Title: Return of TheKing
Post by: theking on February 12, 2021, 10:11:11 AM
I had a first year, first gen copper silver version so I know how nice it is. Can't wait to see what the 2022 version brings. It always had good sales numbers as it has a cult following like the Supra, Tacoma, etc. but emission restrictions was it's biggest barrier:

Return of the King: Can the 2022 Suzuki Hayabusa Rule the Competition Once Again?

Mention the Suzuki Hayabusa and even non-motorcycle people know it’s one very quick machine. After all, its name is the Japanese word for “peregrine falcon,” a bird that can reach speeds of more than 200 mph in descent. The model first appeared in 1999, instantly taking the title of “World’s Fastest Production Motorcycle” away from arch rivals Honda and Kawasaki. In the 22 years since that spectacular debut, the Hayabusa has gone on to become a bike iconic of speed and excess. Surprisingly, it has been updated only once in all that time, the 2008 iteration. That is, until now.

The legend will be reborn in 2022, ...

Have you tried it?

My advice for those that have never tried is do the MSF course and then decide if it's for you or not. That's the cheapest way of finding out vs. plunking down 10s of thousands of dollars for one then turns out it's not for you.. O0 O0

Never have. And I’m okay with it. When I was younger, I have an itch here and there but don’t have the courage to get on one.

I got my first influence back in Laos because not too many people can afford automobiles so they buy motorcycles instead. I was too young but I've seen my older siblings rode them and it has always stuck with me so when I was able to afford one back in the early 90s, I bought one and self-taught myself...
