Or get it from the Club Katana France homepage :

By the way, if you want to get CKF info directly by e-mail, drop me a line at

Thank you, that was a very good read, i've still got a copy of that 'motorcycling' magazine from 1980 that previewed the katanas, looking at the mv retro bike i noticed that the exhaust looks exactly like the 4 into 1 system on my 250 kat :)

You're welcome guys !
Sparki, I just make it page by page under Corel Draw, (same vector drawing program I use for my posters) and convert each page to PDF before assembly. I find it pretty convenient as you can place every element where you want, without too much hassle. Manages columns, too, which is handy for the text ;-)
There's no real page layout management though, I do it by eye/hand !
I guess the same could be done with Adobe Illustrator but I've never been comfortable with it ;-p
