Suzuki Motorcycle India has confirmed that the new Hayabusa will be launched in India in April, 2021. Its launch date and booking details are yet to be revealed by the bikemaker. Unofficial bookings, however, have already been commenced at select dealerships. The 2021 Suzuki Hayabusa comes with improved styling, more features and an updated engine. The bikemaker claims that the super sport tourer’s new model is the “quickest Hayabusa ever”.
The 2021 Suzuki Hayabusa derives its power from the same 1340cc, 4-cylinder engine, which has been calibrated for offering stronger torque delivery. Compared to the old motor, the updated one has new and lighter pistons, new connecting rods and updated fuel injections. Though, its power and torque outputs have been reduced from 197bhp to 190bhp and 150Nm respectively. For performing transmission duties, it has a 6-speed gearbox with two-way quick shifter and an autobilpper.
The new Hayabusa underpins the same twin-spar aluminum frame. Featuring new, lightweight Euro-5 complaint exhaust system, the 2021 Hayabusa weighs 2kgs lesser. The super sport tourer has a ground clearance of 120mm and a seat height of 800mm. The updated Showa suspension, Brembo’s Stylema calipers at the front brake and Bridgestone Battlax S22 tyres further enhance its performance. Check Out – New Suzuki Hayabusa Akrapovič Exhaust Note
Some of its key highlights include a new six-axis IMU, ten levels of traction control, ten levels of anti wheelie control, three levels of engine brake control, three power modes, cruise control, cornering ABS (anti-lock braking system), hill hold control and launch control.
The 2021 Suzuki Hayabusa has been equipped with a newly-designed LED headlamp and a new TFT display. Buyers will have three new colour options to choose from – B5L (Glass Sparkle Black/Candy Burnt Gold), BS5M (Mat Sword Silver/Candy Daring Red), B5N (Pearl Brilliant White/Metallic Mat Stellar Blue).
In India, the new Hayabusa will be brought via CKD (Completely Knocked Down) route. It’s estimated to be priced between Rs 17 lakh – Rs 18 lakh (ex-showroom).
