Suzuki Aims To Release A Second Round Of 2022 Hayabusas This Summer!

The brand-new 2021 Suzuki Hayabusa launched on April 26th and sold out in just 3 days. Its sales are breaking records, and good news is that Suzuki Motorcycle India will issue a second batch of 2021 Hayabusa bikes later this year.

Let’s recap why this new iteration of the legendary “Busa” is so popular these days. First of all, it got a complete overhaul, with a leaner and lighter build, as well as engine tweaks that reduced the power for just 5 horsepower to preserve the top speed of 186 mph (299 km/h).

The 2021 Hayabusa also features the new Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS) that introduces a few riding enhancements, such as:

  • Power Mode
  • Traction Control
  • Engine Brake Control
  • Bi-Directional Quick Shift System
  • Anti-Lift Control

Why did Suzuki bother to make this overhaul? It’s mostly due to the increasingly strict emission standards set in the UK and other specific European countries. You see, the 2020 Hayabusa with its 1,340cc engine that produces 188 horsepower at 9,700 rpm didn’t comply with Euro 4 and Euro 5 emission standards.

Suzuki actually first planned to rebuild the Hayabusa from the ground-up, without sacrificing comfort and power to chase the maximum energy efficiency. Complications due to COVID-19 arose, and Suzuki was forced to work with an older chassis where they fit all the mentioned features to comply with increasingly strict emission standards.

Fast forward to the topic at hand! Suzuki will reportedly open the bookings for the second batch of 2021 Hayabusas in July or August. The pricing will stay the same at $12,400/€10,128/£8,753.
