However this isn't a Suzuki Corp dyno....almost each and every dyno will give a different value, some generous and some less generous...
Suzuki themselves gave out a hp value and I believe what they sent out, I can't see them understating the value as this is what sells bikes these days...
If the gen 3 had more overall power than it's predecessor, Suzuki would be crowing that to the masses...
Mid range is handy, that's what made my Bandit so great, it had gobs of mid range.
Just realized I'm stirring up an old conversation. I came across this post while searching for dyno results of stock gen 3 Hayabusa. I bought a brand new 2023 Hayabusa last April and due to a few upgrades I've done to it recently (Brocks full system, Sprint air filter, Carbonsmith Velocity Stacks), I had to get it tuned. The dyno results I got were 177 bhp @ 10.26k RPM so I was curious to know how much the bike made in bone stock form.
When I searched online to find out how much HP does a stock Gen 3 Hayabusa produce, I got a wide range of figures:
187.75 HP,
188 HP and an (acclaimed)
190 HP. These figures, based on what I'm getting on the street with the mods, seem to be far from the truth. Perhaps its the desert climate, where I'm based, that has produced lower HP output.
The most realistic dyno results I found online for the Gen 3 Hayabusa were posted by Rider Magazine, in their review of the 2022 Hayabusa. They
quoted 172.90 HP @ 9.800 RPM on a rear wheel dyno (not sure what that is). The dyno test was conducted in California, so probably similar climate to what I have in Dubai (maybe less warmer, as the article was published in October). I found no mention of power output figures on Suzuki America's website.
Again, as you said, different dynos produce different results and the ambient temperatures also impact results. In any case, I'm happy with what I'm getting, as its sufficiently fast for me
