    after owning a 02 Honda Blackbird for nearly five years, i traded it in on a 04 Hyabusa, although there was and is nothing particularly wrong with it i was never as happy with it as i was the Blackbird, by comparison the Blackbird was fast, smooth and comfy, the Busa is harsh, the Busa is better in the twisters, faster is a straight line but the balance of the bike just not as good as the Blackbird. If you just want FAST buy the Busa if you want fast and enjoyable ride buy the Blackbird it will cruise all day long in comfort and is as good on a scenic run as it is good for an hour's blast, the Busa is good only for the blast.

    this bike is truly a beast. Suzuki GSX 1300R Hayabusa is so fast once you twist the throttle, you can stop you just want to keep going faster and faster.

    It really does go through tires pretty fast. Its way to quiet in stock form.

    good for 2 up riding all day long and at really high speeds. so much power it feel like the hand of god is pushing you down the road.

    I owned a Suzuki GSX 1300R Hayabusa 2004 model for 4 years, sold it and bought an ST1300 new. I regret it. Not hat the ST1300 is a bad bike, its just that there is nothing like a Hayabusa. I've owned many litre plus bikes including a fireblade and R1 and nothing compares.

    Had an early 99 model Suzuki GSX 1300R Hayabusa from new. 51,000 miles so far and it's needed nothing except tyres, two sets of wheel bearings, three sets of fork seals and two chain / sprocket sets (scottoiler fitted when new!) and a couple of batteries. What can I say, 50mpg + on long rides, overtakes ANYTHING and almost comfortable. (High pegs but I've got long legs). Make sure you use a good oil twice a year, K&N oil filters cause they are the easiest to put on and take off and change the pl ...

    Firstly i would like to thank everyone who put review onto the site as it helped me allot when deciding what bike to go for.

    So after thinking about going for a VFR800 i took one for a test ride and it was too easy a nice bike that could be taken to it's limits and do exactly what you expected i have nothing against them and think they are great bikes however for me it did not have the x factor so i pursued a dream of mine to get a busa.

    I decided to go for a 99 busa not because they are the ...

    All over it is a good bike if not looking towards its cost and average . but people who are facinated by speed and want to feel the heat with nos , for them hayabhusa is the best bike

    highly powerfull bike. Hayabusa is best in its class as rightly said no bike can ever match it.

    The Suzuki Hayabusa is the best bike I ever owned and I've ridden cruisers and just about every 1000 there is and nothing compares to it.

    A must have item. All you want to do is look for an excuse to ride it somewhere! Good gas mileage for a rocket, handles good, super smooth motor.

    The Suzuki Hayabusa is the best bike I have ever owned and I've had three of them over the years. It`s like riding on rails. So easy to manouver for such a big bike.

    I have owned a stock Suzuki Hayabusa since 2004. Mine is a the dark black and blue model 2002. I have owned zx9r's rf 900's, R1's, Blackbirds... and nothing comes even close to the Busa. I use it every day for commuting to work and back, on a weekend meeting the lads at the local bike meets and taking me and the other half, fully loaded up over Europe once a year if we get chance. This bike is superb. Never let me down, starts first time, every time, very smooth engine and gears even with 2 up. ...

    Have u ever sat on a plane at the top of the runway, then the pilot guns it? That's similar to the Hayabusa feeling! Nothing you've ever ridden will come close to the busa feeling. NOTHING.

    Nothing but nothing else on the road will feel as powerful, but beware its very deceptive power. You think you're doing about 70, check the speedo, you're more than likely doing 120+ IT WILL NOT EAT TYRES. If you chain any bike or car then the tyres wont last long, you will not need to thrash a bus, just roll the power on and watch everything disappear. that way you wont melt the tyres. Remember, the power is deceptive. Theres an intense feeling of satisfaction that i've never got from any ot ...

    The bike is very nice like I said, not too many bad points on it, it's just the wheels and the rims, but so far, I'll buy the bike.

    One of the few hypersports I don't find agonising to spend time on. Absolutely the most awe inspiring engine. Wonderful design, Good balance between quick turn in and stability. Probably the fastest thing on wheels on the planet right now. I have owned about 30 bikes over the years. This one outshines any of them by miles. The finish is good, the design is outstanding. Cannot fault it.

    I've had this bike for about a month, and all of the following reviews ring true. I do a lot of highway and in-between riding, and the thing I love the most is when I pass an 18 wheeler, it doesn't get flipped all over the road by the turbulence. It sounds silly, but I've always had smaller sporty bikes, and the stability of this thing at speed is like a rock. They did their homework with the aerodynamics. I got the last black 2007 model in my area, and I passed on the 2008's because I think ...

    As a riding experience, the Suzuki Hayabusa is a visceral organ-rearranging explosion of speed, in any gear at any time. It leans and handles fairly well for its size, is comfortable for all day riding and extremely reliable. I ride mine all the time, in all weather to commute and for fun. Fuel consumption is good for such a large capacity engine, and the injection and gear change are flawless pleasure. The looks are, it seems, a matter of opinion, but clean your 'Busa up and she shines to draw ...

    I'm only 21 and I have been racing bikes since I was 14. I have been racing small 360lbs bikes and with only about 100 hp. When I stepped on this bike I was amazed on how low it sat. When I was already used to small low horsepower bikes, I was used to pulling 3/4 throttle. Then I did it on this bike and it was crazy how this bike acted. After I learned to only pull 1/4 throttle and then increase to 3/4 and hold it. In conclusion this motor is highly recommended.
