Limeyglue Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Here is my latest project. Its a Tamiya Suzuki Katana fitted with Tamiya Honda RC30 wheels, forks and swingarm. I also removed the rear footpeg hangers and the standard rear brake master cylinder and main stand mounts. The next job is to fabricate a new crossmember for the monoshock top mount. thanks for looking Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peteski Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Not very familiar with that type of a motorcycle, but it looks like an interesting kit-bash project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am. I remember being quite unaware of these until one rolled up beside me at a traffic light. I was on a '78 Suzuki. The Katana was alien spacecraft stuff compared to everything else at the time.

Limeyglue Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 I managed to do a bit more on this. I scratch built the rear shock mounts and fitted the footpegs from the RC30 kit and modified the clutch lever from hydraulic to cable. I have also made a start on the exhaust using the kit down pipes and changing them to a four into one i have yet to make a collector.
