Initially, I was a bit apprehensive about riding the Hayabusa. it’s not like that the 200 odd bhp scared me. it wasen’t the acceleration either that I was worried about, or the top speed of 299+ km/h. It was the weight and the sheer size of this motorcycle, sportbikes are meant to be light, sleek and flickable but then, the Busa enters the picture and all of that goes away. I meant it’s more than 2 meters long and has a wheelbase of 1480 milimeters and at 260 kg. i’m not even sure if Suzuki even thought about the weight reduction on this motorcycle. it’s also the widest thing between my legs in all these years. But when I drove the Hayabusa for the very first time and(what is the first question that comes to my mind) does it corner?.The Hayabusa gives a very bulky and stable impression but I always thought that it would perform poorly in corners and guess! I was completely wrong. The Hayabusa dosen’t go into the corners with the usual eagerness of a liter bike and its ok cause it’s a straight line bike. It has to be led into the corner smoothly but mid corner stability is just amazing.The long sweeping corners favors the motercycle and tight hairpin bends or chicanes won’t be easy on this motercycle.Especially, picking up the motorcycle from the left and flicking it to the right side would be difficult because of the weight.But the front end gives so much confidence on this motorcycle, it’s just amazing. the power is also delivered very smoothly. The suspension setup is perfect for the light and mild bumps on the road or withing the corner without unsettling the bike. Overall, the motorcycle is so composed in handling the curves that it gives the rider a great confidence to push the motorcycle further. I would say the handling far exceeds by my expectations on this bike. It’s one of the best handling bike in the market. The abundance of cubic capacity really affects the power delivery on this bike there is power everywhere and its very strong but it comes in a very smooth way. I am happy with the Hayabusa’s noise, the stability and confidence it offered and the strong yet relaxed power delivery, it had for me. It’s a show stopper in looks not as stylish as an italian bike but it will do the job, very comfertable and woooooh it feels amazing when you drive it. Good job Suzuki!.Fuel economy of this bike is around 7 to 8 kmpl in city and on highway its 11 to 12 kmpl which is quite ok with the bike of this size but still it could be better. Bike is reliable don’t worry about the issues if you take a good care of the bike. It will leave you with a smile on face and and adrenaline pumping in your blood every time you drive it.
