Good Points
This is a perfect example of functional art.

Bad Points
They would sell it to anyone. Not recommended for novice.

General Comments
It's a frieghtening twist of the throttle looking down at the speedo and you're clocking in at 150 mph in about 10 seconds with the Suzuki GSX 1300R Hayabusa Sports Bike. Look up and there's a sweeping bend in the road and it's coming up fast, give it a little body english and glide around the bend as it was a staight line, amazing. The bike is rock solid at speed. Anything else that would propel you at the same acceleration will cost $100,000's more. A thrill to ride.

Longhorn's Response to lylec402's Review

The Hayabusa is sick. I owned a Blackbird for a year and put 20k miles on it. The Hayabusa is in another league. It cannot be described; only experienced.

Longhorn, you seem to love this bike to death for good reason. I'm looking to buy one but would like to get as much info as I can first. What's the longest distance you've ridden on your Busa without a break and how comfortable was the ride? How heavy does the bike feel? Any maintenance issues to date? Have you ever pulled stunts such as wheelies, stoppies, etc. on it?
<br>Thanks!
