2021 Suzuki Katana

Suzuki Malaysia officially announced the availability of the 2021 Katana at the local dealership.

The hyper-naked motorcycle now joins the arrival of the 2021 GSX-R1000 and GSX-R1000R in Malaysia.

Suzuki Malaysia has yet to release the pricing, but our initial survey at Suzuki’s dealership reveals a price tag of RM77,989.

The 999cc Katana produced 147hp @ 10,000rpm and 108Nm @ 9,500rpm mated to a 6-speed transmission.

While the original Katana was based on the GS1100E, the new generation Katana is built upon the proven of the GSX-R1000 and GSX-S1000.

The 2021 Katana offers smooth shifting and engine braking thanks to Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS), a technology borrowed from the GSX-R1000R.

Other exciting features include:

  • twin-spar aluminium frame
  • fully-adjustable KYB suspension
  • Suzuki Advanced Traction Control
  • twin Brembo monobloc callipers
  • Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)

The interested party can take a closer look at the 2021 Katana at Suzuki Malaysia authorized dealers nationwide.

The Suzuki Katana has had quite a cult following ever since its birth ever since its release in the 1980s and the latest 2019 reincarnation model is nothing short of a crowd favourite from several markets around the globe. News about a ‘baby’ Katana model have been popping up and we might just see the appearance of the Suzuki Katana 125R sooner than we think. (more…)
