Suzuki Hayabusa

Suzuki Hayabusa GSX1300R

The best power-to-weight ratio, The sharpest looking motorcycles ever made, Powered by the smooth-accelerating and fuel-injected 1,340cc, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC engine that started a revolution in its earliest form, It was the fastest production bike ever made before Kawasaki gave an answer to it in the form of the ZX-12R back in 2000 and it would still be that today if it wasn’t for the 186mph limitation that followed. Also, this is probably the most highly worked on and modified motorcycle ever as all the outrageous modification that passed through tuners minds would have first found their place on the Busa and then on smaller bikes.
