There is no OFF, you have RES toward front , ON is all the way down, and prime toward back, PRI is used when it has been sitting for awhile. RES and ON wont let gas out unless bike is runnig. There is a vac hose on back of petcock that lets ON and RES work it must be connected..

    Thanks mate great help I also have that problem with my 250 katana. At the back of the tank underneath (seat side) there is a barb nipple (a hose should be connected) is that for overflow? No fuel comes out so I'm not sure what it's for any ideas? Cheers

Forward is reserve down is on back is prime-which will let gas flow into the carbs without being started. only use this when the bike has sat for a long period of time. their is no off setting!

1989 Suzuki Katana. What are the different key positions settings? How do I get to the battery please?

Question edited for clarity.
Question moved to one of the Katana Categories.

The Katana comes in 3 flavours - 600 F and 750 F and GSX1100.

I was hoping to find an owners manual. Switch normally has 3 positions, Off, Parking Lights (remove key) and Power On (key locked in place). The battery on a larger bike is normally accessed from under the seat, smaller bikes from behind a side panel (left side).

Which way is on position for gas on my 2005 katana gsx600f

Arrow pointing up on the knob is (RES) reserve to the side is (PRI) prime which bypasses the vacuum part of the tap and ON is downwards.use prime only when you have run out of fuel n on and you need to switch to reserve ,prime will let you refill the carbs without running the engine.

Where does the fuel switch need to be on a 1994 suzuki katana

i'm assuming you are talking about the petcock it should be pointed down to on PRI is prime and should only be used briefly to refill carbs after running out of fuel. res is for when you run low you don't wanna use res all the time cuz when you run out you're out and have no real warning although the kat does have a fuel guage it is still sucking all the crud off the bottom of the tank

Bought a 1995 suzuki gsx600f and can't get started. does anyone know which way the petcock needs to face for reserve right,left, or down? thanks

I have a 1990 GSXR1100. If it's the same as mine, which it probably is, then as u r looking at it REServe should b to the left. RUN str8 down and PRIme on the right. The petcock has small writing on it to indicate this.
