Katana Owners Club U.K.

Just a quick line to say thnaks for all the help and freindship that came with being a club member. But it's time for me to move on. Circumstances at home and work have conspired to make me take a long look at what I want out of life and bikes, and as much as I love my Katana's there is only space for a single bike and that needs to cope with long distance and reliable touring, commuting and track days.

Now before any of you start, I know all this can be done on the Kats as many of you have proved, and my 400 has been a epitomy of fun and reliability, but two up around the alps with luggage it may struggle with, so I'm keeping my 1050 Tiger (the other point is this is the one that I will lose the most on now if I sold it!)

You will find my 400 is now for sale in the for sale section and the 7/11 may well follow (although first dibs goes to another memebr who showed and inteerst a while back).

So back to the point, it's been great being a memebr of the club and I had a laugh at the few occasions where I met up with you all, so many thanks.

And I may be back in the future, as I have found you can never tell where life will lead.

I'll be popping in and out of the forum for a while, and may well catch you at various shows along the way.

Take care.

Mark.

Be a shame to loose you Mark, but you can still pop in for a chat even if you don't have a Kat for a while.

It was nice meeting you when you popped round, would've been nice if the southern rideout had happened.

Good luck in whatever comes next

Mark
It was a pleasure to have your company at the first Wussykat and your escort to the Chunnel.
Enjoy yourself on the Tiger and go ride the Alps - you won't regret it!!
See you on the Stelvio in June?

Garry (another ex-Kat owner)

Don't be a stranger there Mark espiecally as the donated 650 should be on a test run Tuesday afternoon ,(Everything crossed!!!!!)

It has been a pleasure to follow your trials and tribulations , both in the garage and on the track, aswell as the IAM and to share in your enthusiasm for evertything you were doing.

Just remember a Kat isn't just for Sundays , it's a way of life .
you'll be back!

Mate,sorry to be losing you but as Fossie says,please don't be a stranger,you're always welcome.
Good luck with whatever life throws at you in the future.

Thanks for the comments. Will most likely pop in every now and again, and who knows may be one day, another Kat will come along, but it will have to be when I have the time to look after it properly.

Cheers

Mark.

Yep im with all the other members here!

Stay in touch and hope everything works out in everything you do Mark

.............I knew that Robbie re-joining Take That would be a bad move............

All the best Mark, are you gonna go to wussy kat this year ?, a tiger's a (K)cat after all

Mark, never met you being a newbie ( hell, is this where I get I.D'd for a packet of fags???), but as the big guy said ' that's a freud who really knows where his towel is!'
Happy trials
