hey everyone- just bought a 2000 katana 600 the other day and it seems to bounce around quite a bit. it doesn't really hold to the road like other bikes i have ridden. any ideas why? has anyone had this problem or know anyone who has?

We'd venture to guess that the suspension is worn out on your Katana 600. The suspension components were bargain-basement items when brand new, and it didn't take many miles to wear them out and make the suspension action even more loose than it already was.
