Suzuki Hayabusa 1300 History,Features,Specifications (Full Guide)

The Suzuki Hayabusa (also known as the GSX1300R in some countries) is a hyper sport motorcycle originally introduced by Suzuki in 1999. It has a 1,298 cc (79.2 cu in) inline-4 engine and was consistently tested as the fastest production motorcycle in the world before the 2001 detuning agreement. The 2009 model has a MSRP of US$ 13,199.

The name Hayabusa translates directly from the Japanese as Peregrine Falcone, The bird is said to be capable of speeds of over 200 mph (320 km/h) — and predator of (perhaps not coincidentally) the common backbird.When introduced in 1999, it overtook the HondaCBR1100XX Super Blackbird as the fastest production motorcycle. The first generation of the Hayabusa was called the GSX1300R and was powered by a 1,299 cc (79.3 cu in) inline-4 liquid-cooled engine. It remained substantially unchanged up through the 2007 model year.

Hayabusa 1300 Features
1. 1340cm3 in-line 4-cylinder fuel-injected liquid-cooled DOHC engine built to deliver a broad wave of torque for effortless acceleration while reducing emissions.
2. Hard, smooth chrome-nitride Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating on the upper compression and oil control piston rings reduces friction while improving cylinder sealing.
3. Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM) cylinder plating improves heat transfer, durability and ring seal.
4. U-shaped cutouts in the cylinder-bore sides allow air below descending pistons to escape to adjacent cylinders to reduce internal pumping pressure and mechanical power losses.
5. Lightweight titanium valves allow use of lighter valve springs and higher lift while maintaining accurate valve control. Iridium spark plugs produce more complete combustion.
6. Curved radiator with a compact, dense-core design and engine-management-computer-controlled two ring-type electric fans mounted on the rear of the radiator, increasing the control accuracy and keeping engine temperature stable.
7. Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) serves as back-torque-limiting system for smoother downshifts and also contributes to a lighter clutch pull.
8. Optimized 6-speed transmission; oil spray to the 4th, 5th and 6th gears reduce wear and mechanical noise during highway cruising.
9. Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection results in improved power delivery, a more linear response, better mileage and less emissions. This system uses engine-computer-operated secondary valves to maintain optimum intake-air velocity for maximum combustion efficiency.
10. Two 12-hole fine-spray injectors on each throttle body improve fuel atomization for better combustion efficiency and while reducing fuel consumption.
11. Idle Speed Control (ISC) system improves cold starting and helps maintain stable engine idle under various conditions.
12. Suzuki Pulsed-secondary AIR-injection (PAIR) system ignites unburned hydrocarbons and reduces carbon monoxide emissions.
13. Large-volume catalyzer further reduces hydrocarbon, carbon-monoxide and nitrogen oxide emissions to help meet tough Euro 3 and TIER 2 emissions regulations standards.
14. Dual large-volume triangulated and tapered mufflers, shaped for increased banking angle and cornering clearance, enhance power and reduce noise.
15. Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) enables the rider to choose from three different engine power characteristics according to personal tastes and riding conditions. It offers enjoyment of top performance in a wide range of riding situations.
16. Advanced, wind-tunnel-refined aerodynamics offering superb wind protection both for normal and completely tucked-in seating positions.
17. Twin-spar aluminum-alloy frame built with castings and extrusions. The torsional rigidity of the aluminum-alloy rectangular-cross-section swingarm is increased by 10 percents.
18. Rear subframe made of rectangular steel tubing for increased weight carrying capacity.
19. Inverted cartridge front forks featuring Diamond-Like Coating (DLC) surface treatment to reduce stiction and improve reaction to small surface irregularities.
20. The front forks and the single rear shock absorber both have fully adjustable spring preload, compression and rebound damping.
21. 3-spoke cast-aluminum-alloy wheels shod with 120/70ZR17M/C (58W) front and 190/50ZR17M/C (73W) rear radial tires.
22. 310mm (12.2-inch) dual-floating-disc front brakes with efficient, race-proven aluminum-piston, radial-mount brake calipers, and 260mm (10.2-inch) single-disc rear brake with single-piston brake caliper.
23. Quality detail finishes - passenger footpeg brackets, muffler hangers, footpeg/control brackets - evoking the fine art of feudal Japanese armor, Yoroi-Kabuto.
24. Standard-equipment steering damper.
25. Integrated front turn signals form the outer edges of the ram-air-intake scoop.
26.Vertically stacked headlight featuring a projector high beam and a halogen-bulb multi-reflector low beam.
27.Unique tailsection featuring streamlined bulges carrying integrated rear turn signals and shaped with jet-engine motif.
28. Bright, durable LED taillight, with clear inner lens and red outer lens.
29. Four analog gauges including step-motor-driven tachometer and speedometer. Round LCD panel includes clock, gear position indicator, S-DMS map indicator, odometer and dual trip meters. Engine-rpm indicator, programmable to blink or stay on between 4,000 and 11,500 rpm.
30. Silver metallic trim around the analog gauges and LCD panel evoking American GT muscle-car image.
