Suzuki Hayabusa is coming back, and it’s not bigger than ever. In fact, it produces less power and torque, is a bit lighter in terms of weight and is no longer the “widowmaker” that people remember from the ’90s.

In fact, the new Suzuki Hayabusa 2021 features a ton of new tech that makes it easy to ride in everyday conditions. The new bike does not aim for top speed but reliability and riding experience. It does not mean that the Suzuki Hayabusa is slow by any means. It’ll still go from 0-100 km/h faster than you can say “Woah.”

Nonetheless, the new Hayabusa comes with a slew of rider electronics, including an IMU, 10 level traction control, 6 riding modes, 3 level power selector, 10 level wheelie control, 3 level engine brake control. The bike comes with three factory-defined presets and three custom presets for the user to choose from.
