Hmmm, The Katana looks more like the 650, (GS650G shaft drive)

I had one as well. a great bike.

zevk · « **Reply #28 on:** October 05, 2013, 07:20:55 PM »

hi Brock, not a shaft drive and it was a Katana.
engine underpowered, heavy but smooth ride

Brock · « **Reply #29 on:** October 05, 2013, 07:29:01 PM »

Not the shaft, then it was 750. The 650 had a ton of power, ( was actualy 685cc ). Had mine up to 195 once if I remember correctly.

Interesting as I can't remember seeing a chain drive Katana styled like the 650 shaft one - must have been small numbers of them. The first 750 styled like the 1100 was the first, and I remember the pop up headlight 750 Katana.

This seems to be the 750 I remember,

This was the 650 (the one I had.

The 750 shown way above seems to be a mix of the 650 styling with the 750. That rear cog looks huge. Perhaps it was a model not released in Oz (looking at the coast line)

This was taken at a lookout just off the South Gippsland Highway above Foster (VIC), on the weekend of the 2011 Groggy Wombat Rally. It rained just about all weekend, hence now known as the Soggy Wombat Rally, well for us anyway.......

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Easy Lionel,

like this:

You had already done the hard part.
The next thing to do is click on the far right panel on the Photobucket page next to the letters IMG

It will then say "copied". It's now in your clipboard.
Go to the posting you're writing, put the cursor where you want it and type "CTRL-V" ('insert' in MSnot) - or right click/paste, and walla. It's there, done & dusted!

That must be the third time I've seen that row of Housing Commission houses.

Come to think of it............ the first of my bikes to be wrapped around a tree, unfortunately not the last

Biggles · « **Reply #45 on:** December 30, 2013, 08:24:06 PM »

In your case, Totgas, using ImageShack, you need to click on the Picture Icon under the "B" in the buttons above the edit box. Then in ImageShack, copy the URL in the panel on the right that says "DIRECT". Paste that between the two "img" blocks that the button gave you and you get the full size piccie in all its magnificence.
