The 2012 model of Australia's most popular, high-powered sport
tourer motorcycle^, the Suzuki Hayabusa has touched down in
Australia, sporting a brand new, eye-catching Candy Red colour
scheme.
Originally introduced in 1999 and consistently tested as the
fastest production motorcycle in the world, the iconic Hayabusa
redefined the hyper-sport category and in doing so required its own
classification - 'ultimate sport'.
Named after the Japanese bird of prey capable of speeds in
excess of 300 km/h, the Suzuki Hayabusa has been designed for
maximum performance and represents the pinnacle of sportsbike
engineering, performance and styling.
Packed with race-bred technology, the 2012 Hayabusa features
Suzuki's Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection system and a
1,304cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled, four-cylinder engine providing strong
power delivery and impressive torque throughout its broad
powerband.
Suzuki's original Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) lets riders select
one of three engine maps to suit road conditions and their riding
preferences, while the slick-shifting six-speed transmission works
in conjunction with the innovative Suzuki Clutch Assist System
(SCAS) back-torque-limiting clutch to deliver smooth and controlled
downshifts.
Dual 310mm front disc brakes and a 260mm rear disc brake combine to
provide plenty of stopping ability to tame the Hayabusa's
power.
A lightweight twin-spar aluminium-alloy frame and aggressive and
sporty styling complete the potent package.
Available in a new Candy Red colour scheme or a classic Black
colour scheme, the 2012 Hayabusa is now available for a Recommended
Price of $18,990\*, backed by Suzuki's two-year, unlimited kilometre
warranty.
