Ever since we introduced the Suzuki Hayabusa, it's had only one competitor: Itself. That's why the new 2008 Hayabusa is so impressive - compared to the original, it's hotter than ever. For enthusiasts, that comparison will make your heart pound. The new Hayabusa's engine is thoroughly updated for more power and an improved power-to-weight ratio, which you'll experience as an even greater rush of acceleration. Its refined chassis and suspension help provide crisper handling. And its striking new fairing offers sleeker aerodynamics. The original Hayabusa was the best. With the 2008 Hayabusa, you're looking at better than the best. | Specs | | Engine: | 4-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC | | Bore Stroke: | 81.0 x 65.0mm | | Compression Ratio: | 12.5 : 1 | | Fuel System: | Fuel injection system | | Lubrication: | Wet sump | | Ignition: | Electronic ignition (Transistorized) | | Transmission: | 6-speed constant mesh | | Final Drive: | RK GB50GSV Z4, 114 links | | Overall Length: | 2190 mm (86.2 in) | | Overall Width: | 735 mm (28.9 in) | | Overall Height: | 1165 mm (45.9 in) | | Seat Height: | 805 mm (31.7 in) | | Ground Clearance: | 120 mm (4.7 in) | | Wheelbase: | 1480 mm (58.3 in) | | Dry Weight: | 220 kg (485 lbs) | | Suspension Front: | Inverted telescopic, coil spring, oil damped | | Suspension Rear: | Link type, coil spring, oil damped | | Brakes Front: | Disc brake, twin | | Brakes Rear: | Disc brake | | Tires Front: | 120/70ZR17M/C (58W) tubeless | | Tires Rear: | 190/50ZR17M/C (73W) tubeless | | Fuel Tank Capacity: | 21 L (5.5/4.6 US/Imp gal) | | Color: | Orange/Black, Black/Gray, |
