Suzuki: Peregrine falcon approaching Switzerland
COMEBACK After two successful previous generations and over 180,000 units sold worldwide, Suzuki is bringing back the Haybusa. The familiar 1.34-liter in-line four-cylinder engine has been modified to meet Euro 5 standards. Surprisingly, the Hayabusa's (meaning peregrine falcon) powertrain is slightly tamed in power and torque. With its 190 hp, it produces seven hp less than last time, and torque dropped by five [...]
Surprisingly, the Hayabusa's (meaning peregrine falcon) powertrain is slightly tamed in power and torque.
With its 190 hp, it produces seven hp less than before, and torque has dropped by five Newton meters to 150 Nm, but is available a little earlier.
Top speed just under 300 km/h
Nevertheless, a top speed of 299 km/h should be possible again with the GSX 1300 RR. And the 3.2 seconds for the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is not to change.
Of course, the new edition comes with plenty of electronic helpers. Three of the six driving programs can be individually configured.
Focus on engine longevity
Brutal power and unrivaled top speed - such attributes are associated with this legend. For 2021, Suzuki decided not to focus on more power, but on the longevity of the engine, which has been completely revised.
All measures to make the engine stronger and lighter. Suzuki is aware that the Hayabusa is very popular in the tuning scene and that a turbocharger sometimes finds its way onto the machine.
The Peregrine lands with the agent in April. According to importer Suzuki Switzerland (part of the Emil Frey Group), it will be available from 22,995 Swiss francs in black/gold, silver/red or white/blue
