Suzuki Hayabusa 2021

Since its debut in 1999, the Hayabusa has captured the imagination of a whole generation of motorcyclists by being the first production motorcycle to reach speeds of 300 km/h (299 to 312 km/h at the time). Suzuki has revived a legend without derogating from the original model's codes. Unquestionably, an iconic model aiming for a more confident sequel. For this level of performance and technology, his price remains "reasonable."

The Hayabusa has been a part of Suzuki's heritage for almost 20 years. In fact, by launching the "faucon," which embodied the must-have of the market in the maximum-speed race that the constructors were delivering at the time, the Japanese brand had managed to strike gold in the 1990s. Consider the Honda CBR 1100 XX Super Blackbird, which is as fast as it is stylish, but less powerful than the Suzuki; Recall the Kawasaki ZX-12R, which was inspired by aviation at the time and predated the current H2, but never achieved the same level of success as the Hayabusa.

With its aerodynamic roundouillard design, the Suzuki GSX 1300 R sold more over 115 000 units in its first generation before being replaced by a second generation in 2008. A second wave allowed for the production of 75 000 additional models without revolutionizing the concept. But, after eight years of no change and a long hiatus from the Hayabusa catalog, it was time to venture into the third dimension of the vehicle.

The Suzuki Hayabusa 2021 is packed with technology, and the speed regulator will come in handy!

The new Hayabusa offers a variety of driving modes, as well as a traction control system that can be adjusted on ten levels, three engine modes, a programmable shifter up&down, a programmable anti-wheeling system that can be adjusted on ten levels, three engine management modes, a speed limiter, a launch control system that can be adjusted on three levels, a speed regulator, a combined brake system, a deceleration control system, and even.

Suzuki has so put together a package to keep up with the latest trends in the field while also innovating. Between the two large analog cadrans that have been kept to connect to the original mind, there is an electronic paramétrable on the little LCD screen. We became quite lisible as a result of their careful attention! The headlights are clearly LED, and despite its 264 kg, the Hayabusa 2021 is still a lovely baby to bring home.

We salute Suzuki's audacity in resurrecting such a legend on two wheels. A motorcycle that is unquestionably a part of the dream, thanks to its high-powered and unquestionably more exploitable performance than the current 1 000cc Superbike Replica.
