- 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. The stability at high speed inspires confidence and the handling feels refined making both highway cruising and sharp turns enjoyable. I really loved it. 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 More
