They're just sitting on it so that no one else can swipe it out from under them

Wouldn't that suck.....

Of course they trademarked the name "Katana" and came out with a new version so one never can tell.....

Thought I would copy and paste link to Suzuki's website confirming the Hayabusa will continue.

Click here.

" ... customizers worldwide are obsessively devoted to the Hayabusa and we are looking forward to continuing its legacy ..." - quote from Kerry Graeber Suzuki’s Vice President in Dec 2018

Most bought one of these to "get ready" for a Busa

But my gen 1 was only $800 more so I bought the Busa !

See, one never knows what is going through their minds...

Makes sense to me to spend the extra $800 and get a Busa. both my boys ride these style of Katana, the '06 doesn't have the word Katana on it, they called it a GSX750F instead....

I might wait another year but after that Im pulling the plug and going with a Ninja I think. I have heard every rumor under the sun about the bus and its getting old. The last thing I read recently was that they are retiring the bike completely due to Euro b.s. emission controls etc. Im a patient man but Im running out.

You have to do what you have to do....I see a new Busa coming in the next while as it is the flagship bike for Suzuki and they won't let it die. They copyrighted the name at least.

I think it will be supercharged and aiming directly at the H2...who knows, maybe they'll be smart about it and develop a much needed dedicated sport tour bike using the same platform.

I was part of that group.

Is this it? Could this be it? Will there ever be an "it"?

 

[Bumblebee]

This very well could be the Gen 3 bike, it all matches up anyway...
It seems to have cool rims on it and the pipes match the patent diagrams we have seen before.

 

[bussassin417]

... Could this be it ?

... very well could be ...

Better not be !!!

My plans of getting a Gen II cheap would be shot to $#@& !!!

I'd be selling my SUV and getting THAT Gen III !!!

Well that explains why it says GSX1400R on the tail fairing.
