Not a concept bike. A popular conversion.
Sold as a kit or a new bike I think.
I did think about it, as a "DIY job" but after riding a couple of
GSX14's recently I think i'll give it a miss.

Im always on the look out for another Kat,
(another black motor SD / extra clutch / alloy peg / GSXR style wheel model)
Had mine for many years, Sold it when I left the UK.
My current ET was to give me my "Air-cooled GSX" fix but its not the same.
Not looking its best, but this was mine........

Not nice.
Reminds me of those awful GS650 shafts they stuck the Katana
logo on to try and give them some cred.
GSXR1000 isnt the ideal donor.
Busa/B-King would be better.
RE: Katana cross k9 gixxer thousand - big kev - 15-07-2009
there was 2 katanas the 750an the 1100
