, as those are just welded on tabs to the frame and wouldn't be very strong for withstanding any impacts. You may have to drill the frame to attach any existing sliders for other bikes.

Could be. The older generation 4-valve per cyl heads used rocker arms pivoting on shafts which look much like what your picture shows. Keep dreaming, I guess.

Those are most definitly new fork reflectors. My 02 had rectangular ones with cheap flimsy brackets.

i like how suzuki took it back and stuck the old school katana "s" on the tank. looks real slick like that. i also would rather have it in black myself

Then again, those bolts are located where I believe they line bore the cam bearing oil galleys. Plus, positioning appears a bit too low for rocker arm shafts. False alarm, I guess.

I noticed that the exhaust tip on the can is larger in diameter than my 93, not the outside circle that doesnt matter, but the inside one looks like its quite a bit bigger, or maybe the outside one is smaller ;), but I still think the inside one is bigger, could this mean more exhaust flow, since it may have 4 valves per cylinder, I dont know just a thought.

your right it does look bigger than stock we are used to. I will check my photo's of the rear to see what comes of it.
