From the sharp lines defining the length of its body, to the rider-friendly performance of its engine, every detail of the Suzuki KATANA speaks of distinctive beauty.
While its design pays homage to the iconic GSX1100S KATANA—the machine that stole the hearts of riders around the world in 1981—today’s KATANA is a thoroughly modern machine that is breathtaking to behold and equally inspiring to ride.
Suzuki says, "This is not a retro-styling exercise but a modern performance motorcycle that is destined to be as revolutionary as the original KATANA." Want to see the specs for the 2020 Katana? So do we! Here is what they will cop to:
