New Hayabusa a Certainty for 2008?

It's amazing to see how many reckless testosterone idiots are out there. Most people can't even handle the power of a 600 CC cycle. Most pros will tell you that any idiot can go fast in a straight line. It takes real skill to corner and stop!

Look at Canada where the insurance is so high on performance bikes that most people can't afford them at all. I think that this bike is a mistake; though an impressive one.

It also takes skill to launch a bike like this and get it in the 9's in a 1/4 mile. I watched N. Haden only run 11.4 in the 1/4 on his moto gp bike. He wheeled and boged of the line a little. Does it take more skill to corner, absolutely but drag racing takes some skill as well.

Will suzuki come out with a 1400 or 1500 hayaybusa and if so will the design stay the same as the 06,or 05 etc that would be beautiful keep the same style but make it bigger then the older models and when will it come out. We all need to write to suzuki and tell them don't make the bike look like 1000gsxr are anything smaller keep the same style but make it bigger.Peace

The true confirmed engine size of the new Busa is going to be 1365. They'll probably call it a 1400, but the actual displacement will be 1365. This info I am giving you is directly from a point of contact I have at Suzuki.

But would the style of the bike stay the same as the 06 or 05 etc don't change the barkey look please tell your source.

I hear the 2009 busa will be a 1600

I recently purchased a 08 Busa and I must say that it is the most impressive bike I've ever saddled, I do mean saddled because you're definitely in for a thrill. It is so smooth and powerful that it makes you want to just ride and ride as if there is no tomorrow.
