Engineered by Suzuki for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2025 Suzuki Katana utilizes a 999 cc (61 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 152 HP (110.9 kW) at 10,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 106 Nm (78.2 lb-ft) at 9,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 152.2 HP per liter and a 750 rpm working window between peak torque (9,250 rpm) and peak power (10,000 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Katana measures 215 kg (474 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.71 HP/kg (1.41 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 825 mm (32.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,460 mm (57.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.08 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 236 km (147 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 322 km/h (200 mph).
Within MotoLibrary's Suzuki archive, this model family spans 8 indexed model years from 2019 to 2026, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
