The Hayabusa, Suzuki's Straight-Line Weapon

The new Suzuki Hayabusa GSX1300R is seen here with a limited-edition white-and-silver paint scheme. Since it was first produced in 1999, the Hayabusa has been Suzuki's main claim to high speed. While it is not their most nimble racer and track performer, it is still their fastest straight-line weapon. It arguably has the fastest top-end speed of any production model -- at least until the test results come in on the new Kawasaki ZX14.
