  • We've got our hands on a Suzuki Hayabusa and we plan to build the ultimate GT bike. Trim some weight, up the power and head off to the Nürburgring
    for some fun!

    I really like your format. Not just testing bikes or doing silly things like 44 teeth (more and more Top gear alike) but an actually useful content. The more I look at this busa the more I like it.. . Just all this chrome really makes it look cheap.

  • @allwheeldrive
    @allwheeldrive 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Yep, the Busa is just begging for this! So many older Busas running around with Helibars, dropped pegs, a bit more windshield and bags (of many sorts), it's always been just an aftermarket afternoon away from real GT status. Will be watching how this unfolds with GREAT interest!

    If you are turning a Hayabusa into a convincing GT bike then I think a good idea would be to knock up an effective luggage carrying solution too...

      Just needs a tail pack.. Go as fast as you like, don't notice it's there.. Don't use panniers or top boxes ... They ruin high speed handling...

      If I could suggest you have a look at Krugger tail packs.. quick to put on and off.. solid mounted with under seat straps, it's waterproof... And can add on other packs .. My mate got one.. so I copied him.. Get quite a bit in there . They are brilliant..and as I said you can ride as if it's not there..
      So luggage carrying sorted..
      I'm not sponsored by them either...

    True. In 1999 it was meant to be fastest bike. I think nowadays it tries to be comfortable sports touring bike, and for that it seems pretty great actually.

    @mudwhistle74 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I had a similar plan with my ZX14R. Put a full Yoshimura single muffler system that lost 12.5kg and then a lithium battery lost another 4kg. Inch riser under the bars helped with comfort. I did the power commander as well. With the front chirping put a zip tie in a fork leg and check if they are bottoming out can help. Looking forward to seeing what you do. 👍

    Interesting reading these comments.
    I had a Busa, dropped vario footpegs, Helibars, double bubble screen, and I also used the Kruger tail packs on the rear seat. Superb luggage!!
    Did the whole Akra 4into1, airbox mod, PCiii, custom map, MCT suspension job, and brake upgrade.
    It was an awesome distance tool, and I'm 6ft4". I also bought a BMW GS for touring, and sold it soon after because the Busa was so much better at covering ground.
    Only sold the busa because after 3 years, I couldnt believe I still had a license. Very easy to go very fast. I miss it!!!
    Bloody love a BUSA

    Think it was more of a gentleman's agreement with the European Authorities...can't remember where I heard it but I think that there was a feeling that the idea of a 200mph+ production bike development battle resulting in several production models of ever increasing speeds especially motorbikes, might encourage people to ride that fast on the roads....and a certain amount of reaction to the idea, was starting to look more like possible legislation limiting both power and top speed....at which point the Japanese manufacturers agreed on no more than 186mph in return for no further movement towards official restrictions being necessary....and so we ended up with the current way of things as a result.... Also as always Just incredible videos and content Chris...Thanks So much & as Always Very Very much Appreciated too...!!!! :)

    Exactly what I planned to do for quite some time with a gen2 pre-abs bike.
    Brakes first (as the 2nd gen brakes are not regarded as the best setup) then remove weight, sort the suspension, some pillion and luggage provisions (removable, installed for trips) and maybe a bit of a tune as a last thing
    Inject a bit more of dynamic capability while not harming what the bike is already good at, making a bit of a "universal sportsbike concept"
    Hopefully one day..
    Interested to see what you will come up with during this project, maybe I can take some inspiration!

    Love this! Did the same to my Gen II. Dropped 48lbs, lowered pegs, raised bars, taller windscreen, retune, etc. Named it ICBM because nothing covers miles effortlessly like this bike. Even built custom hard bags, but decided that was a step too far. Very interested to see what raising the front does.

    As has already been said you guys are just kicking everyone else into touch for content and fun. Just as an aside you comment about the 186mph limit. Japan use km/h and 186mph equates to 300km/h, nice round number I feel.

    It will be interesting to see how it turns out as a fast tourer. I have a Holeshot turbo on my Gen 2 Busa and it still rides as a pretty normal road bike until you wind on the throttle. I’ve had it at 238mph on a track so a bit over the top for road riding. I like the look of the new Gen3 model, I will watch with interest how the modifications turns out👍

    I've always like the Hayabusa for what it is but calling it "really comfortable" for a sports tourer is pretty subjective considering the tiny windscreen, low bars, high foot pegs and no luggage capabilities. Although I guess you can turn any bike into a tourer if you throw enough money at it.

    I have kind of done this a different way - 1290super duke R, full akra and map, rear soft panniers and a tank bag. It is still a ripping supernaked but can cover long distances and still be loads of fun. The only downside is wind protection, but for me it is a big plus - I just find it way to easy to sit at > three figures on faired bikes, I end up going too fast on my tenere ffs :) PS - It is good to see another mini kei truck in the UK.

    @ragerider6283 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great vid & idea. So interested to see how this plays out & totally agree. Get rid of the restrictions to liberate what it already has & drop as much weight as possible. The Akrapovic full 4 in to 1 system supposedly adds about 9bhp & drops 14kg. Get it re-mapped & chuck in a race air filter too & 200bhp at the crank is possible if you're so inclined. Give it a lithium battery too & you'll be getting close to about 245kg. Depending on the budget you could go for some lighter wheels as well but no doubt a pricey option.

    They shave off every once from handlebars to enhance sport character from a bike which is not sport bike to begin with.
    Then they add engine cage, panniers and 100 pounds worth of stuff just to change this motorbike into touristic machine.
