About this model
About the Suzuki Katana 1000
The Suzuki GSX1000S Katana is an iconic naked sport-tourer produced from 1981 to 1985, shaped by the revolutionary design of Hans Muth at Target Design. The air-cooled 998cc four-cylinder DOHC engine with four valves per cylinder produced impressive power for its era, wrapped in a distinctive wedge-shaped fairing and futuristic handlebars. The Katana marked a clean break from Japanese motorcycle tradition and set a new design benchmark.
The Katana appeals to experienced riders who appreciate classic Japanese sportbikes with strong character. The half-fairing provides wind protection for longer journeys, while the compact dimensions also work in city traffic. It competes within the classic segment against the Honda CB900F and Kawasaki Z1000. Well-maintained examples are now sought-after collectibles.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Check the carburettors for blockages and needle wear; the four Mikuni carbs are prone to hardened rubber and clogging after long storage.
- Inspect for oil leaks at the cylinder head gaskets; a common issue at higher mileage on the air-cooled engine.
- Check the original anti-dive front fork for correct operation; the early hydraulic systems often no longer function properly.
- Look out for originality: many Katanas have been modified or fitted with non-original exhausts and fairings, which significantly affects collectible value.
