Much as I’m a disappointed with Suzuki’s line up for the last few years, the Busa was a game changer bike.
Amazing that if you want big numbers, horsepower, top speeds etc, then the natural choice is a Hayabusa. Amazing because it’s a 20 year old bike and nothing has beat it in 20 years!! For a bike of its age to still dominate really is special.
It has the advantage that it’s design doesn’t need to meet Euro4 or 5 specs that makes newer bikes struggle, and it lack modern bikes features, but even walking past it to buy a Kawasaki, I‘ll argue with anyone who says the Busa isnt something really special. A landmark in motorcycle history.
