Katana Owners Club U.K.

Hi all
New to the group. I have a UK-registered-from-new, 1982 Suzuki GSX1000SZ in pretty standard trim, with an indicated 8,355 miles on the clock. Just a bit of work to do to bleed the brakes and then get out and about on her.
I've been riding for 44 years now and a good mate of mine, Bob (don't know if he is on here?) also has a UK-from-new '82 1000SZ. This one is his second, having bought his first 1000 brand new in 1982 from Wall & Sagar in Lancaster, for the enormous sum of £2,550!!
That's three of the 166 - are there any other 1000 owners on here? I expect there are a few and be good to catch up with fellow owners in due course.
Cheers
Mick

Hi Mick and welcome. There's also a FB group if you do FB. I'm guessing you mean Bobster with the 1000 (got a GT250 as well I think). He used to be on here but not recently but I've seen him comment a few times in the FB group.

Hi UB. Not sure about the name Bobster, but this is my mate Bob with his original 1000SZ and his current one - see photos in viewtopic.php?f=4&t=9602. Cheers. Mick

Welcome aboard!

Victor 4 AKA Jonty has one on the road, I’m sure he’ll be along soon.

There are a few others as well……

Welcome board, yes I've got a 1000, same as I had years ago, ride it all the time, all weathers!
