The '''Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa''' is a [[sports motorcycle]] made by [[Suzuki]] since 1999. It immediately won acclaim as the world's [[List of fastest production motorcycles|fastest production motorcycle]], with a top speed of {{cvt|188|to|194|mph|order=flip}}.

The Hayabusa is Speed in all its glory. But Speed is not all the Hayabusa is."<ref name=Koblenz1999/>

[[file:1999modelzwart.JPG|thumb|1999 Suzuki Hayabusa]]
When first shown to the press in 1999, the first Hayabusas made a profound impression.<ref name=Hoyer2007>{{harvtxt|Hoyer|2007}}</ref> No previous motorcycle has broken the production model top speed record by such a margin, {{cvt|10|to|14|mph|order=flip}}, depending on which measured speeds the source was relying on for the CBR1100XX and the GSX-1300R.<ref name=Brown2005/><ref name=Koblenz1999/>

{{nihongo||隼|Hayabusa}} is Japanese for "[[peregrine falcon]]", a bird that often serves as a metaphor for speed due to its vertical hunting dive, or ''stoop'', speed of {{cvt|180|to|202|mph|order=flip}}, the fastest of any bird.<ref name=Boehm2007/><ref name=Mancini2004>{{harvtxt|Mancini|Higdon|2004}}</ref> In particular, the choice of name was made because the peregrine falcon preys on [[Common blackbird|blackbird]]s,<ref>{{cite web|author=Sarlau, Vlad|date=January 5, 2017|url=https://riders.drivemag.com/features/suzuki-hayabusa-japan-s-mechanical-falcon|title=Suzuki Hayabusa - Japan's Mechanical Falcon|publisher=DriveMag Riders|access-date=July 29, 2019|archive-date=July 29, 2019|archive-url=https://archive.today/20190729132611/https://riders.drivemag.com/features/suzuki-hayabusa-japan-s-mechanical-falcon|url-status=live}}</ref> which reflected the intent of the original Hayabusa to unseat the [[Honda CBR1100XX]] Super Blackbird as the world's fastest production motorcycle.<ref name=Carrithers2006/><ref name=Hoyer2007-1>{{harvtxt|Hoyer|2007}} "When Suzuki first launched the bike, it explained that hayabusa was the Japanese word for a very fast falcon that, not coincidentally, fed on blackbirds."</ref><ref>Honda's Blackbird series of motorcycles do not take their name directly from falcon fodder, but rather from the [[SR-71 Blackbird]] aircraft. See {{harvtxt|Faux|1996}} and {{harvtxt|"Hey, Nice Covert Warrior"|2006}}.</ref> Eventually, the Hayabusa managed to surpass the Super Blackbird by at least a full {{cvt|10|mph|order=flip}}.<ref name=Brown2005>{{harvtxt|Brown|2005}} pp. 242–243, 276–277</ref><ref>Or by {{cvt|14|mph|order=flip}}. See {{harvtxt|Koblenz|1999}}</ref>

The first generation had a {{cvt|1299|cc|adj=on}} [[Radiator (engine cooling)|liquid-cooled]], [[inline-4]] engine with [[multivalve|sixteen valves]] driven by [[Overhead camshaft|dual-overhead camshafts]]. This configuration, technologically unremarkable for that time, delivered a record-setting claimed {{cvt|173|bhp|order=flip}} at the crankshaft by virtue of the largest [[Engine displacement|displacement]] ever in a sport bike, and a ram air system that forced cool, pressurized air into the cylinders at speed.<ref name=Brown2005/><ref name=Koblenz1999/> Combined with sophisticated aerodynamics, this powerful engine pushed the Hayabusa's top speed above the Honda CBR1100XX Blackbird by a significant leap, contrasting with the incremental gains that preceded the Suzuki hyper sport entry. The 1997 carbureted CBR1100XX had previously only inched past the previous top speed record holder, the [[Kawasaki Ninja ZX-11]] of 1990.<ref name=Hoyer2007/>

The Hayabusa's abundance of power at any engine speed made the Hayabusa easier to ride by giving the rider a greater choice of gear selection for a given speed and stunning acceleration.<ref name=Koblenz1999/>

The ram air ducts at the front of the drooping, rounded nose squeezed the frontal area away from the headlight, and this, along with the need for a narrow frontal area, necessitated a stacked headlight and high beam behind a single lens. Moreover, the need to reduce the extreme drag encountered at high speeds determined the Hayabusa's entire bulbous, and much-criticized, bodywork design. Koblenz remarked, "non-traditional styling generates the main controversy of the Hayabusa."<ref name=Koblenz1999/> When viewed through the eyes of those who judged its beauty on the basis of its functionality, or given a little time to get used to it, the bike's looks did find admirers.<ref name=Koblenz1999/><ref name=Webber1999>{{harvtxt|Webber|1999}}</ref> The striking two-tone brown/silver paint scheme was similarly loved by some and hated by others but was successful if the intent of an all-new, flagship product is to make a bold statement.<ref name=Koblenz1999/> So while it was called ugly by some in the press,<ref name=Levine1998/><ref name=Ker2007/><ref name=Carrithers2006-2>{{harvtxt|Carrithers|2006}}. "<nowiki>[For]</nowiki> those who aren't appalled by its bulbous silhouette... Styling reminiscent of a walleye pike."</ref> this aerodynamic shape was key to the Hayabusa's ability to reach record-setting speeds.<ref name=Brown2005/>

Reflecting in 2009 on the initial design, the creator of the Hayabusa's look, Suzuki's [[Koji Yoshirua]], said that the intent in 1999 was, "to create a somewhat grotesque design and create a strong initial impact... The mission was to create a total new styling that will not be out of date within few years, and a styling that will be the 'Face' of Suzuki." Yoshirua also said that the goal was not to achieve the status of the fastest production motorcycle, which in early stages was slated to be only {{cvt|900|to|1100|cc}}, but that, "as a consequence of, pursuing the best handling, acceleration, safety, power, riding ability, original styling, etc., for the good of the customers, it became the 'Fastest production motorcycle' … By doing this, once the model was out in the market and the performance of it {{Not a typo|have}} been proven, I thought that people will start to show interest to the weird design, and then the design would be caked in peoples mind."<ref name=Westlake2009>{{harvtxt|Westlake|2009}}</ref>

The engine used a gear-driven [[Balance shaft|counterbalancer]] to reduce vibration to the point that the engine could be solidly mounted to the frame, for the purpose of increasing chassis rigidity. Employing a conventional twin beam frame, fully adjustable [[Motorcycle fork#Telescopic|upside down forks]], using specially developed [[Bridgestone]] tires, and being relatively light at {{cvt|473|lbs|order=flip}} dry, the Hayabusa's handling was considered excellent for a machine of this class.<ref name=Brown2005/> One reviewer, Koblenz, noted a hesitation perhaps related to poor low-rpm mapping at low speeds, noticeable as a "pause and slight lurch" when rolling on and back off the throttle.<ref name=Koblenz1999/>

===Top speed limited by agreement===
{{main|List of fastest production motorcycles#Gentlemen's agreement to end competition}}
With rumors and then pre-release announcements of much greater power in Kawasaki's Ninja ZX-12R in 2000, clearly attempting to unseat Suzuki and regain lucrative bragging rights, the speed war appeared to be escalating. There were growing fears of carnage and mayhem from motorcycles getting outrageously faster every year, and there was talk of regulating hyper sport motorcycles, or banning their import to Europe.<ref name=Carrithers2006>{{harvtxt|Carrithers|2006}}</ref><ref name=Brown1999/><ref name=Cole1999/><ref name=Mahler1999/>

The response was a so-called [[gentlemen's agreement]] between the Japanese and European manufacturers to electronically limit the speed of their motorcycles to 300&nbsp;km/h (186&nbsp;mph).<ref name=Brown2005/><ref name="Clarify 300kmh">Sources vary as to whether this unofficial agreement is precise or only approximate, and whether it is defined as 300&nbsp;km/h or as 186&nbsp;mph, though the European and Japanese manufactures normally use metric units.</ref> The informal agreement went fully into effect for the 2001 model year.<ref name="sportrider.com"/><ref name="mpt.org"/> So for 2001<ref name="sportrider.com"/><ref name="mpt.org"/> models, and those since, the question of which bike was fastest could only be answered by tampering with the speed limiting system, meaning that it was no longer a contest between stock, production motorcycles, absolving the manufacturer of blame and letting those not quite as fast avoid losing face.<ref name=Motorcyclist2000/> Both Kawasaki and Suzuki would claim, at least technically, to have the world's fastest production motorcycle.{{Citation needed|date=December 2011}}

===Other developments===
After the inclusion of the speed limiting system in 2001,<ref name="sportrider.com"/><ref name="mpt.org"/> the Hayabusa remained substantially the same through the 2007 model year. An exception was a response to the problem of the aluminum rear subframe on 1999 and 2000 models breaking when the bike may have been overloaded with a passenger and luggage, and/or stressed by an aftermarket exhaust modification, so 2001 and later Hayabusas had a steel instead of aluminum rear subframe, adding {{cvt|10|lbs}} to the 1999 and 2000 models' approximately {{cvt|550|lbs|order=flip}} [[Motorcycle testing and measurement#Wet weight|wet weight]].<ref name=Motorcyclist2003>{{harvtxt|Smart Money|2003}}</ref>

Suzuki lightly revised the GSX1300R for the 2008 model year, with a minor restyling of the bodywork, and fine-tuning of the engine's [[Cylinder head|head]], pistons and exhaust. Though the engine changes were relatively limited, they still yielded a large horsepower increase, and brought the bike into compliance with new noise and emissions requirements.<ref name=Boehm2007/><ref name=Edge2007>{{harvtxt|Edge|2007}}. "An all-new 2008 Hayabusa featuring a {{cvt|1340|cc|cuin}} engine with a claimed eleven percent increase in performance headlines this late June announcement"</ref>

===Planning===
In 2004, [[market research]]ers from the US and Japan began working to identify which elements of the Hayabusa design had attracted so many buyers, discovering that, in spite of having its looks sometimes disparaged in print, customers were much enamored with the old Hayabusa. A redesign meant to strengthen the bike's appearance without departing much from the original found approval with dealers and focus groups. Underneath the skin, Suzuki decided to save considerable development cost by keeping major portions of the frame and engine unchanged.<ref name=Edwards2007/> This was because engineers had determined greater power was possible without a significant redesign of the old engine, even faced with the need to comply with more stringent noise and air pollution rules.<ref name=Kelly2007>{{harvtxt|Kelly|2007}}</ref> The target was to produce more than {{cvt|190|bhp|kW|0}} at the crankshaft,<ref name=Boehm2007>{{harvtxt|Boehm|2007}}</ref> and they delivered {{cvt|194|hp|kW|0}}, an 11 or 12 percent increase over the previous output.<ref name=MCN>{{harvtxt|Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa (2007-current)}}</ref><ref name=Edge2007/><ref name=Hilderbrand2007>{{harvtxt|Hilderbrand|2007}}</ref> When the new Hayabusa was released, independent tests bore this out, with {{cvt|172.2|bhp|kW}} @ 10,100&nbsp;rpm measured at the [[Horsepower#Effective (True, wheel) hp|rear wheel]].<ref name=MotorcyclistHardParts/><!-- Page 1 is 2007 (1st Generation), page 2 is 2008 (2nd Generation). 155.9 bhp @ 9,700 rpm refers to 2007. On page 2 is 172.2 bhp @ 10,100 rpm re: 2008 model.-->

Suzuki's Koji Yoshiura designed the look of the new Hayabusa. He had previously styled the first generation Hayabusa, as well as the Suzuki [[Suzuki Bandit Series|Bandit 400]], [[Suzuki RF Series|RF600R]], [[Suzuki TL1000S|TL1000S]] and the [[Suzuki SV650|SV650]]. For research, Yoshiura traveled around the United States to bike nights and clubs for a first-hand look at the styling aesthetic of the Hayabusa [[Custom motorcycle|custom]] scene and was inspired as much by the look and build of the Hayabusa rider as their custom bikes. While the second generation is very close to the first in overall shape and is largely dictated by wind tunnel tests, the raised lines and curves are meant to suggest a muscular build. Said Yoshiura, "I wanted to create a masculine form that complements a rider's muscular structure with hints of developed bicep, forearm, and calves."<ref name=Canet2007>{{harvtxt|Canet|2007}}</ref>

===Technical revisions===
Engine changes consisted of an increase in stroke by 2&nbsp;mm, enlarging displacement to {{cvt|1340|cc|cuin}}. The compression ratio was boosted from 11:1 to 12.5:1 and the cylinder head was made more compact and was given lighter titanium valves, saving {{cvt|14.1|g|oz}} and {{cvt|11.7|g|oz}} on each intake and exhaust valve, respectively. The valves were driven by a chain with a new hydraulic tensioner. The pistons were made lighter by {{cvt|1.4|g|oz}}<ref name=Kelly2007/> and used ion-coated rings and [[Shot peening|shot peened]] [[connecting rod]]s.<ref name=Boehm2007/> The crankcase breather system had [[reed valve]]s added to control pressure waves in the intake airbox, a way of avoiding power loss.<ref name=Kelly2007/>

Fuel injectors from the [[Suzuki GSX-R1000|GSX-R1000]] were used, with smaller {{cvt|44|mm|0|adj=on}} throttle bodies, called the Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) system. It has three selectable options of power delivery for a range of touring to wide open high performance.<ref name=Edge2007/> The exhaust system was overhauled, using a 4-2-1-2 system, meaning four exhaust outlets merging into two pipes, and then joining into a single pipe before splitting into two enlarged, quieter mufflers, which added a few pounds of weight compared to the first generation Hayabusa. The exhaust also included a [[catalytic converter]] and an [[oxygen sensor]] in order to meet [[European emission standards|Euro 3 emissions]] requirements.<ref name=Boehm2007/>

The suspension was upgraded with a 43&nbsp;mm Kayaba inverted fork with sliders having a [[diamond-like carbon]] (DLC) coating. The rear shock is also a Kayaba, and the overall suspension is firmer than the previous model. The swingarm is similar in design to the old one but was strengthened. The front and rear remain fully adjustable. The transmission was given a heavier-duty, [[slipper clutch]]. The final drive ratio was slightly lower, and gears 5-6 were spaced farther apart, and gear ratios 1-2 moved closer together.<ref name=Boehm2007/>

Ergonomic and cosmetic changes for the 2008 model include a higher windscreen, and interlocking gauge faces with a digital speedometer, as well as a new gear indicator and adjustable shift light. The fairing fasteners were hidden to uncomplicate custom paint work. The twin-spar aluminum frame was carried over from the previous version, and wheelbase, rake/trail, and seat height were the same, while overall length grew by two inches, and the taller windscreen added about ½&nbsp;inch.<ref name=Edwards2007/> Weight was saved by omitting the centerstand.<ref name=Boehm2007/>

Technical improvements in the chassis include Tokico [[Radial calipers (motorcycle)|radial]] brake [[Brake caliper#Calipers|calipers]], allowing smaller discs and therefore lower [[Unsprung mass|unsprung weight]], translating into superior handling. Increased front braking power<ref name=MCN /> necessitated a sturdier lower [[triple clamp]]. The rear brake caliper was moved to the top of the disc, giving a cleaner visual appearance. New 17&nbsp;inch wheels were designed, using Bridgestone BT-015 radials taken almost directly from the GSX-R1000.<ref name=Boehm2007/>

Other changes were a [[steering damper]] with a reservoir and dual cooling fans with a larger, curved radiator. Because of increased vibration from the longer stroke, the fuel tank was put on floating mounts. All told, the changes for 2008 resulted in a dry weight of {{cvt|490|lbs|kg|0}}, {{cvt|5|lbs|kg|0}} heavier than the prior generation.<ref name=Boehm2007/>

===Other developments===
Suzuki has dropped the GSX1300R designation in some countries and simply called the motorcycle the Hayabusa.

In October 2009, the company celebrated the tenth anniversary of the Hayabusa in Santa Pod raceway where more than 500 owners of Hayabusas converged. Many events were organized and prizes were distributed to people who visited the event.<ref>{{Dubious|date=May 2010}} {{cite web |url=http://www.suzuki-hayabusa.org/hayabusa-10th-anniversary-celebration/ |title=Hayabusa 10th Anniversary Celebration &#124; Suzuki Hayabusa |access-date=2010-01-14 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100308085506/http://www.suzuki-hayabusa.org/hayabusa-10th-anniversary-celebration/ |archive-date=2010-03-08 }}</ref>

There were no changes through the 2011 model year except for new colors.<ref name=Newbigging2009>{{harvtxt|Newbigging|
2009}}</ref>

Alongside the second generation Hayabusa, Suzuki developed the new [[Suzuki B-King|B-King]], a [[naked bike]] in the [[streetfighter]] mold, using the same engine but with a different intake and exhaust.<ref name=Boehm2007/><ref name=Potter2007>{{harvtxt|Potter|2007}}</ref>

==Sales==
Typically, a new sportbike model sells well in its first year, and then sees its numbers decline every year as it grows older. The Hayabusa reversed this pattern, selling in greater numbers every year from the 1999 launch through the 2008 revision.<ref name=Boehm2007/><ref name=Fivella2009/> From its debut in 1999 to June 2007 over 100,000 Hayabusas were sold worldwide.<ref name=Edwards2007>{{harvtxt|Edwards|2007}}</ref> In the United States in each of the years 2005 and 2006, over 10,000 units were sold.<ref name=Hutchinson2006>{{harvtxt|Hutchinson|2006}}</ref><ref name="motorcyclistonline.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.motorcyclistonline.com/features/122_0708_suzuki_hayabusa_history/index.html|title=Suzuki Hayabusa - All Hail Hayabusa!|website=motorcyclistonline.com}}</ref>

It was predicted that the gentlemen's agreement speed cap would hurt sales, because buyers would not want a bike that was hobbled with a speed limiter, even riders who would never approach the hypothetical maximum.<ref name=Boule2000/> However, sales in the United States increased year after year between its release in 1999 and 2006, rising from just a few thousand units in 1999 to over 10,000 in 2006.<ref name=Hutchinson2006/>

Bikes are typically built to impress with being the most extreme, and most innovative. For professional custom shops, the status as the first builder to introduce a new style or customization — a 300&nbsp;mm-series rear tire width, for example — is often hotly contested, and can pay dividends in media attention and in sales.<ref name=Seate2006/> Celebrity customers, such as [[rappers]] or [[National Basketball Association|NBA]] stars, also serve to build the credibility of a custom shop.<ref name=Seate2006/> The bikes themselves, at shows, racetracks, dragstrips, and at build competitions, also serve as "rolling billboards" for their makers.<ref name=Seate2005>{{harvtxt|Seate|2005}}</ref><ref name=Dolgner2009>{{harvtxt|Dolgner|2009}}</ref>

Bikes are usually built around a theme,<ref name=Seate2006/> such as a [[NASCAR]]-inspired bike with retro-70s [[Chrome plating|chrome]] wheels, racing numbers, flames, and sponsor insignia reminiscent of a [[stock car]], or a bike that takes its cues from popular films, such as [[Freddy Krueger]] of ''[[A Nightmare on Elm Street]]''. Other common motifs in custom artwork are sexy women, skulls, bones and other gruesome figures, and money and [[bling]], such as "[[Benjamin Franklin ($100)|Ben Franklins]]," $100 bills.<ref name=Seate2006/>

[[File:Busayukon.jpg|thumb|alt=Side view of a modern sport motorcycle with enclosing bodywork, painted black with a US flag on the side, a decal in the shape of the state of Oklahoma, and the legends Highway Patrol and State Trooper|Oklahoma Highway Patrol Hayabusa]]In 2006 the [[Oklahoma Highway Patrol]] (OHP) converted a [[Asset forfeiture|seized]] Hayabusa into a pursuit vehicle, setting up the bike with equipment including a radar unit, police lights, and siren, and painting it in official colors and insignia. Impressed with the positive response from the public and the motorcycling community, the OHP purchased two more Hayabusas, to supplement their main fleet of [[Harley-Davidson]] [[police motorcycle]]s. While they are used for patrol, the primary function of the Hayabusas is public relations and community outreach, due to the kind of attention the exotic bikes attract. According to the OHP, "There are clear lines dividing sportbike and [[Types of motorcycle#Cruiser|cruiser]] motorcycle riders. We feel the sportbike community has not been given the proper amount of attention and focus in the area of community involvement and rider safety education."<ref name=Dealernews2008>{{harvtxt|Oklahoma Highway Patrol Uses Hayabusa|2008}}</ref>

In 2009, [[Humberside Police]] in the United Kingdom put an [[undercover]] Hayabusa on the road, equipped with speed detection equipment and a video camera, as part of ''Operation Achilles'', which aimed to catch speeding motorists and motorcyclists.<ref>{{cite news | url= http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Humberside-Police-unveil-186mph-superbike/story-11966618-detail/story.html | newspaper= [[Hull Daily Mail]] | title= Bikers' protest ride at police tactics >vid | date= 24 March 2010 | access-date= 6 January 2010 | url-status= dead | archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150701022035/http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Humberside-Police-unveil-186mph-superbike/story-11966618-detail/story.html | archive-date= 1 July 2015 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news | url= http://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/2009/july/jul2009-12-months-jail-for-speeding-biker/ | newspaper= [[Motor Cycle News]] | title= 12 months in prison for 139mph speeding biker | date= 20 July 2009| access-date= 20 July 2009}}</ref>

In the town of [[Arecibo, Puerto Rico]], the [[Puerto Rico Police]] operates a "superbike unit" composed entirely of seized Hayabusas that have been outfitted with lights, sirens, police livery and radar equipment for speed enforcement duty in the northern region of Puerto Rico.{{citation needed|date=November 2022}}

In late 2021, the Arecibo municipal government announced the acquisition of seized vehicles for the Arecibo Municipal Police in conjunction with the Puerto Rico Department of Justice, among them a Hayabusa. Like the Hayabusas owned by the PRPD, this Hayabusa has been outfitted with lights, sirens and police livery to be used as a patrol vehicle in Villas del Capitán Correa, located at the northern part of the town.<ref>{{cite web | url= https://islanewspr.com/2021/12/03/arecibo-municipio-adquiere-motora-hayabusa-y-patrulla-porche-cayenne-para-la-policia/ | website=islanewspr.com | title= ARECIBO: Municipio Adquiere Motora Hayabusa Y Patrulla Porche Cayenne Para La Policía | date= 3 December 2021 | access-date= 20 November 2022}}</ref>

Introducing the [[Vision Gran Turismo#Suzuki Vision Gran Turismo|Suzuki Vision Gran Turismo]]: the 'Hayabusa' Engine and Electrification Technology in an AWD Super Sport. The base chassis is a front-engine, rear-wheel drive layout with a front mid-mounted engine, but adds electrification technology to combine the engine with electric motors, to complete the all-wheel drive system. The front mid-mounted engine is a 1340 cc inline 4 cylinder used on Suzuki's ‘Hayabusa’ flagship sports bike. Furthermore, a total of three motors, two for the front drive and one for the rear drive, have been added. The combined total output of the system is 318&nbsp;kW (432 PS) / 9700 rpm, with a maximum torque of 610 Nm (62 kgfm).

The Hayabusa engine has also proven a popular choice for use in single seaters within the British Hillclimb Championship, due to the integrated gearbox and light weight packaging. They are used in various configurations, ranging from stock sized engines, enlarged naturally aspirated engines, supercharged and turbocharger conversions. It is also not uncommon to see these engines run on methanol fuel, since it allows the naturally aspirated engines to run higher compression ratios and the force induction engines to not use an intercooler, thus further saving weight in the car. One of the more successful Hayabusa powered single seaters is the GWR Raptor, designed by [[Graeme Wight Jr.]] These cars have produced up to 480&nbsp;hp while weighing less than 400&nbsp;kg with a driver aboard and prove competitive against the larger, heavier and more powerful V8 cars.
