Suzuki Hayabusa – The Legendary Bike from Suzuki

Even though the new bike has many new designs and functional parts, it is still clear that it is a Hayabusa. It looks like the old bike to bring back memories, but it’s also different enough to stand out from the same.

The new Hayabusa has better aerodynamics, which will help it not only go incredibly fast but also stay stable at those speeds.

The front of the 2021 Hayabusa is similar to the last model, but the back gets completely changed. It has a brand-new set of two taillights, and the back of the back seat is also bigger. And the new dual exhausts, of course.

It has new LED headlights that look like the ones on the GSX-R1000R. The fairing is also changed to protect the rider better. For example, the chrome strip around the rider’s legs makes the air flow smoother.

The Kanji, Japanese writing, has also been changed on the fairing. The 5-dial cluster of instruments got updated with new graphics and a redesigned colour TFT MID unit in the middle.

Three colours options for the Suzuki Hayabusa are available in the market:

• Glass Sparkle Black / Candy Burnt Gold
• Metallic Mat Sword Silver / Candy Daring Red
• Pearl Brilliant White / Metallic Mat Stellar Blue

The Suzuki Hayabusa only comes in one variant:

• STD

The bike has the same engine with the same bore and stroke (81mm X 65mm) that was introduced in 2008. The engine now meets Euro V emissions standards and produces 187bhp at 9,700 rpm.

A choice of three modes allows the rider to match the engine speed at launch. Mode 1 restricts engine speed to 4,000 rpm on launch, Mode 2 to 6,000 rpm, and Mode 3 – the fastest mode – to 8,000 rpm.

The engine has modified new pistons, a redesigned camshaft, a new assist-and-spiller clutch, and a modified gearbox with the addition of an up/down quickshifter.

The active speed limiter system, a first in the motorcycle industry, allows the rider to set a speed they do not want to exceed and then accelerate and decelerate as they please up to that speed.

The speed can be easily adjusted upward or downward using the mode/set switch on the left handlebar and set from 31 km/h to 200 km/h while riding in second gear or higher at 2,000 to 7,000 rpm. After braking, the proper resume function re-engages the system and accelerates to the most current speed setting.

The system combines IMU-derived vehicle posture data with front and rear wheel speed sensor data to enable ABS activation in a straight line and when leaning into a corner. As a result, the bike is less likely to push itself upright or lose traction, preferring to maintain its radius and lean angle to trace your intended line through the corner better.

Hill Hold Control is intended to engage the rear brake for 30 seconds after coming to a stop while facing uphill on an incline, even if the brake lever or pedal is released.

A 6-speed gearbox with a quick two-way shifter and an auto blipper handles transmission duties.

The suspension on the new Suzuki Hayabusa comprises fully adjustable KYB inverted forks with mono-shocks.

The brakes of Suzuki Hayabusa are equipped with Brembo Styelma Calipers, which are of the highest quality, gripping 320 mm front discs and providing dependable stopping power!
