I just rewatched this and listened to the story at the end about both your olds running their Fireblades into a ditch and having to go rescue them. This says a lot about you Chris, or should I say explains a lot. What a legendary tale! You have sold me on a Hayabusa 100%.
Can;t wait to get my 2024 Busa. Chris along with Ari and Zack are my favourites when it comes to anything biking. @revzilla get Chris on one of your episodes.
I own a 2023 Hayabusa (all black). It is my 6th Hayabusa, and by far the best incarnation of the lot. Power is exactly where I want it, and the electronic package is the icing on the cake.
@@atillaadn IMO the Gen 3 is the best version of the 'Busa....however, I have recently sold it on, and replaced it with (again, in my opinion) the more comfortable ZZR1400.
I got mine delivered last month, metallic thunder grey, it's everything I ever wanted in a motorcycle, big but still nimble, absolutely gorgeous from every angle, stable and safe with the 6 axis IMU and the best part, it's still got that monster torque sledgehammer of an engine. I scouted the market for about half a year before pulling the trigger, nothing checked everything I wanted except for the hayabusa and when you look at the price, especially me getting it for black friday for under 16k there was nothing that came close, the kawasaki h2 se sx was over 10 grand more, and that's for a supercharged smaller CC engine with much higher maintenance costs and somewhat dodgy reliability and some other cons plus my personal preference where I don't like kawasakis
Chuffed to pieces when Chris talks about a road and bend I know very well in my neck of the woods! Gotta say though, I'd rather be riding out in Wales these days.
Greetings, As always another brilliant detailed video 🇺🇸🍾🎉🇺🇸 What brand is your touring bag? Thank you so much for assisting me, keep producing more videos.
Great watching all your content. Hopefully bump into you at the bike show again. So is this the one bike you'd keep. Or is there another love out there ? 👍🏼🍻
I love this class of big bore sport bikes. I've even owned a couple zx14r's but just the cost of insuring these bikes is 💰 💰 💰. Main reason why I ended up selling mine. That and it probably would have destroyed my license.
I've ridden one for a long distance and I'm a naked bike/sport touring type. I found it VERY usable and comfy. Just have to be cautious when filtering the first time.
@@nabahmadi5012 I haven’t ridden it that long but 2/3 short rides and I found it super comfortable amongst all the Superbikes ( not ridden any other SBKs except R1 2009 model )
Dragging a bike out a ditch ain't exactly hilarious as I found out with my 2003 RSV mille, I made the same bend with no problems at twice the speed with my Ducati 750 sport, the Mille handling was crap in comparison
I tried the Hayabusa, and I think it is not that comfortable for long riding, because of the riding position, which is relatively low. I really believe that Suzuki can win a lot of new clients, if they just make a version with higher handlebar and a little more upright position. It shouldn't cost Suzuki much to make that new version, and it can be very profitable. Suzuki .... ??
Not really. I'm 6.1 and close to 300 pounds, long legged when I first rode one. Going from my naked bike to that it felt initially awkward, after 10mins I was fine. Rode it an hour and was very comfortable. Much better than any super sport.
Please don't say "Go fast" (to the young spectators) - even if these kinds of bikes are engineered for exactly that purpose 😅🙃🤐- How many deaths due to bike accidents in the UK in 2021? More than 300. I guess most of them died young -
Don't think that's fair, if this was a 125 or even a A2 compliant bike and we were purposely targeting young and new riders I would agree with you. BTW, from I can remember, people coming back to riding after a long break are the most likely to be involved in an accident.

Totally agree. Chuck in Ryan F9 for a bit of a change and that's the Holy Trinity if content right there! 😂👍

How do you compare it to 2013-2017 Busas which are equipped with ABS and brembos? Better brakes?
@@atillaadn IMO the Gen 3 is the best version of the 'Busa....however, I have recently sold it on, and replaced it with (again, in my opinion) the more comfortable ZZR1400.
Just fitted the same Akrapovic system to my gen 3 and I’m getting it tuned next month. This series has been awesome
So many opinions on this bike from so few that have not left there moms basements, to go test ride one in real life. Gen 3 is a fantastic motorcycle.

5:03 Put your family board up there.... a great memory....
Know that corner well, its fairly sharp, lovely countryside.
I just love Busa content. Would have loved to see some Busa track action.
On my 3rd busa, went to Spielberg for motogp all day comfortable a real everyday superbike brilliant
Loved the vid, love the bike ❤
I❤LOVE❤HAYABUSA❤
The busa is a fantastic all round bike period
bikeworld, do you think the 3rd generation hayabusa is more comfortable, for long distance riding, than the bmw s1000RR ?

What brand is your touring bag?
Thank you so much for assisting me, keep producing more videos.
Awesome once again! How about a comparison of some kind of crowd favourite mt07 stock vs pimped?
Great watching all your content. Hopefully bump into you at the bike show again. So is this the one bike you'd keep. Or is there another love out there ? 👍🏼🍻
NICE BIKE
Currently on my 3rd gen 2 busa.
Had supercharged , turbo & now N/A 1476 drag bike.
Nothing else comes close
A destination bike for time travelers.
That SW-MOTECH Cargobag looks smart.
Nice
What tail bag is that on your rear seat?
R E S P E C T
Would love to see tge busa compared to what I consider its only rival, the h2sx. Especially this busa with the tune vs a tuned h2sx would be awesome
Chris, I'm surprised you didn't take it off road to show it could really do it all!
Hi did, for a very short time though. The internet hated us for it: vm.tiktok.com/ZGJTBUocc/
I like the gen3. I still prefer my gen1 for pure blasting but the gen3 is more like a very fast vfr and for most riding thats a good thing.
What's the name of the tailback product?
sw-motech.co.uk/collections/tail-bags
Have you noticed any problem with delay/hesitations on the quick shifter when doing hard pulls?
Hell yeah!
They sit unsold in dealerships. It's why many thought the 3rd gen wouldn't even happen.
Looking forward to the next long termer you get.
Not sure where you are but here in Australia they can’t get them in quick enough
@@jockojockoson9995 Pun intended? 😂
Time to take this busa to the next level with a Stage 2 turbo project. Show that TTS busa why everyone runs turbo power. 😄
Hope they do.
Turbo is different level , perfectly streetable if its built properly too .
Would embarrass the TTS effort on road or track
The best bike ive riden, but underpowered
I love this class of big bore sport bikes. I've even owned a couple zx14r's but just the cost of insuring these bikes is 💰 💰 💰. Main reason why I ended up selling mine. That and it probably would have destroyed my license.
So what you got now then?
I will stick with my H2.
The Hayabusa does look good though (once the exhausts are changed).
Thanks Chris...
you need to get your eye sight checked, mate, busa's are horrible. (Unless you get a Greggscustoms gixxer thou tailconversion)
@@Emily-ou6lq I was trying to avoid the hate that busa lovers could aim this way.
My bike gsxr 1000 k8 has 265tkm. First Engine.
Indestructible.
The Busa has always been a poser and this model is no exception. Don’t know if I can get one or not but surely it has a special place in my heart…

Why can't anyone pronounce Akrapovic properly!

Your mum had a bike?! Wow. Not many guys can say that.
Hypersport touring bike
Honda RC213V-S vs KTM GP
Want a brother for my MT09 but money money momey.
This bike is very disappointing. Suzuki should have either increased the displacement, supercharge or even turbo charged it from factory.
Did you watch the vid?
Do you even know what's involved with regulations? Easy to say "should have/could have".
This isn't the 80s anymore kid.
Yeah, but you have to be 5´7" and 160lbs to really fit on that small bike.
Not really. I'm 6.1 and close to 300 pounds, long legged when I first rode one.
Going from my naked bike to that it felt initially awkward, after 10mins I was fine. Rode it an hour and was very comfortable. Much better than any super sport.
Bike World! I have an ultimatum for you: You get a Greggscustoms GSXR 1K tail conversion or I unsubscribe!😐🤣
