Tamiya 14065 Suzuki GSX1100S Katana (1/12)

The Tamiya 14065 Suzuki GSX1100S Katana 1:12 scale plastic model kit is an excellent miniature of the iconic motorcycle that has forever made its mark in automotive history. The original Suzuki GSX1100S Katana is a Japanese road motorcycle produced by Suzuki from 1981 to 1983, which became an icon of the late '70s and early '80s and a stylistic breakthrough thanks to its bold silhouette designed by the German Target Design team. Its name “Katana” is derived from the classic Japanese sword, reflecting the aggressive and modern look of the motorcycle. The vehicle was mainly used on public roads, but due to its performance, it was valued by sports riding enthusiasts and utilized in endurance racing, especially in Europe.
