Why Turbo Busa Engines Are Overpowered😳| Explained Ep.21

The Suzuki Hayabusa has undergone several updates and changes since its introduction in 1999. Originally designed to be the fastest production motorcycle in the world, the Hayabusa quickly gained a reputation for its incredible speed and power.

Me: * *watches why turbo hayabusa beats everything at 4 am* *

311.94 MPH is 502.02 KM/H - this thing was faster than the Chiron SS years before it even debuted. BIll Warner is a MADMAN.

That was awesome!! I had a Turbo'd 1100 and a Busa ! I was always scared that engine was going to blow up in between my legs everytime I heard that turbo spool but I still miss my bikes..

[wgdavidson]

My Hayabusa was one of the best bikes I've ever owned. I put 70, 000 km's on it and ran NOS. Never even had to change the clutch. I toured all over Canada with it. Indestructible bike.

We are so fortunate to be in a time where we have access to all this information in such an organized fashion. Thank you so much for making this video. I love learning something new everyday!

I was a service technician at a Houston area Suzuki dealership when the Busa was first introduced, and I was at the '01 factory update seminar when they announced the gentlemen's agreement. The Suzuki factory rep said that fear of government regulation was not the sole reason for limiting speed, the AMA and FIM told the manufacturers they were getting out of control and that 300 Km/Hr was the fastest that a motorcycle could go in a road-racing competition setting. They were also aware that it took most of us about 5 minutes to figure out how to override the speed limiter. One of the first changes they had to make to Busa engine was the cam chain tensioner. The first ones were ratcheting automatics and some failed, ended up bending the valves and occasionally breaking the crankshaft. The second ones were manual and some had the same results. The final recall repair kit came in 2001. In that kit was a new cam chain guide and new tensioner that was designed to use oil pressure provided by a hose that we had connect to the front oil galley via a banjo bolt, and two zip ties to prevent the cam chain from jumping when the kit was installed. One side note is that most of the broken crankshaft repairs I made out of warranty ended up stroker kits. I look back on those days and I'm amazed I'm over 50 years old now.

Radical also uses the stock 1340 Hayabusa in SR3's and SR1's. They also make a bespoke 1500 stroker Busa motor that pushes out 220 at the crank. The SR8 used a macro block V8 with stock cylinder barrels and heads from the Hayabusa spanning from 2.6-3.2 litre V8 that revs up to 10, 500 RPM!

There's a reason the Hayabusa is talked about like a mythic creature. Its a miracle of engineering.

Had a busa until last year, wildest bike I think I'll ever ride in my entire life. On the group I rode with, not a single bike can catch up in a straight line, and the turns aren't bad either despite it's massive size. Changed it for a BMW GS this year, Hayabusa's power scared me away from sport bikes now lol but it will always accompany me in my chest, quite literally; made a gold chain with it's kanji to mark my favorite bike I've ever owned.

[Trialnerror]

Had a 2002 Midnight Falcon Edition back in the day with an extended swingarm, was just an absolute rocket and so comfortable as a touring bike. Suzuki nailed it in every possible way. Such a great bike.

the hayabusa swapped smart cars are probably my favorite

[spencerderosier]

I watch a lot documentaries on YouTube to occupy my mind. You’re one of the best. On point. No lame attempts at jokes. Great charisma and you put things well like “this is the end of super bikes but let’s be happy it happened at all” well said man. You’re gonna be big.

[coachenine]

I remember being at the LA Motorcycle Show when the ZX11 was introduced. I was speaking with a Rep from Kawasaki. He told me the original cams designed for the bike were replaced and timing was retarded to get the bike UNDER 200mph. Would love to find a ZX11 and those original cam grind specs.😁😁😁

I've always thought that the people who ride Liter Bikes have accepted death, and there's almost nothing you could do to scare someone who thinks going 175+ on two wheels is not fast enough lol

I had the 1st hayabusa Green Bay ever sold back in 1999. It was ordered the day the literature came out and took months to come in. It was a great wheelie bike. Unbelievably stable at 200+

[captainbimble]

Had a Gen2 for 7 years and loved it. Only changed bikes because the riding position got to me in the end. I needed something more upright. But I enjoyed the Busa immensely. It's one of those bikes that everyone should own.

[Ghost-fcoh]

Always wanted a busa, now have one. Best bike I've ever rode by far. Most iconic bike ever produced, everyone else has always tried to match its reputation and failed. Will never part with mine, busa boy for life.

[solocamo]

Excellent videos as always. Straight to the point and extremely informative.

[mikepatton]

There's fast little cars in Japan that have Hayabusa engines. There's a couple of airplanes that are powered by Hayabusa engines. They're fast to be sure, but what gets me about them is the engineering.
