Suzuki has showcased the all-new 2020 Katana at the ongoing 2018 EICMA motorcycle show in Milan, Italy. The 2020 Suzuki Katana was recently unveiled for the first time in October this year at the 2018 Intermot motorcycle show in Cologne, Germany. The new Suzuki Katana will be a comeback of an age-old name which was a popular name from Suzuki during the 1980s and 1990s, and a popular sport tourering motorcycle of its time. The 2020 Suzuki Katana shares its underpinnings with the Suzuki GSX-S1000F and is powered by the same 999 cc, in-line four cylinder engine which puts out 147 bhp at 10,000 rpm and 105 Nm of peak torque at 9,500 rpm.
Suzuki Motorcycle India has announced attractive finance schemes for its range of large capacity motorcycles in the country including the GSX-S1000, GSX-S1000F, V-Strom and Intruder. The iconic Suzuki Hayabusa also gets an attractive interest rate as part of the limited period offer.
Suzuki Motorcycles has given a few updates the GSX-S1000 for 2017, internationally. The 2017 model now gets an uprated engine which now produces 148 bhp, which is a bump of 10 bhp from the earlier 138 bhp. Also, the peak torque is now up from 106 Nm to 108 Nm. Suzuki says that the crankcase now gets ventilation holes, which is the reason for the bump in the power.
The Suzuki GSX-S1000 offers a very capable roadster that has a lot going for it. It's a reasonably comfortable sport naked with extremely high performance that can be used as an everyday street bike, and even an occasional track tool.
