See The Suzuki Katana At o says one motorcycle ca n't provide the performance of a sport bike and the comfort of a long distance mach ine? At Suzuki, we believe one motorcycle can do both. And to prove . it. we built three: The Katana 600, 750, and 1100. The critically acclaimed Katana line refelects our ongoing commitment to a simple idea: That a motorcycle should be as diverse as the roads it is likely to encounter. W The result: Aerodyna micall y designed fairings that slip th rough the wind and red uce turbulence in th e cockpit for inc reased highway comfo rt. Adva nced perimeter-style chass is and soph isticated suspension systems for solid backroad hand ling. And the performan ce of engines bu ilt to th e same exacting standards as the GSX-R eng ines tha t have dominated U.S. road racing for t he past four yea rs: 'Ka ta na 600 While some sport bikes offer single-purpose performance at the expense of versatil ity, The Katana 600 's ba lance of performance, comfort and conven ience makes it t he new standard by which others are measured. Katana 750 Loo k a t the 1990 Katana 750 and yo u'll see the fam ily resemblance. A perimeter fra m e based o n t he 600 Kata na m a kes the 750 ag ile and re m arka bly comfortable. The sleek, flowin.g bodywork combines the best of the 600 and 1100 Katanas for d ist inct ive aerod ynamics. Katana 1100 If you think luxury and high performance have little in common, we'd like to introduce you to the Katana 1100. The moment you slide into the deeply padded seat, feel the ergonomic position of the handlebars, seat and f06tpegs, the contours of the ' controls, a nd notice the spacious, flowing cockpit, you'll know the Katana 1100 is no ord inary sport/touring machine. $SUZUKle ' The Katana models are engineered for experienced riders.
