It's an excellent bike, rides good, has durability, road attack tires, low maintenance and runs forever. It's a good sport touring bike, not to mention good looks and style. don't let this one pass you up.... read more

I got this bike for the wide look & comfortable for the second rider. The second rider is level with me and not sitting so high up above me like most GXSR or sport bikes. That is important I think, for long rides or fast speeds. I recommend this bike and will stand by it, not just for a great price or starter bike. It's way better in performance than GXSR...

I bought this bike as a left-over 2006 model. As a big guy I wanted a bike that would suit my size and not be too small. This is the bike. It has good looks, reliability and is reasonably comfortable. Later on I may trade up to a bigger bike, but for now I am as happy as Pam Anderson's pool boy.... read more

I bought my 2006 Katana 750 brand new (0 miles on the odometer) in November 2007. I got a killer deal. I have gotten so many compliments on the looks of the bike everywhere I go. I have even caught Ducati riders staring jealously at my Katana. The bike is super comfortable and the geometry is great for my height. I have only taken it to 9000rpm because I am in the break in period but I can assure you this has low and mid range power to spare. The bike really looks high quality fit and finish too. I think this is a highlight for Suzuki right now. They are really trying to be the best and it is showing. I don't think there is a better deal on a new sport bike out there. If you can still find this bike new, buy while you can. It is a keeper.

After enjoying a month on the new 06 Kat, I am glad I chose it. The longest ride I have had was over 1.5 hours. If I would of had my clear faceshield on I would of rode it longer. This bike is comfortable to ride and I love the curved roads. I love wide open throttle too. After 4K RPMs it just seems to have clean and responsive powerband. The front wheel stays planted on the round unlike other sport bikes. I wisk Suzuki would continue production because I sure would by another one. I think this is the best beginner and sport touring bike for a guy my size.

After lots of reviews and test rides, I settled on a Black Katana 750. And boy am I happy!! I have have the bike 4 days and my research has paid off. It is a very comfortable bike in town and on the open road. Very easy to ride and the power is there when you need it. Once you're on it you do not want to put it away!! Have had lots of compliments on the style from Harleys to Gixxers. Have ridden dirt bikes all my life and this bike is a perfect transition bike that I can't see getting bored of anytime soon. Just buy one if you can find one. You won't be sorry.
