Can't wait to see someone retrofitting the engine into a Smart. I'd totally rock a Smartbusa.
I mean... where else do you get a small RR car suitable for DR that would smoke 99% of cars on road without breaking the bank?

Suzuki had a small press conference in Japan to show a little idea of what the new Hayabusa is going to look like. Not much info for now.

Silly... I've owned a lot of bikes up to a 954RR Fireblade and I sold it because it was ridiculous. 160 in 2nd gear? Really? It's way more Fun to ride something smaller and run the piss out of it through the gears and feel like you're really ripping it but not be going suicide speeds lol... Just my opinion

Hayabusa is laggy below 6000rpm in any car form. Hope the turbo will give more mid low end power
