KUALA LUMPUR: The official distributor of Suzuki motorcycles in Malaysia recently announced the arrival of three new hunks in the town via a post on its social media account. Included in the list are the Katana, GSX-R1000, and GSX-R1000R. The new models imported from Japan are now available at all authorized Suzuki dealers across the nation for viewing.

2021 Suzuki Katana

Based on the Suzuki GSX-S1000, the Katana is one of the brand’s most unique offerings in the segment. It gets power from a four-stroke, liquid-cooled, inline-four, fuel-injected, 999-cc engine that delivers a maximum power output of 150 PS at 10,000 rpm and 108 Nm of torque at 9,500 rpm. The engine is mated to a six-speed gearbox and Suzuki Clutch Assist System. 

In terms of electronics, the bike features three-mode traction control and a dual-channel ABS as standard. The suspension duties are taken care of by a USD fork up front and a linked mono-shock setup on the back. For braking, the automaker has equipped the bike with twin discs with Brembo radial front calipers and a single rear disc.
