I seriously can't stand motorcycle reviews. Because they are SO VAGUE and they don't give any details whatsoever. AHHHH... How can someone spend hours and hours riding something and then just say "it has good power." Most jounalists should be FIRED on the spot. You would NEVER see a car review, where they talk for 30 minutes without providing any information. These facts must be talked about in a "review" video: 1.) Engine smoothness. 2.) Torque curve and power delivery characteristics. 3.) Gear ratios and cruising RPM at 70mph. 4.) Vibration in the foot pegs and bars. 5.) Seat comfort 6.) Gas mileage. 7.) Highway wind noise and helmet wind buffeting. 8.) Comfort in traffic, chain lash, clutch pull, ease of steering at slow speed.

Just got my 2022 'Busa 2 months back and you've nailed this one hands down.... bravo !!! ...I haven't been on a sport bike in 6 years had a Harley for the wife, that thing was awful !!! Sold it 4 years ago.... Pulled the trigger on a Black And Gold in February and can't be happier, it's heavier than my GSXR 750 then again i'm 59 now so this is a better fit but it's realistically a great smooth powerful handful of bliss !!! my face hurts from the stupid grin a hand full of throttle produces !!! Thanks for the video .. i agree 100% on all points you made. Keep your tires planted and stay safe brother !!! TT

I feel you. I got a silver and red, and it's the first 'Busa I've ever ridden. Coming from a modded '06 ZX-10R that used to eat 'Busas and ZX-14s for lunch, this one feels much more powerful (on Mode A). While the ZX-10R felt almost like a tight rubber band when accelerating, like a turbo car, the 'Busa feels like it just time-warps. The pull is instant and feels never-ending. Smile maker for sure. 😁 I've never felt such delicious acceleration before, and that's short-shifting. I've yet to give it a full wristful and kissing the redline. I feel no curiosity at all, because at only 1/2 to 3/4 throttle it feels like the bike wants to rip my arms off and keep going by itself. I have to watch the speedo obsessively. I have no intention of reflashing the ECU when it becomes available. In mode A, it pulls satisfyingly hard for me. Mode B feels weaker down low and Mode C feels like an entire different, much slower bike with a more rubbery powerband feel. If I do anything, it'll be some exhaust slip-on at the least, and a full system at the most. The stock ones are so quiet. Be safe and enjoy your toy! 🤓👍

I don't know if I would have a need for all the electronics, I wish Suzuki would allow a choice in when choosing my new bike I could order it without all of those intrusive rider aids. I want to feel it, I want to use the skills that I have and also practice to be even better when riding a bike, I don't want the bike riding me. I totally understand that Suzuki needed to add the electronics on the new Busa to keep up with the times and the competition, I just wish it were an option. When I do get my new Hayabusa I will just turn everything off so I can ride it and enjoy this beautiful bike to it's full potential.

Why do people in the UK refer to the tank capacity in liters then say miles per gallon?

And an English mile is exactly 26.2 feet longer than an American mile too. The Founding Fathers shortened the mile in America so the continent would seem bigger.
