 SUZUKI HAYABUSA SOLD OUT !😲

3rd gen HAYABUSA

The Suzuki Hayabusa was launched in India on April 26 and the first lot has sold out in just two days.

• 101 units of the 2021 Hayabusa came to India in the first lot
• Deliveries of the first batch should begin by mid-May
• The Busa is still India’s most popular ‘superbike’

India’s love for the Suzuki Hayabusa is no secret. The Busa’s iconic shape, massive size and movie-starring status have collectively cemented its legend in our market. By far, the best selling superbike in India, its success was reinforced by the fact that it retailed for a relatively affordable Rs 13.74 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

The company has already stopped taking bookings and says they will resume taking bookings once the second batch comes in, which is due sometime in the second half of 2021. Suzuki also said that it will offer a complimentary rear seat cowl for all customers of all 101 units as the deliveries begin. The new Hayabusa gets comprehensive updates for the first time in 13 years. The bike now features improved aerodynamics, as well as an updated electronics suite too.

The new Suzuki Hayabusa gets a 1,340 cc, four-stroke, fuel-injected, liquid-cooled, DOHC, inline four engine which makes 187 bhp at 9,700 rpm and 150 Nm of peak torque at 7,000 rpm. The new Suzuki Hayabusa sees a 10 bhp drop in power, and now makes 187 bhp at 9,700 rpm. The peak torque also sees 5 Nm drop, now making 150 Nm at 7,000 rpm. Top speed is still rated at 299 kmph and kerb weight sees a marginal drop of 2 kg to 264 kg.

Along with the updated engine, the motorcycle also gets a wide variety of electronic rider aids and a six-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU). The USP is the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S) under which you get three riding modes and three user-defined modes, with different settings for traction control, anti-lift control, engine brake control and so on.

Priced at Rs 16.4 lakh, the new bike is also priced considerably higher than the old one, though this was to be expected. As it turns out, the lower power and higher price have had no effect on the Busa’s popularity and all 101 units assigned for India have been sold within two days.
