The 250 version of Suzuki's Katana-styled sports roadster, a liquid-cooled four-cylinder with an aggressive look. It revs hard to a high redline, handles and brakes better than its modest size suggests, and was imported to markets such as Britain as a grey import; testers criticised the firm seat and middling fuel economy.
