Most of the limited series pay tribute to important pilots, events, teams and partners. Exceptionally, it is the media that are in the spotlight on the honorary capes of certain motorcycles. In 2019, Suzuki and our colleagues from Motorlive present a very special edition of the 1000 Katana.
A single copy, a unique creation for the pleasure of a fan of Suz and the media whose name hits the tank. As deep as the night, highlighted with lines of drunkenness of a bloody burgundy, the Suzuki 1000 Katana Motorlive is as remarkable and desired as it is deserved. No sale, no show-bike, only a great gift for the winner of a competition that the media organized – https://www.motoservices.com/katana-motorlive-edition –
The lot is symbolic, and seasoned with small onions. Starting from a gray Katana, the Team’s Color workshop concocted this decoration, coating the motorcycle with the bubble to the end of the wheels; the front and the rear take advantage of the OCCAZ to play on two different shades.
A game that the saddle also plays, with its two-tone texture. Then, the neo-retro Suz is equipped with mirrors, a shoe, bar ends, a mounting plate on saddles and a rim painted amaranth red. The radial 4-piston brake calipers are bright red.
One of the prime pieces of this unique bike is on the breath side. The Katana Motorlive has the privilege of releasing a Leovince LV PRO silencer, developed for this streamlined roadster. Italian equipment comes with some carbon parts.
For information, remember that the 1000 Katana is built on the basis of a GSX-S 1000, and thus benefits from a 4-cylinder 149 horsepower from an old large GSX-R. The chassis is also derived from the hypersport, but of a different generation to the engine.
The style is inspired by the 1100 of the 80s; the electronics are a little more up-to-date but not excessively. 3-level traction control, ABS, Easy Start System assisted starting, Low RPM Assist starting aid and a full digital counter are used between the wires. In case of sporty driving, an assisted clutch with anti-dribble will be a good companion against rear swerves..
