You've caught me out a bit here because all the bikes in the garage are a couple of cylinders short from being Katanas :roll:

The CX is my current bike, with the Guzzi being the old man's.

I'm a huge fan of mid-late 80's motorcycle design, and the Katanas really exemplify that styling. In particular, the Popup model.
With patience and a little luck, I'm hoping to have one to work on and ride soon. They're a bit of a fickle machine however; aside from the handful that are permanently revolving on Ebay for ~£4k, I'd be lucky to see one for sale.

The pop up do come up for sale from time to time at a more reasonable price than these £4 grand hobbies..
I have 2 one for 28 years the other for 10 yrs both in original condition and they have never been fickle.
Where in Cheshire are you ?
