I ordered a set of the clear side tank protector last week, unfortunately the tank pads are not clear and don't think i would look right in black with the contrasting silver of the bike
New things I'm learning about new busa
- Thread starter groran1000
- Start date
I run the Bridgestone s21s then came s22 and i ran them when they first came out i was surprised to see they were designed for hayabusa they are a good sport tyre for anything 600cc and over, the s21/s22 is my favorite front tyre period. its a super stable tyre under braking and going into corners

Yes but at 186mph not to sure about it with one little strip of it and after awhile if I want to take it off may ruin the paint... even after removing all the stickers on my new bike the paint underneath already looks wavy..smh... I used to like stickers as a kid but in florida after awhile if you leave them on and go to take off paint will be a different color and I always hated that.

My last tires were the S21Rs and they were great but lasted 1 season...I went to Michelins and so far so good...they heat up fast and stick really well...

I was going to order a prop stand when I realized it's the same one as my 2001 GSX-R1000:44574-35F00
Suzuki 44574-35F00 STAY, FUEL TANK

FYI.
I noticed the gen3 is much more nimble. I was used to riding a gen2 and when I fed the usual input into the gen3, it moved much sooner than the gen2. So, I have to learn to feed much less input. This will make it much better in the twisties. I wonder if it is the new style wheels? I know from feedback that carbon wheels change the bike, any bike into a new feeling bike, and is so different. I think is due to unsprung weight? I love the whirr when about 5-7k rpm, sounds like a turbo or supercharger spooling up, sounds so cool, love it!
If I recall, I remember reading about Suzuki changing the steering geometry slightly...that might account for the quicker steering.
First I've heard of this, any like or info?
I thought I heard it in the initial video on the bike....I'll have to re-watch it..

I think they changed the trail about a quarter of an inch, wouldn't think that would make to much of a difference...
I read this review which says the gen 3 is markedly better handling than the previous generations..due to improved suspension...
"The unchanged twin-spar frame combines with updated fully adjustable KYB suspension, which helps improve the handling tremendously over the previous generations."

We head to Utah's Miller Motorsports Campus to test the 2022 Suzuki Hayabusa, a bike not necessarily designed for the race track. Here's our review.

I can see someone whittling a broom stick to hold the tank up on a brand new bike and sending the picture to Suzuki....So you don't get the solo hump or a tank prop rod?? Talk about cheaping out, Suzuki.
I use a big screwdriver on the air box. Leaves the stem free in case you have any accessories mounted there.

They quit including the prop rod with the gen 2So you don't get the solo hump or a tank prop rod?? Talk about cheaping out, Suzuki.
,I was lucky enough to have one in the garage that I don't carry with me because I use it when working on bikes that aren't mine since I have my ram mount in the stem and can't use it.

My Gen2 had a prop rod, always assumed that it came with the bike new since every other Suzuki I have owned with a flip-up tank had one... I guess Rubb or another previous owner must have added it to the bike. Who knew?
