Suzuki Katana WallpapersThe original Suzuki Katana was a then-novel sports motorcycle designed in 1979 - 1980 time frame by the southern Bavarian firm of Target Design at the request of Suzuki Deutschland specifically for their market needs.The Katana name was later applied to a range of sports-touring motorcycles in North America through the 2006 model year also offered in Europe but without the Katana moniker, and starting at the change of the millennia to a line of 49cc/50cc scooters in Europe.
The three-man Target Design team consisted of Hans Muth, Jan Fellstrom and Hans-Georg Kasten. Muth penned the original design sketches used NB this is in fact completly incorrect the original sketches which were used were drawn by Jan Fellstrom. A court case resulted as a result of Muth's claims to have done the sketches but the original sketches were produced which had in fact Fellstrom's signature on them Muth has always tried to take credit for the Katana but in fact played a very small creative role in the project the revolutionary styling of the bike was completely down to Fellstrom, and is still active in the motorcycle industry, building custom motorcycles under his own name, as well as have done design work for the likes of BMW motorcycles such as the R90S, R100, R35 and R65 models and the original BMW 2002 model. Hans-Georg Kasten was still with Target Design as of 2003.The design worked through several variations, with the public being allowed to see the ED1 and ED2 versions.
