Hayabusa

[BANANASKIN]

Yoo greg, u still have the MACH3 VCD? Can burn 1 for me then sell to me or not?

[Ah Teck]

well, the haya might look intimdating at first, but its really not..... just because the ZX12R looks more streamline doesn't mean that it is any easier to handle.......

 

Just ask Taylor, I'm sure she finds the Haya a nice ride, just like Ah Teck....and the millions of other Haya owners............

 

Sorry, who is TAYLOR?

taylor is the only female busa rider in this forum...

dun be surprise

[RobVanDam]

does she bring her bike to marina square 7-11 on saturday nights?

[Greg]

smaller bikes like R1???

 

But I must say she has style..., right greg??

[Greg]

Hey People,

 

Taylor is the ONLY girl I know riding a haya.....there are probably other girl/women haya riders but I don't know any.....

 

Just quite impressed 'cause the haya is quite a big bike....even imtimidating to male riders.....

 

Sometimes, it is not about the cost of the item but the daringness to do it.... for example, some people won't sky dive even if the sky dive was free..... so there........

The color scheme of gold/bronze and silver are similar to those of the falcon itself.

The falcon often hunts Blackbirds

actlly she's only slightly shorter than me and long legged. and i would believe the blkbird has the lowest seat and easiest handling due to its upright handling....

Interesting..... but sorry, the Busa is 5cm lower than the bird. mind you the ZZR11 is 20cm lower still! Not sure about the ZZR12 though.....

 

I think the lowest Sportbike is the ZX6R at 73cm. Mind you nothing a visit to the many "seat shops"(who can shave off a few more cm from nearly any bike in sg) cannot cure.

 

Still, what is a few cm.... ladies can always wear high heels with a metal plated heel!!!!

[Greg]

regardless of height or otherwise.....all bikes are adjustable.....stock just means it comes from the factory at default settings....all can be altered.....

ONE thing for certain. The Kawasaki ZX-12R is the most powerful production bike weve ever had on the dyno. It;s also one of the greatest road bikes of all time. But it isn;t THE fastest.

Congratulations Suzuki. Get out your polishing cloth and dust down the top-speed trophy. It looks like it set to stay in your cabinet for a very long time.

Even though the ZX-12R produces an outrageous 180bhp at the crank & a figure that would have seemed impossible for a production machine a couple of years ago the Hayabusa remains the ultimate bike for the highest figures on your speedo ; by a clear 7mph.

A crisp morning in Leicestershire gave us all the answers

We are at Bruntingthorpe, one of the few places in the country where you can get a genuine top speed out of the worlds fastest production bikes. Its cool, but bright. Except for a sidewind, the conditions are almost perfect.

 

The big question on the lips of the assembled MCN crew is whether or not the ZX-12R will beat the Busa over the two-mile straight.

 

For the first time we have them together on the same day with the same rider in the same conditions.

 

Theres a buzz of excitement as the first bike comes into view. It;s the benchmark all others will be measured against... Suzuki;s Hayabusa. This is the machine most people feel has the most to lose. It is the current speed king ; the one the Kawasaki gaping mouth and outrageous power was always thought to be chasing after.

 

Each bike is given four chances to rush through the timing lights as fast as possible with the same rider on board. Test rider Kev Smith, a 10 stone racer who been tucking in behind fairings at Bruntingthorpe for the past eight years, is the man to bring you those all-important numbers.
