2025 Hayabusa - Share your thoughts

Looks like there's nothing much than a new color

Doubt we'll see any real changes besides different paint for the foreseeable future.

Certainly nothing major, why would they to a new model that has no competition. There isn’t another modern big bore Japanese Hyper bike.

In the next 12 months you will see minor changes to the late 25 built 26 model.
It’ll need post cat sensors, a different ECU and possibly a warning light to the dash.
Failing to do this will get it banned from sale in the UK, EU and anywhere else that follows Euro-5+.

Minor stuff not unlike how the Gen-1 and Gen-2 got upgrades during their runs, and I’d be surprised if Suzuki don’t after their Gen-3’s investment.

As emissions tighten and bikes like the ZX14R, GSXR600, 750, 1000 and R1 are all dropped from sale in some markets and getting zero development I’d be very suprised if the Gen-3 with minor updates isn’t the last Busa we see.
 
Things I'd love to see but know I won't would be a factory handlebar kit and panniers.
I’ve long said there’s a market for a Busa-GT. Factory luggage, higher bars, screen, centre stand, heated grips, seat etc. Not everyone want to start modding and trying to change their new bike. The development costs would be low carrying a lot over from the current model. Suzuki already do it with a range of K5 bikes, Kawasaki had the spin off H2 SX, even the B-King was Gen-2 based, it’s quite common.

A touring Busa or a naked Busa out of the crate would be interesting and not break the bank to do. I’m surprise they don’t use 25 years of Busa in more bikes.
