2019 Katana test: new fit for the Suzuki maxiroadster
Suzuki is making a daring bet on the roadster segment in 2019 by launching a new Katana. A motorcycle based on the underrated GSX-S1000, with the cult name but with a contested look. Site was able to try it in Japan and two months before its release in France. Banzai !
