2021 Suzuki Hayabusa: Design

The new Suzuki Hayabusa is expected to feature a shaper and meaner design that will be an evolution of the previous motorcycle. That said, the new motorcycle does seem to retain the original's unique identity, albeit with contemporary design elements. Whether it is the large headlamp, the swooping fairing or the tail section, it is all reminiscent of the previous Hayabusa. The huge exhausts are another design element that makes the Hayabusa instantly recognisable.

Details about the new-generation model’s engine are still under wraps but a patent filing in 2019 suggests that the new Hayabusa gets a larger unit. The power and torque figures also expected to see a bump and it is rumoured to produce over 200hp. The teaser video shows the motorcycle hitting 290kph and it won't be surprising to see the Hayabusa cross the 300kph mark.

To transmit that power, there'll be a 6-speed manual gearbox although there are rumours that Suzuki may also offer a DCT option.
