The official global reveal of the 2021 Suzuki Hayabusa is just around the corner, and a teaser video of the bike has already been leaked online. Quite a lot has changed from the previous-gen models when it comes to styling, aerodynamics and electronics. We hope the same can be said for hardware, although there’s no concrete information on that as of now. The bike is slated to make its official global debut on February 5.
Let us quickly run you through all the changes on the 2021 Busa. The first difference you’d notice as soon as the updated bike pulls up alongside the previous-gen models is the sharper styling. Every line running from the front fender to the rear quarter panels looks edgier. The headlight looks sharper and is flanked by fang-like LED DRLs.
Massive intakes on the front fascia feed air into the engine and funnel hot air from the engine away from the rider using those ginormous exhaust vents on the side panels. Improvements like these along with the distinctive teardrop design of the Busa should offer a better drag coefficient and help the bike slice through the wind with ease. Tiny details like copper highlights around the headlight, side panels and rear quarter panels really bring the bike to life.
The angular fairing flows into two brand new and abnormally large exhaust end cans and a flatter tail section featuring a split LED tail light.
At the heart of it all lies a 1340cc mill, which is likely to remain unchanged. While there’s no official word from Suzuki we expect Suzuki to eke out a bit more from the engine to push it past the 200PS mark. This will not only make it lighting quick but also put it up against the likes of the Kawasaki H2, 2021 Ducati Panigale V4, and the Honda CBR1000RR-R. For reference, the previous-gen Hayabusa put out 195PS and 155Nm.
Putting a leash on all this power is a comprehensive suite of electronic ride aids which may include a bidirectional quickshifter, a 6-axis IMU, traction control, wheelie control, cornering ABS, engine braking and power modes-- all tweakable via new switch cubes on the left switchgear and viewed on a revised digital inset which sits smack in between the twin-pod analogue consoles.
The bike's hardware might witness some improvements. This may comprise of a lighter chassis, possibly a semi-active suspension, and top-notch Brembo stylema monobloc callipers.
As for the price, well, it's likely to cost around Rs 20 lakh to Rs 22 lakh in India initially as Suzuki may bring in the bike here via the CBU route. But that's still a fair price to pay for a bike this powerful and bearing the legendary Hayabusa name. Expect Suzuki to launch the 2021 Hayabusa in India by July this year. There are three colours to choose from: silver, white and black.

- SUZUKI HAYABUSAI choose it because it offers a rare blend of breathtaking power, refined handling and everyday comfort. The hayabusa is not just a bike it is an experience, combining performance, reliability and style in a way that makes it feel special. The ride so far is soo thrilling and super comfortable.

Yes i would suggest hayabusa if your priorities match what it does best. If you are looking for high performance superbike than it is a great pick. But if you mostly ride is slow city traffic it may not be the practical choice.Read More10 8
- Dream bikeObviously the aura , nostalgia and looks, when we talk about bikes and speed the first name that comes up is Hayabusa , it's looks and new design is more attractive than before , power and torque is also very good The ride was superb but as my personal, I'll prefer the bike should have the better mileage as well , sometimes it's feel like it's taking unnecessary fuel also when you're driving in minimum speed or same speed. For show off or fame if you're buying this bike so it is the waste of money but you're a real rider knows much about the bikes and engine so once you definitely prefer this bike even it's not under budget for many but still you'll prefer this oneRead More1 2
- Cons of the bikethis bike is way too heavy for a person and the average maintenance cost is about 12k per year and the steering radius is way too small plus if this bike falls down that's an immediate cost of around 53k. i personally would not recommend this bike until or unless you are way to muscular to handle a heavy duty bike or want to break your arms while taking u-turns.Read More6 13
- Baap level bikeGood but not for middle man 😅 Power & Highway Thrill Riders often say that once you’re past city speeds, the Hayabusa shines. Stable at high speed, very strong acceleration, and the feeling of being in control even at 140‑160 km/h is frequently praised Comfort for Long Rides Despite being a super sport cruiser, many find it surprisingly comfortable for long highway trips. The seating posture, wind protection, suspension soak up big road undulations better than many pure track‑focused bikesRead More5 4
