Weight should be curb weight, not dry.

20k for one of the most iconic bikes ever is an absolute steal.

I had a Gen2 Busa for 7 years. What a great bike it was and I miss it. The riding position got to me in the end and I had to go back to an upright riding position. Everyone should own Busa once in their biking lives!

As a longtime GSXr rider, I appreciate the ‘busa for what it is, and that it is still around after all this time.

I ride my sport bikes the same way, whether 2 or 4 cyl's. Smooth shifting, listening to the engine sounds, respecting the roads (curves) and other drivers etc.. just literally enjoying the bike. I think both the Hayabusa & ZX14 are legendary, iconic sports bikes. I'm a Kawasaki / Honda guy but started out and owned 3 Suzukis' since 1987 🦾

The fullest of sends, can't wait to get one.

[knighthollow]

Smooth as butter. Both the bike and your riding skills.

Hayabusa is a serious bike and not easy to control if you are mediocre rider, especially at high speeds. Legend, who can not love it.

[xabirodriguezzz]

i love that they keep using analog dials

Love the orange & black color scheme and the less racical tail body work, this is sure to sell a ton of them.
I dont have a Hayabusa, but a ZX14R (lightly modified, pipe, ECU flash, air cleaner), it's very strong, and for sure more power than most of us will ever need to use, or can use on southern california roads, especially with the traffic out there today.
This Hayabusa like my Kawi has so much torque, it laughs at any road around, no ned to tach it up all the time, and yes these bikes easily hit 100+ in second (my 14 hits 110, and wheelies when I bang third), My son in law, a former F18 pilot out of Miramar, also has a ZX14R, but he is planning on finding one of these 25th anniversary ones slightly used, hoping to pay a little less, so I constantly send him pictures and videos of this new Busa, whict really fires him up to go get one...lol
Great bike, I would love to have one too, but I'm too old (71) to want to go buy a new bike now, although, this video does tempt me.
The one thing I tell people who question the weight of these big bikes, is that I do a fair bit of freeway traveling, and smaller, lighter bikes get blown around way more than these, these are solid on the road, no getting craizly blown around when big trucks go by, or high winds are blowing. I've been in treacherous winds commuting from San Diego, to Palm Springs, and up to Lancaster, Mojave, Tehachappi where strong winds are common, and wouldnt want to do it on a lighter bike ever again, plus, theres nothing better than quickly snuffing out the loong stretches of asphalt on those back roads with one of these fast bikes, yea baaby!.

I Could see American Roads & Highways Throuth This Video BTW Suzuki Hayabusa"s First Design Was Cool 🙌

[timelymedal]

Getting up to 100 MPH in 2nd gear is absolutely insane.

[fitzgerald]

[ynbaylife]

Getting that MOTO MADNESS vibe !!! just waiting for something " Crazy" to show up

[patrickmichael]

Happy 25th (silver) anniversary to my FAV Suzuki motorcycle!

[SoCalBusaRider]

[javy.airlines]

[gameroo_]

[waltherdc]

[TheCoolProfessor]

Motorcycles can be beautiful to watch but I feel terrified just sitting on them!
