No problems buddy ... we should take care of each other as we uphold the same riding spirits with the Peregrine falcon.

As for 99model, there are a few common faults. Fuel pump, subframe crack, exhaust popping and power jerking with aftermarket and chain tensioner are usually the ones happened. Sometimes again depends on rider themselves and luck with the bike. Chain tensioner and removing pair valves fitting aftermarket pipes are for sure.

If 3/4 tank no problem then it should be ok. It must be that fuel savagery.

The Kanji (symbol) on the Hayabusa fairing

 

Finally, more details on the meaning of the graphic adorning (Kanji) our favourite bike ! So what does Hayabusa mean ?

 

Further emails from Nomad (UH) has detailed that the symbol does not represent hayato - which actually is a title of a

religious man. Furthermore hayato has 2 characters. Hence the pronunciation of the symbol is actually 'jun' or 'hayabusa'. The symbol definitely represents the hayabusa.

 

For the record this is what I initially wrote : According to a Japanese colleague, the Japanese writing on the fairing is pronounced hayato or hayabusa. (See below for new details) Regardless of the pronunciation the symbol has a meaning approximating to strong and fast.

 

Update December 2004 : Thanks to Greg Pringle for creating a very extensive page on our feathered namesake http://www.cjvlang.com/Birds/falcon.html

 

Hayabusa Background

 

Based on many sources I have ascertained the following historical information about the Hayabusa. The name as you may have not heard comes from the Japanese Peregrine falcon. It is one of the few animals which can travel at about 300km per hour (in a dive). The designer apparently came up with the name whilst walking along the beach and seeing this bird. The colour scheme of gold/bronze and silver are similar to those of the falcon its self.

Believe of not - it is said that this falcon often hunts actual Blackbirds which I still think is a PR stunt !

 

Having done further research, the 'Japanese Very Fast Train' which travels at about the same speeds is also called the Hayabusa. I think this was this pre-dates the Suzuki use of the Hayabusa term.

 

*I have recently been informed that the term Hayabusa was also used to name a WWII Japanese aircraft. Designated the KI-43 it was built by the Nakajima conglomerate and was classed a fighter. This was apparently the first use of bird names for aircraft. *Thxs to the Aviator for the additional information !

 

The Hayabusa was first rumoured to exist during 1998. It was finally launched in Spain on the Catalunya circuit in April 1999. It joins the lists of top speed limit breaking bikes over the years. In fact it is the first production motorcycle to break the 300kph barrier ! The namer of the bike is reported to be Suzuki Product Planning group - Akihiko Muramatsu.

Local dyno machine are old school and boring ... they are only up 200hp and they are not accurate ... adding some vritual hp to make you happy. o_O

Moreover ... I don't see any really good tuner around. Electronic sold here are only 250rpm interval ... ... not siok enough. Need more options.

 

Sorry, I am not trying to poke, is an open discussion. :p
