The quarter litre Katana would finally offer a chance to the Japanese biking public to own a bike they had built and lusted over but been forbidden to use. For optimum sales the 1991 Kat would have to be in the 250cc category the biggest market sector after the million-selling mopeds. This time the bike would be built for the Japanese not the Europeans. So what if it wasn’t as fast as the original? It looked just like the real thing, and in Japan image is everything. The response was phenomenal, even for piranha-like Japanese consumers. A decade of pent-up desire quickly translated into a showroom stampede. within a month of its launch in May 1991, the 250 Katana became the best-selling bike on the market for four consecutive months. It isn’t hard to see why. The original Hans Muth design still looks as fresh as it did at the Cologne Show in 1980.
