The report of Hayabusa getting discontinued is applicable for just European and Japanese market while as even before ending the production, they will produce enough motorcycles to keep the Hayabusa running in India for entire 2019. Suzuki Hayabusa is available in two new shades and price increase of INR 20,000 was charged by the brand. In comparison to the Hayabusa, Kawasaki ZX-14R registered zero units in the sales chart during this 30-day period.
Suzuki is working on the next generation Hayabusa that will support Euro-6 engine and may launch with enhanced power output through supercharging. The motorcycle is also expected to use lighter frame and body than the present version. The present version is available with a 1340cc, four-cylinder engine producing 200 HP of power output. It weighs 266 kg, all thanks to the conventional frame and use of standard parts that are not into weight saving. Suzuki is enjoying a niche segment as buyers who love powerful bikes and does not have any problem with the heavy wet weight choose Hayabusa over litre-class bikes.
