Seats were divided; one color on the front half, another color at the rear.
1983 Suzuki Katana 1100 Pictures
The 1983 Suzuki Katana's bizarre styling set new standards for strangeness in motorcycles, from its half-moon front fender to its dual tone seat. But is was hardly "all show no go," as the 1100-cc four featured double overhead cams and four valves per cylinder.
Handling was aided by a stiff suspension with antidive forks.
The half-moon fenders helped create the Katana's unique, modern look.
The Katana integrated its speedometer and tachometer into a single gauge pod.
