I chose the bike because I really like the brand, it's iconic style and its powerful performance. It also feels comfortable and stable on the long ride, which makes a great choice for me. As Hayabusa is one of the better choices amongst the high-performance sports bikes for long rides. It's comfortable and relaxed sport-touring position. The stability in the highway is excellent as it is planted and smooth. the engine is quite powerful and effortless to overtake, downside about is in the traffic it gets hot and is heavy as it gets tiring sitting in the posture for several hours. Yes, I would definitely recommend the Suzuki Hayabusa to someone who is looking for powerful, stylish and comfortable bike. the reason I would recommend it is its combination of performance and long-distance comfort. The iconic design stands out on the road and its stability. It is more comfortable than many other high-performance sports bikes. However, I would recommend it mainly to experienced riders because it is a heavy and powerful bike, it can be difficult to handle in heavy city traffic, and maintenance, fuel and running costs.Read More
Service and maintenance charge is normal, mileage is 50 - 55 kmpl on highway, 45-50 kmpl in cities and streets. Overall, it is a quite good bike with good performance and minimal costs. Everyday rides upto hundred kms can be done easily, I ride daily around 80 kms and it is very easy for me and it's a sports bike even with only 125 CC engine.Read More
