Got a link? The closest I can find is
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...ategory=98 08
which looks quite good except there's no telling what the reserve is.

My mate Geoff had the Katana model in the mid '80s and liked it a lot.
Unfortunately he wrote it off by riding into a large piece of concrete
which was supposed to have a bollard on top so we didn't find out how
well they last. Suzukis of that era were pretty solid, with roller
bearings so they should be OK if they weren't thrashed, and thrashers
generally would not have gone for the shaft models.

Regards, Ian
