The American Samurai Association Katana Newsletter is coming out of retirement! Vern Heywood will provide the editorial direction, Katana creator Mario (Papa Bear) Raco and a staff of volunteers will recreate the same quality found in the the original Katana. New and exciting features will be added with articles coming from the volunteer staff and Suzuki aftermarket vendors like Calmini, Petroworks, Summit Offroad, and of course Victory Engineering.

As Suzuki owners we have a new tool that was not available when the Katana was first published, the Internet. We now have instant access to 100s of Suzuki owners and their ideas. We are hoping Suzuki owners will share their experiences. If you have an article for the Katana send it to: mailto:asa@rubicon.off-road.com

We are a non-profit organization created to benefit the Suzuki owner and assure the Suzuki becomes a fourwheeling classic instead of an "extinct species". Our passion is fourwheeling on the trail and through the back country where the Suzuki really shines. Of course if you prefer the city streets and car shows that's fine. Our common goal is to keep parts and services available for our rigs.

Sign up now for your subscription to the Katana, the official news letter of the American Suzuki Association. $25/year for ASA membership which will include the newsletter, membership card, member list and a decal.

Please see the American Suzuki Association Site http://www.off-road.com/~asa for more information.
