2006 Katana 750 Black and Silver.
Modifications:
Custom made frame sliders
Gel grips (yes they make a difference)
Corbin Gunfighter seat - Well worth the $$
Coming: Tinted sport touring windscreen

This bike is a great fit for me. I am 5'9" tall and 215lbs. The riding position is sport touring so is not hunched over. I did ride a bunch of different bikes, some naked, some with fairings etc..
I wanted a bike with full fairing but not a race bike, that fit my budget. That only left a couple of bikes available.

This bike is almost 500lbs with fluids but is rock solid at hwy speeds and above. Cross-winds do not move it around much. The Crow's Nest ride was my first long distance test and my body felt great when we were done.

The engine is the original GSX-R racing platform, air/oil cooled, 4 cylinder inline and is a proven performer. I love the purr of the 4 over the thumping of a twin. It has gobs of power, a redline of 12k (which I have only experienced 8500 and that is more than enough for me right now). The 600cc would have been more than fine but I was offered this one at a great price and the 750 will give better resale down the road.

If I think of more I will come back and fill in more.
