FASTEST MOTORCYCLE IN THE WORLD


Hi guys this is my first post on bikes and its about one of the fastest bike in the world Suzuki Hayabusa GSX1300R .It is every bikers dream to ride this machine.A machine that captivates the gaze. I've long been fascinated by the the Suzuki Hayabusa. To those of us who saw the sportbike evolve over the last 15 years. From the '86 GSXR750 to where we stand today, this bike is by far the pinnacle of progress.When u look at it- it seem huge. But once ur riding, it feels like a toy. 

The Hayabusa in unlike anything u have ever ridden before. When you rev the motor and accelerate off into the distance, it feels designed for this. As if it's sole purpose were entrenched in allowing the ride to travel at any velocity in relative safety and ease . You realize now the level of discipline and restraint it requires to own this bike. Well, maybe I wouldn't call it restraint, but just plain discipline. The whole package takes some readjusting as to what you might think of as normal. You're headed down the freeway, the speedometer indicates 70 mph, yet it barely seems to have risen around it's circular path.

                     One of the most interesting things I ever read about the Hayabusa is instead of pulling wheelies when you grab a fistful of throttle, instead the bike will rocket forward and slowly pull the front tire off the ground. 

                   
When you sit upon this bike, it has a wondrous feel that occurs when your hands contact the handlebars. It's a tingle that flows through your wrists, arms, shoulders and causes a sensation of warmth to flow across your chest.
