the first gen busa didnt comply with the gentlemans agreement because it was the catalyst for the gentleman's agreement.
Together with it's rival the Kawasaki ZX-12R I ride a unrestricted ZX-12R -00, It was Also restricted from 2001 forward.
I had a Blackbird and I believe that to be the facts ... had an 04 and 06 busa as well
@@Miratesusalways wanted a ZX
@@GolfRemoEchoGolf2 The Blackbird's also look amazing I have a thing for the old hyperbikes.
@Miratesus ditto !! Had several KZs too and a couple 750SS
Gen 1 & 2 rider 20 years. Waited for the delayed Gen 3. I walked into a Harley dealer, Opps, now riding an FLHTK (Street Glide Ultra Limited). Built the motor 166hp 156tq. It's fun and to have a bike with full touring storage is amazing. But nothing rivals the BUSA! Actually, looking for a low milage Gen 2. Good video.
Good job on the Hayabusa review! I think Suzuki hit a home run with the styling of this 3rd gen version.
So we all know bikes don't launch fast but rolling is another story. Could we start a rolling time. Only speed limit abiding 😂. 20 to 65 or even a 4t5 to triple in 🇲🇽. I really like the idea of a bunch of modes. It's very personalized without customization. Keeps the value high on the bike while still being very diffrent from each other.
great idea
Rolling starts are a bit crazy on these big bikes. I had a stock 07 zx14 and 55 to 170+ back to 55 in less than 60 seconds.
I agree. A sportster vs a 600 vs a liter bike... all the 0-60 times are fairly close and limited by traction and rider fear of looping the bike. 30 to 90 or 20 to 80 would give a better idea of how nasty a bike is.
This is where bigger powerful bikes would or could benefit from a belt drive system that has an adjustable swing arm length on the fly.. Low down, longer swing arm, keeping the front down and shortens higher up or on cornering.
With modern materials, clever electronics it is definitely doable..
I might be biased, I've a gen 2 Vmax and on take off with the longer length bike it hits 2.5 sec to 60 fairly easily.. Fasted recorded stock is 2.1, so an adjustable swing arm length on a sports bike would be advantageous..
@@SrkcyclesScripture also says pretty much anything you do for yourself is a sin brah. Not doing what is correct is a sin
The "Bird" you mentioned is the Peregrine Falcon, Hayabusa means Peregrine Falcon in Japanese, And It Is the fastest animal on Earth, In a dive it can hit 240 MPH, It kills It's prey with sheer kinetic force, I started riding in 68.
Thanks for CLEARING THAT up..
Man, Hayabusa and ZX14R engine are so big that they sound calm but very fast!
The Busa is a unique masterpiece of motorcycle design. Deceptively fast, comfortable and the result of years of evolution. Reliability has never been an issue, running costs are directly equal to the rapidity at which you twist the throttle. How rapidly you wish to stretch the chain or evaporate the rear tyre depends on your enthusiasm. But then again, if you wish, Vespa manufacturers two wheeled vehicles as well. It’s not a difficult choice in all reality.
the guage cluster is the size of a cars dash!!! crazy machine
I remember the UK based Fast Bikes guys on this.... epic. Imagine a bunch of racers on the R1, Blackbird and 'Busa howling around Southern France. I've loved it ever since. EDIT: This was the '90s, so its been a while.
I bought a new 2008 back then. Put a turbo on it..and promptly got a huge ticket. Traded it in for two yamaha 450s and gear. Rode dirt bikes with my kids. I enjoyed that..but i still miss my busa
go get another one
I’ve been riding for over 2 years and the more I look and sit on these at shops, the more I want to test drive one! Just gotta convince the wife of why I need one…lol!
The Honda Blackbird was a great looking bike.
They were also very over engineerd. There was one that used to be in the Harrisburg Pa area that made 400hp with a custom turbo kit.
I had a Hayabusa in the mid 2000s, I sold it because my back was too messed up from 22 years in the artillery. That bike was amazing to ride.
The 2000 ZX12R was a BEAST and was definitely faster than the Busa in those years
With quickshifter keep throttle wide open and obviously no clutch. My Super Duke has launch control also. Just keep throttle widen open and shift. Quickshifter does everything
love that quick shift
words of wisdom 🔥 love srkcycles
Nothing else, legally motorized on two wheels, feels like a Busa❗💥🤷♂️❤️
Just heard your pray didn't know you serve The Lord that's awesome! May the The Lord Bless and keep you brother.
Now now, the zx14r is physically larger than the 'busa.
The ZX14 is discontinued because it doesn’t meet Euro 5 emissions. FGretaTurdburg and FJB. 🖕🇨🇳
My buddy at work has a first gen. Last year he got a new one. 3 days later I seen him back on his Gen 1. He got Rida the new one because he said his Gen 1 was way faster
I had a stock 06 that was lowered a little bit and did 200. I tried it once then tunnel vision set in and I backed off. I really didn't want to hit a wild donkey. It was smooth and when tucked it sucked you into the tank.
Would love to see more videos on indians been highly considering one and i appreciate your videos
I'd like to see this line up against the latest fjr1300, which nowadays sports a 6spd and serious potential for a turbo as well
My 2015 FJR lacks the 6th gear but I can get it up to about 140 if I want. The 6-speeds are probably good to 150 but neither is going to keep up with a Busa. I'd say the FJR is easily the better overall bike because it knows what it is, a Sport Tourer. The Busa is a huge Sport bike that sometimes likes to pretend to be a Sport Tourer.
Why would you want to see that? The fjr weighs like 60 pounds more, makes almost 60 less hp and 10 ft lbs less tq then the hayabusa and is less aerodynamic.
Come on man. I love the FJR but comparing that bike to the Busa is like comparing Daniel Vogelbach to Usain Bolt.
@@GunnyPhillips It's called versatility, not that it doesn't know what it is.
@@David.. "a serious potential for a turbo" You can tell this dude has zero idea what he is talking about lol.
This dude scared of dumping clutch on launch control 😂
if you're ever in the Cleveland, OH area, you can ride my 350hp turbo gen3 hayabusa! built by the one and only Richard Peppler of RCC Turbos
“It can tell to know what it can do”
Thank you once again, for the brilliant insight. You should try reading more books.
It’s like a gymnasium for your brain.
I think after the H2 Suzuki should have done something groundbreaking for the new gen Hyabusa.
The minute you said I don’t read manual I know I can trust your opinion 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I love your content but one thing that gets me drives me nuts. When shifting up there is absolutely no need to use the clutch. Let off gas and shift up. Only need to use clutch to shift down, stop and take off. I noticed a long time ago you use it to shift up. Why?
i ran 173 on my friends 1999 busa in 2000 on a 4 lane blacktop only wearing boots, jeans t-shirt and safety glasses. that was stupid and fun. still is the fastest i have ever gone.
I never could get past the looks of a Hayabusa. They're too bulbous looking for my taste. Definitely looks more sport-touring than supersport but each his own. I'll take a ZX10 any day.
Me too man, they're some of the ugliest bikes out there if you ask me.
there both pretty bulbous i think
Sean you're the bike dude GOD BLESS YOU
Blackbird 1100XX (HondaBusa lmao)
Hayabusa
ZX-14R (I love this more than the H2…I’m so sorry smhlmao)
*#ThreeKings* 💯💯💯🗣️💥
Suzuki Hayabusa is like a caffeine injection for your adrenaline, revving up your heart rate with every twist of the throttle! ☕💓🏍💨
I've never been a fan of the Hayabusa. Just watched this cause your vids are always great.
Sean, learn how to launch that thing. I've got a quicker launch on my Vaquero.
Let's see that wheelie control feature! The best one of the bunch lol
Hey Sean did you make it down to TN yet? Not sure if you remember speaking with me a few years back, but my dad bought a 2011 CBR 1000RR from you. He loves it and still rides and wants me to ride with him. If you’re in TN and selling bikes still, let’s talk. I’m near Ft Campbell
You should make a video building a turbo hayabusa
Thank you for showing me how to use launch control. I have 2200 miles on this thing with no fricken clue how to use it!
So what your saying is that a new rider can now get a hayabusa as their very first bike - and just turn all the nannies full on and all the limiters all the way up so its "safe"
I do wish it had that supercharged whistle that the H2 has
I LOVE that you read scripture on every video brother! All glory to Jesus, keep up the good work
I'd rather say the Hayabusa is the most abused modification platform in the world. All those extended swingarms and shit are puke-worthy. But as it stands off the dealership floor, it's certainly an iconic bike in and of itself.
you know that there are hundreds of public dragstrips all over the U.S. where you can pay like $20 and race all night? where do you think those guys with teh extended swingarms are on the weekends? they're at the track betting $10,000 on a drag race.
@@RoeShamBoe A fraction, a very small fraction, of the people with extended swingarms actually use them for that, and for actual drag racers, sure. The preposterously blinged up Hayabusas with gold extended swingarms and rhinestones are just posers who think ruining a fast bike made to handle turns at speed is a good thing.
you guys not done putting the motor in the jetbike at the very end? very excited to see it
Those bikes are for people with a death wish. What was the Grateful Dead song..."Going to hell in a bucket, but at least I'm enjoying the ride"? 🙂
3 days ago? Looks like the place in Pa., you left months ago?
Another awesome video. Love that just like myself enjoy any kind of motorcycle not just a specific one. We just love motorcycles 😋
you said the original busa did not abide "follow" by the gentleman's agreement but it did not exist till 2000 so when the 1st busa was out for 1999 it was not breaking the agreement as you stated
2001 was the first limited year in the USA?
I worked with a dude that had busa from
2001,2,3. Cant remember exactly. But it would do over 200mph. He'd pass, Georgia HP, and Alabama Troopers and if they were on the side of the road, they wouldn't even pull out. Heck they might not have even saw him😅😂
I dont think you ever seen the ZX14R THE BUSA DESTROYER.
I stopped riding years ago when my best friend was killed on a GXSR running into a Deer..He was dead on the scene and in pieces like the Deer...I was on a CBR, sold it a week later...
Hayabusa is actually the Japanese name for Peregrine falcon which is the fastest bird in the world , but it is not native to Japan.
Peregrine Falcons are not exclusive to Japan. They're on all continents.
Shref is back with a grinn
"How do you keep it so clean"?
Bro only has 67km on it 😂
Love this bike , just too expensive in my side of the world South Africa , maybe i should look for gen 1 ?
gen 1 are still great bikes
Favorite bike I've ever owned
Where's that wheelie control demo dude!?
You Wont Believe what my WALLET says !
"PAY OFF YOUR CAR FIRST!!!"
the whole engine internals have been upgraded
Hyabusa isn't a Japanese Bird as such, it's Japanese for a Peregrine Falcon.
Awesome bike I need to ride one more time before I leave this world...
Recorded horizontally:)
High rise full exhaust will change the lines and look of that bubble bike for the better.
I own a Gen3 Hayabusa, and this is my 6th Hayabusa. I bought it to replace my 2020 ZZR1400 (ZX14 in the USA) The big Kawasaki was way better than the first 2 generations 'Busa with a smoother clutch, seemingly more powerful engine, more comfortable seat, and a better fit & finish than the gen 1&2 'Busa's. Indeed if it had cruise control I doubt I would have sold it. So along come Suzuki with their Gen3 and it is by far the best of all three generations, with the power in the area that I want it the most, a smoother clutch, and (for me) the most important of all, the introduction of cruise control along with a fully adjustable electronics package.
Downsides: Sadly the paintowrk is Suzuki's usual poor offering, which really doesn't take much to mark it. Furthermore when I bought my 2023 year model they had not made a tank protector to match the new colours. How difficult can that be? Also the pegs are set fairly high which does take a little getting used to, though as it now has cruise control you can easily stretch out arms and legs to ease the pain. The stock fairing is also a pain as it directs the airflow right at the visor, thus preventing you cracking it open above 30mph as the draught is aimed straight into your eyes, but this can be remedied by the addition of a double-bubble or aftermarket screen.
Things I like: Well it's still clearly a 'Busa, with its iconic shape. As I said earlier the power band is in a far more usable place so while it loses a touch at top end I cannot imagiine many people reach those speeds where that is needed. The old-school analogue clocks are well suited to the bike, and the sight of the speedo moving seemlessly up when you give her a handful is addictive. Add in the long wheelbase that gives incredible stability on the windiest of days and this is now one seriously good bike for long days in the saddle.
Sure, there are faster machines out there, but they don't have the iconic status of the big Suzuki. Park her up to refuel and as often as not someone will either wander across to comment/talk or you'll get a thumbs up.
Out on the open road it is majestic. My favourite is when I'm doing around 70mph and want to overtake. You can easily just open the throttle for immediate speed, or you can drop her down to third for a dose of accelleration that will defy your senses: "warp factor 3 Scottie" comes to mind. Around town she's a pussycat, with really good manners, very balanced, and I never feel as though I'm going to struggle when I have to put my feet down.
So, in a nutshell, a bike that is more than just speed, a bike that is capable of long days on the go, a bike that draws attention, even from none-bike enthusiasts, and a bike so iconic almost everyone has heard of them. If only Suzuki finished the paintowrk off better I would score it a 10. As it is I give it a solid 9.
Hope this review helps anyone thinking of buying one.
Regards, Bib.
Agree - with nearly everything. 3rd gen Busa is massive improvement in all areas. Only if it had a bit more power on top end. Really feel the difference how the ZZR rips at hyperspeeds. Mind - that in low end it is gruntier- will outaccelerate pretty much anything ( have seen dragrace Gen 3 vs ZZR, vs supercar) I dont see problem with paintwork - shiny and bright. Good quality
The new gen has all the bells and whistles but still missing a turbo
No issue I have gen 1, 2 and 3 and fitted turbos to them all?
It's okay, you can fix that. 😂
They should just start selling a turbo version. They would probably sell even more of them. Not to mention they would really be sticking it to Kawasaki with their H2. I prefer a turbo over supercharger any day.
@@Messier87_M87I think the main issue would be conforming to regulations. Even if it got a factory turbo, it may be severely underwhelming compared to aftermarket options.
I forget the name of the company (there's probably several), but a performance group offer a "super-busa"... a new gen hayabusa with a supercharger
I took a British spec Hyabusa on a German autobahn a few years ago and got 198mph out of it. I'm sure it would have done more than 210 but traffic held it back. Gorgeous and amazing machine.
I hate it when that happens.
Do you walk everywhere with a wheelbarrow? I’ve owned an SV650s and the 129 top speed was enough for me 😂
@@KineticTaco I ride an SV as well and you get used to the speed quick. There’s a few sections of boring highway here where you can see for miles so no chance of getting caught by cops unless you’re not paying attention. I’ve quite a few times hit the fast forward button on both the SV and GSXR-750 and it’s pretty crazy how quickly you get used to going 120 gps speed on an SV or 140+ on a super sport bike.
@@KineticTacoride more you’ll get bored quick lol
True, mine did 335 kph / 208 mph back in the year 2000. But that was the speedometer reading. GPS showed 304 kph / 189 mph. The Guinness book of World Records recorded 194 mph back then.
The 1999 Hayabusa had an unrestricted ECU and could go 190 MPH/306 KPH stock (change the sprockets to higher ratios and it'll go faster). The "gentleman's agreement" came out afterwards to limit to 300 KHP/186 MPH. The ECU on the current bike is overwhelmingly hobbled to where you can "ask" for 100% throttle but the mapped tune still restricts the power, let alone the exhaust which is a major restriction because of Euro V standards. Luckily most Gen 2 (and some Gen 1) aftermarket parts are direct bolt-on and now the ECU can be re-flashed to get rid of those silly restrictions. Slap an RCC turbo kit on that bad boy and watch the top speed and acceleration climb!
The first year Busa was clocked at 312kmh, Suzuki & Kawasaki never entered the said Gentleman's agreement it was only Honda.
Yet all their bikes since then have stopped at 186mph/300kmh...hmm funny
@@MrKdr500
or spend $5000 on having carpeneter install their NA 235-240hp kit like i did on my 08. 238whp on pump 93
@@Shadow0fd3ath24 Big bore N/A setups are nice, but can only get you so far on a small motor platform. I spent roughly the same amount for the turbo kit (granted, I also rebuilt the entire motor to handle bigger boosts eventually, which doubled my costs) and made ~280 HP SAE corrected on 91 pump (higher elevation) with a 7 PSI spring. The bonus is now with a boost controller I can push those boost numbers higher for more HP gain and either run water/air intercooler or methanol injection to keep charge temps down when racing, but still able to street ride on the lower boosts.
Zx14 is a heaps better bike in my opinion
The hayabusa is the very bike that brought about the 'gentleman's agreement' with rival manufacturers.
Do explain......
@@jimkoch1040Honda, Suzuki, and Kawasaki had a pp measuring contest to see who could make the fastest top speed land rocket. Starting with Honda making the blackbird then Suzuki making the hayabusa and Kawasaki finishing it with the ZX-14R. Eventually the company’s had to put in place a gentlemen’s agreement to limit the bikes to 187mph or 300kph because the Japanese government was going to start cracking down on them for making these dangerous machines. (The Busa and 14R will go way faster but need the speed limiter removed)
@@pdaddy8089 good to know. Thanks for the info!
The gentleman's agreement is no longer in place. Other manufacturers have ignored it.
@@sleepingwarrior4618 the Japanese gentlemen’s agreement still still on. The Europeans were never apart of it
I still have my 1st gen 2002 busa. I helped it a bit with s placed resistor tre, a tweaked 4-2-1 exhaust, tweaked tour footpegs, higher contoured windscreen, and custom levers.. Just short of 100k On record with several IBA rides. I like simplicity; I think I'll keep it!
I want the first gen as well just for the Simplicity and I think it looks the best. I think these are incredibly cool. they have just too much technology for me. I don't need to have launch control I don't need to have wheelie control I don't want all that that's too much for me to have to learn and focus on while I'm just trying to ride.
I missed out on buying one maybe a decade?? ago from a friend of a friend who had gotten in to some "trouble" and was facing a huge attorney fee. It was so beautiful!! It was White w/MedBlue graphics. I can't remember what year model it was. Any idea what gen or year they offered that color combo??

In 1999 Cycle World used a Radar gun to clock the Hayabusa at 194 mph. The following year Kawasaki brought out a ZX12R with more horsepower to beat the Suzuki. The fastest the Kawi would go was 186 mph. The next year a gentlemen’s agreement was reached to limit motorcycles to 300 kph (186 mph) by the Japanese manufactures to avoid legislation from the European Union. The Japanese at the time were the only manufactures able to mass produce bikes this fast. A side note on this is a few months after Kawasaki brought out their Hayabusa beater Cycle Canada was able to acquire time in a wind tunnel with both bikes. The Kawasaki simply wasn’t slippery enough to beat the Suzuki top end even with the extra power. Now I’m 66 years old and this is all from memory.
Factory told 320 km/hrs but 312 seams reality.
I'm 60 years old. Just got myself a Gen3.
I could have sworn that to be able to sell those bikes in the USA they had to be limited to top speed 189mph. And that was the reason for the gentlemans agreement 🤝.
I may be wrong, but I know the 189 mph limit on sport bikes is still enforced here in the USA. Granted you can remove the limits yourself and still be legal.
Suzuki and Kawasaki never formally agreed to the gentleman's agreement....why do people keep saying all 4 Japanese manufacturers agreed on it when only Honda agreed......
then they dropped the 2cd gen 14R... god of the street.
I got this bike 2 months ago having an mt10, zx6r and h2 already. All i can say is this bike is soooooooo smooth its insane, by far the best handling bike i have. Its even easier to drive than the zx6r while its almost double the weight😂 and im a small dude only 1,70cm
I’ve had to pleasure of riding Hayabusas and the GSX R 1000 bikes on the actual Suzuki test track in Hamamatsu Japan by invitation sponsored by Suzuki world Japan. The video you see of the 1st gen busa is actually on that track.
Sure you did mate, and I got to fly to space with Apollo 11
Sean, this is one of your best videos. Well done, man! Was that a sweet Triumph Rocket or a Valkyrie riding with you? Whatever it was, man, it looked SWEET!
It was a Valkyrie, and yeah those are classics. . The Rocket 3 Touring I have does kinda resemble the Valkyrie 1500 if you squint, though.
@@KimmoJaskari I love my 2003 valkyrie. Ride it almost every day.
Thank you Sean for this informative video. You've answered every question I had about this magnificent piece of engineering.
Top Speed of the 1999 First Gen Busa was confirmed in an Article in Cycle World in either late '99 or Early '00 at 199.6mph.
Love your channel. I'm not a sports bike rider but still like watching your breakdown.
My 3rd confirmation on the Kingdom of God. Thank you Jesus! I just came back to watch your channel. Who knew that i would get a word on the Kingdom of God.
That '99 Busa was a monster. When riding it vs. a 2nd gen Busa, I felt a distinct difference. The 2nd gen actually felt like a 1000. The '99 felt a lot more powerful and took more effort to control.
I have a '22 and want a Gen 1 just for that raw feeling that was lost in the next two generations, even if it had less horsepower.
Lol. This guy
was it the lack of traction control?
@@Boeing__747 It was just felt more poewrful and a lot more twitchy than the second gen. It was more raw.
I'm not a sport bike guy but I'd love to ride the Hayabusa.
they are super comfy and very easy to ride. It surprises you with how friendly and chill it is, you can be brand new to riding and have no issue carting around town on a busa. Then ofc its got plenty of power if u wanna go fast on the highway.
Allah willing!
Because of Sean's review, I bought myself a new Honda Fury for my first bike. I think this is gunna be my next bike. Hyabusa hmmm never thought I'd be a bike dude
I like the new shots and overall improvement on cinematography on the video, props guys keep it up
I'm 6'2" and lowered the pegs on my 2022 model 1" and it is a very comfortable bike.. big enough for a larger rider and not feel cramped. Not as quick as my Aprillia Tuono Factory but much more stable and better for any distance riding..... good gas mileage, terrible in cross winds with all that plastic but nice in a head or tail wind. Sure there are faster bikes out there but it is a very good bike for super sporty touring... bring back a Busa with upright bars and luggage......... great smooth engine that keeps pulling .
And you will get at least 100,000 km trouble free out of it.
agreed, im 6'2 and love the size
I rode this and I found it tame (a bit too tame). It's all new and definitely improved but I wish they'd given us more of a power bump.
Tamed because of emissions but you can always unleash it's true potential by flashing the ECU 👍

Im working on it. currently trying to find a new spot and build a new team here in TN. but I got big big plans
From what I remember, the gentlemens agreement came out due to the development of the ZX12. All eyes were on the ZX-12 as that was supposed to be the first production bike to break 200mph. The first gen busa seemed to sneak out right before the agreement.
Yep and the zx12 still handed busas rear to busa just walking it and some say it still happens till this day😂 zx14r still eats busa for breakfast, busa is a great bike and is great looking got to give credit where it's due but very annoying when they try to look down on everyone else just like many harley boys do dont even wave back..when they are just really on a step tool, there will always something be bigger and better.
@@i30sleeperzx 14 also looks heaps better
@@hankbellamyThe zx14r is a great bike, but it definitely needs an update. Cruise control and a bi-directional quickshift would be awesome
bought a new Gen 3 Hayabusa in October 2022, & I love mine, ... what a bike, even though it's slower than MV Agusta F3 in every gear, till the F3 reaches its top speed of 240 Kmph, then Busa takes over till it reaches its locked top speed of 299 or 300 kmph otherwise its actual top speed is 317 Kmph approx.
I am only 5'6" Tall (short for a Busa). I feel, it's not a Sport-Tourer, or as comfortable as a sport tourer should be, eg. Ninja 1000SX which i have tried/tested is very comfy. Also, FJR1300 might be comfy, i haven't touched it yet.
I have 4 other Bikes (all purchaed new) :
Ducati X-Diavel (1260cc V2), Triumph Trident 660 Triple, KTM 390 Duke, Yamaha R15
... and pre-booked my 6th bike in 3 years, the Triumph Scrambler 400-X ... which will be delivered in 3 months.
got installed a Full System Titanium AKRAPOVIC on Busa & Trident, and Termignoni Slip-on on XDiavel
If you properly tune to add a air filter and then exhaust, you should be able to get 200 hp out of it may be a little more and by the way it has a slipper clutch. If you have your settings, correct I would bump it up to 10 grand and just dump. The clutch don’t slip it. The willie control l and traction control will help you out.👍
You never rode a big performance bike like a busa have you?
These are torque kings… not hp kings …. Which is why regular 1000cc bikes are faster now days
Um, no. Should really do some research before guessing.
Hayabusa literally translates to bird that preys on blackbirds but the bird they call that is a peregrine falcon not a special Japanese bird fwiw, they’re on all continents.
Edit: they also dive well over 200mph
I missed SRK cycles videos
looks to me like you never actually dumped the clutch and let launch control handle it.
that 1-3 gen comparison does not show "sport touring" with the way they're hunched over hugging the tank. ouch.
Depends on your overall body dimensions, I tried a 2019 super duke GT, a weapon in its own right and I wasn't as hunched as I expected for it being a road legal sport bike. You could lean into it if you chose but it wasn't required for someone my height.
Love the words of wisdom, brother.
I still have my 2000 model, blue and silver and unrestricted. It wasn't only the 1999 model that was unrestricted. The 2000 model was too.
I had both the super blackbird and the Hayabusa at the same time. The blackbird felt like a fireblade. It was a far superior bike to ride. I turbocharged the busa. That made it worse and less rideable. I’d have a busa again but I’d probably street fighter it
Wasn't there a factory produced Busa street fighter? Back in the day

We need to show the younger bikers that gear is cool! And turn around that idiotic " I ride in shorts because im not gonna crash today" style. They are dumb.

Now anyone can handle these things. I miss the 70's when life began at 170 on a 2 stroke with bias ply tires and drum brakes!!!
Yes - when you had to pay for your mistakes!
The kawasaki H2 750 two stroke and Suzukis GT750 waterbuffalo (water cooled) two strokes were monsters. I'd honestly like to ride a GT750 tuned with some good fuel, and modern tires. It sounds almost a little scary. :)
Yeah, an old H1 with cracked up tires and floods on the low end, hit 6 grand and it runs out from under you. Fun stuff.
ugly bike cross between rf 900 and gsx 750 horrible
