Katana Owners Club U.K.

Hello

Going to be listing this frame and other parts soon, but want to confirm frame model,I think it’s an sz

Frame number GS110XOO530827

Engine number GS110X-150339

Thanks very much for your time

Looks like an SZ from the front engine mounting point.

Does it have any documents? V5 etc.

What sort of price are you thinking of?
Out of curiosity only……

…….obviously

Sorry should have mentioned I have v5
Declared manufactured 1982
Date first reg in U.K. 1989
It came with kph clocks but unsure if there the original ones

Like yourself I thought of front engine mounts,just want to double check

Obviously Not planning to sell separately as I will list (here only) the complete project as a job lot,hopefully someone will restore

Thanks for your input

I’ve just notice it doesn’t mention “overseas” on the special notes

That'll explain the kp/h clocks then and the 1989 registration.

Indeed,the engine is also black Would the paint come of like this if it was factory black or is it a silver engine painted black (if that makes sense), again thanks for input

That engine has been painted aftermarket,its the wrong colour and type. Ultimately it dosen't really matter 40 years on , its going get blasted and recoated eitherway I'd have thought.

Very true,just thought I throw it into the mix

Ok I’m gonna say it’s an sz then,I’ll try and put an add together that makes sense , I’ve got pics of most things but not sure to post umpteen pics on here or ask serious buyers to email for pics

Thanks for all your input and time

Cheers steve

frame is SZ.
frame is also bent on the right side footpeg carrier. they almost always bend where the rear brake pivot is welded into the lower tube. its visibly bent in the pic. the lower tube should be straight but the forces of braking bend the tube in time.

Thanks for that,I see what you mean,hope it doesn’t put people off , I’m hoping that people will see it as more of a design fault than a dodgy bent frame
