Yes, I noticed that he said that it was a 5 speed.  Its hard to find a clean 750 Katana bone stock with no mods or damage.  The starting price $3000 is great for and 06.  Most are starting at around $3800.  Someone will get a great deal.  I loved my 91 750 Kat.  Fast smooth and bulletproof.  It was a comfortable capable road bike.  Anyone wanting to move up from a GS500 should consider the Katana.  I've ridden the 600 as well, very quick and responsive, the 750 is a 600 on steroids.

Here's a link with pictures of my old Kat http://www.bearsrest.com/kat/ (http://www.bearsrest.com/kat/)

My first bike was an 89 Katana 750.  It was too big for a first bike, but a hell of a lot of fun after I had it figured out  O0
I would have looked at getting another one, but I just couldn't ignore the gas mileage advantage of the GS.

I figured it wouldn't last long.

My Katana with the jet kit, k&n and yoshi got about 30 mpg.  I think it was too rich.
