The first number of blinks are the number of keys registered on the bike (two from factory), the final light is to show the immobilizer is working. If it doesn't recognize a key it won't work and the light stays on.

The braking is insane compared to what I'm used to.
The sounds are also great, specially for being stock exhaust. It does have a whistle to it at higher revs, I love it. It's like a constant whistle and not a chirp sort of sound a super charger has.
I'm so short and never had problems with wind on the zx14r and don't have any problems on the Hayabusa either.

Proper legend bike not the sorry excuse that has the name now
The latest rendition in my opinion is a far cry better than what came in between....

How do you feel it compares to the zx14r.?

True but the distinct lack of effort to actually design a bespoke bike is comical with the new bike... Also detest the digital dash
I think Suzuki has a reputation for doing this....re-hashing proven designs.
I like the new bike (Katana) for what it is-I think Suzuki could have made it a little closer to the original and still kept it's technological edge....the original instrument cluster only modernized would have been a great place to start.
In some ways, the Hayabusa has just been re-hashed from the original...Suzuki set the standard then rode it's reputation....the difference is the Katana's reputation has been so tarnished, no bling will ever revive it.

Any particular aspect of the bikes you're wondering about? I answered a bit earlier in this thread with a general comparison between them.
Riding it like it should be ridden....
That's what the journalists should have done in the first videos....imagine the eyebrows of the Suzuki reps.....
You know THAT for a fact, that new Busa will be put through the wringer.....

But my dad liked yellow so he would've had bumblebee for sure... le was nice because they finally went with a black frame blended so well with black plastics... crazy the 2 guys that post the most on here would've been the 2 colors my dad and I would've been on ... was gonna get 06 le but figured go with 08 since it's a newer model with already having a 99... but you can't beat those 2 colors they are very rare to see.
My bike is a "frankenbike" It originally was a black bike but the yellow fairings were added to make it different...it is a one of a kind.
I lusted after a gen 1 LE at one time but the one I wanted was just priced too high.....and the guy wasn't budging a cent....
