2013 Suzuki Hayabusa REVIEW!

[@Jimbob-zn6bl]

I own a 2018 Hayabusa & I love it. Only changed mufflers to slip on megaphones & it made the purr turn into the mighty Lion Roar!! Wow!! Scary fast superbike!!

[@Pete128]

If you've never ridden a Busa you just can't imagine the experience. It's a great bike and it will do most things really REALLY well!!! (Just not off-road :) )

[@rentacop88]

I got a 2014 50th Anniversary edition, and im not changing shit… is perfect the way it is, love it❤

[@MrMurphc13]

I had a 99 busa a few years back,since ive had a 08 CBR1000RR and next week im trading my Aprilia RSV4 for a 2013 hayabusa ABS. I always missed my busa....a little more comfort,much more torque,the bike handles well enough,large tank range,sexy stand out looks. Bottom line...a dude that had the 1000cc bikes cant wait to come back to the 1300 Hayabusa.Im 33 now and we all need to go through a few bikes to see what suits more....cant wait to come HOME:)

[@yourfastlife]

Nice! BUSA FO LYFE!! LOL

[@UncleRobsGarage]

There's something about a busa.

[@chrissiler598]

I've been riding a cbr 600 for almost 2 years now and I'm looking for something that is more comfortable for long rides and that still will do ok in the twisties. Looks like this might be my new bike soon.

[@derekm8667]

This is a very well done review. Absolutely right about the GT aspect of it. The bike wants to go fast and does so with ease, but it doesn't make you constantly want to ride like a hooligan. If you want that experience get a 1000cc RR bike. The Gen 2 Busa may not be the fastest bike out there anymore but 99% of riders would still never be able to push to the limits of this bike's performance. Especially on public roads. While it's true you must have self control or this bike will kill you, it is one of the most satisfying, well rounded and powerful motorcycles you can own... Still.

[@andymartin9529]

Just got a 2013 HAYABUSA. Everything u said was on the money. I'm loving my bike!

[@yourfastlife]

congrats! Thanks for sharing!

[@iandavies6620]

Damn this is really screwing with my head! I'm thinking about changing my 2008 Blackbird. The ZZR1400 had got me convinced that was the bike I wanted but now having seen this I'm not so sure. I hated the look of the Busa but that white paint job is a thing of beauty! Back to square one :D

[@mafiahalo93]

186mph isn't the top speed for the bike just get it de-restrict and it will get to 200mph+

[@UncleRobsGarage]

Mine did 190 with me on it,but I'm over 6',and 200,and this was the first year.

[@florme6494]

I love the iconic look of the Hayabusa, always have. The only thing that has stopped me from buying one is traction control, or the lack of it. I ended up buying a zx14r. The looks, comfort, electronics and speed. I’ve been tempted to get one of these as well, just for the experience.

[@florme6494]

Ninja ZX-12R you sound like an absolute looser. Traction control was designed for a reason, and has probably saved many many lives. You are probably a guy that rides around with no helmet and no gear because you think you’re cool while everyone thinks you are a complete looser. Such an ignorant comment really shows your intelligence.

[@SteveGoodness]

best looking motorcycle ever made, it´s a piece of art.

[@hunterleebrown]

Your review is exactly why I got mine (in April). LOVE it and love it the more I ride it. A gentle giant, comfortable, and just goes for days in comfort and absolute power when I need (or better yet, want it.)

[@yourfastlife]

Nice! Yeah, I had no idea it was so awesome.

[@rodanderson1922]

am thinking very seriously of swapping my 08 Harley Soft-tail Deluxe for a "New" 2013 Hayabusa, and after watching this review, I will most likely do it? The idea of Brembo and ABS is very appealing, as is the well earned reputation of the "Busa". For the record I am 56 years old, and will never use any where near the horsepower the Busa has, but that's ok. I have had my Harley for several months, and while it's a great bike, i'm bored. The Busa will never be boring i'm sure.

[@yourfastlife]

You have 3 power modes to play with too. You can turn into a kitten or a tyrant(with right RPMs/mode). It's really best of both worlds to me. It has the comfort of touring bikes without the negatives except weight. Then the fun of supersports, but BIG powerful supersports not "slow" 600s. lol

[@rolandsv8]

+Your Fast Life! In my opinion the mode switch is absolutely useless. The only way i would actually use mode C if there was a risk of ice on the road. It does not have qualities of traction control- it just changes the throttle response and actually messes the whole relationship between throttle opening and acceleration. Even in wet no point of using it as you just wound not want to ride so close to the limit of loosing traction, so just leave it mode A and be careful. At least your brain will not be confused by change in response to throttle in different modes

[@yourfastlife]

rolandsv8 To each their own. I personally like it.

[@thingsilike9477]

This is the best motorcycle review ever. Wish I had seen it before.

[@yourfastlife]

ian davies I think technically the Kawi is better, but if I'm gonna ride a big overweight bike, I want the busa. I would ride both bikes to decide. Busa IS nice though!

[@chrisgrundberg9212]

I loaned my Busa to a buddy that has rode most his life. He called it a “flying sofa”. Extremely comfortable but twist your wrist and it comes alive.

[@joenguyen-vlog8063]

Got to love the Hayabusa. 😍😀

[@diegodelpuerto5162]

Hi, i’m thinking about getting the haya 2014, usually i do long trips, have you registered the mileage ? At some of my trips i had a gap of 270 miles between gas stations.

[@techevar]

Before I purchased a Busa I thought it was all hype...and then I bought one. It far exceeded my expectations. You can ride it like a grandpa or like a speed demon and it behaves well in both. I think for me it's the most comfortable sportbike that was ever made!

[@carlylespicks]

If you want to see how fast the Hayabusa really is, check out 03:30. Nuff said...

[@JayShakur]

It's fast, but I still prefer the corner carving nibleness of the GSX-R1000 over the big Bus. Especially the 2005/2006 model.

[@carlylespicks]

Jay Shakur The Hayabusa is pretty nimble in the right hands. I'll do a video.

[@pbbeast1788]

Could i get this as a first bike if i kept it in mode c for the first 2-3 months and mode b for another 1-2 months after that?

[@carlylespicks]

pbbeast No way. It's too heavy and expensive. Many new riders drop their bikes. I don't even know if I could lift this thing. Also, when you mess up and the bike starts to fall, it's nice to have a light bike so you can brace it up and save it. Unless you are super strong, if this bike starts to fall, you going down. Also being human, trusting yourself to use it in mode C is not advisable. That one time you decide to be brave, might be your last. Most experienced riders can't even handle this bike. Not that it's hard to ride in a STRAIGHT line, but if you need to swerve and stop fast, you need some good skills.

[@pbbeast1788]

Carlyle's Picks i only weigh 95 pounds so i doubt there a bike i can lift

[@ChrisReed-o7n]

You just need to use the rear brake more on the Busa. I love mine for touring.

[@augustusmaximus891]

How do you take the fairing off?

[@irregularrex4004]

ABS will actually make your stopping distance longer when it activates. All it does is keep the wheels from locking up. More confidence and stability sure but technically you get less stopping power.

[@rolandsv8]

+Joe Spano Theoretically what you are saying is correct, but only if done by virtuoso rider. Abs will save your ass by preventing you kissing the tarmac long before stopping distance becomes the problem. And i talk from my own experience here when i locked the brakes when idiot in Yaris pulled in front of my Busa(pre ABS) from minor road. So i decided that i need technological aids on the bike for those extreme occasions. Got ZZR1400 and am absolutely astonished how brilliant and polished it is comparing to Busa. Not to mention very noticeable power advantage

[@irregularrex4004]

rolandsv8​ Well of course, that's what it's for. It keeps the wheels from locking up so you can still maneuver however you need. I had a fun experience on my zx10r when a lady in a civic pulled in front of me. I locked the brakes up and luckily was able to drift around her car (would've have been an issue if I had abs). She didn't even know what she did. But my comment was referring to this guy saying something along the lines of "this bikes equipped with abs so it's got massive stopping power". It just gets under my skin a little (as I'm a mechanic) when people who don't understand how a system works makes comments like they do. Glad you didn't end up worse from your wreck. Ride safe brother. 

[@irregularrex4004]

Btw I'm glad you came to the dark Kawi side! Welcome! Lol

[@rolandsv8]

+Joe Spano Yea, maybe you can drift on zx10, but Busa without ABS just drops like a brick

[@rolandsv8]

+Joe Spano I am ecstatic. Busa was a marvellous bike for it's time. But now it's an obsolete 17 year old dinosaur. Still with lots of charisma, of course.

[@bten1786]

Drop some weight by getting rid of those big exhaust cans. Do a single side exhaust or mini slips ons. Easily drop 30 pounds I would guess. Get rid of the rev limiter for sure. More under there to be had from that motor. They also have a lot of accessories and custom part for Busa’s. Can make it your own ride for sure. I love them

[@aleksandarbotic979]

Hey man great review, how tall are you?

[@MrMurphc13]

The Hayabusa is a nimble bike.On the road in the real world there wont be much difference if any between this machine and a 1000cc bike.Especially in the right hands. This bike as mentioned in this video is a sportsbike,a tourer,a cruiser and much more. A 1000cc is a trackbike plain and simple.Most of us ride on the road only. If you've only ever ridden 600cc-1000cc sportbikes and have "certain impressions" of what this MIGHT be like to own/ride then try one....you'll be amazed!!!

[@carlylespicks]

You have got it!! This is my main channel BTW. Glad you like the video and you get it!

[@oldgriff2649]

I’ve now owned my 09 Busa for 4 years having previously owned Daytona’s and Blackbirds it is possibly the best bike I’ve ever ridden..

[@BibTheBoulderTheOriginalOne]

I have now owned 5 of these beasts, and am seriously considering a sixth. Darned things are addictive...

[@drotegu6]

Bro that was a bad ass review! Never even really cared to look into this bike because of it's size but man you got me interested!

[@yourfastlife]

I thought this was just for squids who want to show off and have the fastest bike, but even though that CAN be true, does not change the fact it's AWESOME for the distance sports rider like me!

[@dute007]

[@znismo1]

Love the Busa in white bro and those Brembos siiicckkk.. mine is a 2011 so unfortunately they didn't have the Brembo brakes yet.. are you going to Busa Stampede this year?

Awesome freaking review man... Should shoot top gear an email saying that they need to hire you for bike :D

[@yourfastlife]

LOL, I'm not selling out any time soon. They work for the advertisers while I work for you! I don't have to say a bike is great for fear that I won't get one to review next time. I'm in nobody's pocket. Top Gear? I don't know but I do know pissing off Lamborghini or Ferrari would be bad for business. For me it won't matter. :D

[@supervikingbud]

I've owned a Ninja 600 and a kawi ninja 750 and I've always wanted a Kawasaki ZX-14 ABS.Though its alot of money and I have the oppurtunity to get a 2013 Daytona yellow/Black Suzuki Hayabusa limited in a good deal.I like the crazy bubble big bike look of the Suzuki Hayabusa and it looks fun and performs great.Carlyle is very excited about the Hayabusa which is Great.I get excited when I drive and own a good Bike also.

[@jameswaterhouse-brown6646]

I’m only 7 years late but…really enjoyed that!

[@yourfastlife]

Curry_Nation OK, so let me see if I follow you. You think a goose rides like a high performance luxury car with a solid and plush ride? If not, why would you say i'ts the same difference? This bike, like the cars mentioned share similar characteristics. Quiet, comfortable and stable. Why compare it to a car? Because it rides like no other bike I have ridden and therefore it was a closer match to use a car when speaking SPECIFICALLY about the traits in question (the ride). I even find it more comfortable than the Aprilia Caponord which is a touring bike.

[@sant1to]

I have a question. I'm a future biker and I'm curious to know why and if this is really a bad bike to start off with. I understand the massive power, also a limited 186mph on two wheels is no laughing matter but say I got it anyway what would be some good advice to tame it better and quicker?

[@dagr8sp]

sant1to I'm a very new biker and I'm frankly afraid of these large bikes. I'm riding a 600cc. It depends on you as a rider of course but I asked myself the same question and decided it's best to learn for a few years on a CBF600 (cheap to buy, to fix and insure) and then upgrade, rather than jumping on an expensive 1300cc straightaway. Only with experience can you learn to control the kind of power these things have. As a beginner, the temptation to open the throttle can be too great..

[@nightrider3067]

sant1to Stop by and ill show you how.I started on a Hayabusa.Its powerful but it can be done.And i haven't been down at all.

[@mc1dash1b]

sant1to A smaller bike is like a pair of inline skates compared to a skate board. The skates are more integral to your body and easier to control instinctively. A skateboard takes a little more practice to be truly skillfull enough to do all the tricks. A smaller bike has a lot of performance potential; a good rider masters basic control and then tests the performance limits of that particular size. My first new bike was a Suzuki 550 and handled like a dream. My Busa handles like the 550 but is much heavier. I still haven't run the Busa to redline yet and I've got 40 years of experience. I wish I still had the 550 because I could take it to the limit. You could learn on a Busa but why bother? It's really more fun to go in stages. I went 350cc,550cc,700cc,750cc,1100cc,1340cc and they were all fast and fun.

[@nightrider3067]

I did not want to waste time and money buying bikes i did not want .I am so glad i did too

[@i_read_bad_reviews]

Here I am planning to get one for my first bike

[@angelokush2309]

What is a good beginner bike

[@yourfastlife]

Hell yeah! Mode C at 1500 RPMs going 20MPH...all beginner baby! Until the corner comes up!

[@yourfastlife]

Sorry! I'm so busy preparing for the Ninja H2 launch on 9/30. I did not read your comment properly. I recommend: Ninja 250R HANDS DOWN! Ninja 300 if you have money to waste when you possible drop it.

[@angelokush2309]

The 300 is nice but I'm only 15 so i think i have to be like 18 to get one .

[@Zilvinas0sanivliZ]

Angelo Lopez If you're restricted to 125cc, like me, you can get a YZF R-125 if you have the funds, they're excellent. However if you don't have much money to spend and still want a beautiful bike, I'd say (in my opinion) get a Hyosung GT125R. I have on myself, although the non ''R'' model (naked) and I love it. It's physical size is like a 400cc+ bike. It's one of the biggest 125cc's out there. After riding my 2007 Hyosung GT 125, I sat on a z750 and it felt smaller! These Hyosungs after 2007/2008 are not too shabby mechanically wise either if you take care of them (just like any other bike).

[@huskyreportOFFICIAL]

Angelo Lopez If you plan on upgrading i'd say get a (older) Ninja 250 and then move up.

[@LemurKrazy]

@@blakeh5318 only had mine for a year - rode it every day but had an accident and lost the bike. No issues with the bike at all other than being overkill as a commuter. Have owned a VFR800 since then which is a more general purpose bike. Really like the new busa and may own one some day.

[@loganhughes8601]

I was wondering how tall you were?

[@yourfastlife]

6 feet

[@MotorcycleExtremist]

Great job on this. I'd like something weight wise between a middleweight and this bike. I just don't want to deal with the kind of weight, even if it hides it well for the most part. I just did 1000 mile trip on my Gladius with added windscreen, and my major complaint comfort wise is the seat. It's a total man-parts muncher. For my next bike I'd like something that has an integrated luggage option and reasonable passenger accommodations. Right now the closet thing to that ideal I've found for myself is the new BMW R 1200 R. Although I'm no BMW fan, this bike for me would be an exception from what I know of it. I'm hoping more bikes that fit me needs are introduced for the 2016 model year, because right now the R 1200 R stands alone in that regard.

[@yourfastlife]

Gotta get a good seat for sure!

[@yourfastlife]

BroScienceLabsCorporation Not when it's so slow. 1000cc bikes can go faster than Busa. That is not Bugatti status. This bike is also cheap and dated. The Bugatti is the H2R and H2. Comfortable, fast, next generation tech and expensive.

[@unknownstudd69]

Your Fast Life! how is going around 2.7 from 0-60 slow, are you serious? Hayabusa is still one of the fastest bikes around. The reason I'am comparing it to Bugatti of motorcycles is because of how BIG while being fast, something the new H2 lacks, is the SIZE. I have looked up the H2 stats, but haven't really found any official stats. The design of H2 looks hideous, and it looks so small to.
