  1. not me i am guessing Ian , a chatham lad let loose in Maidstone
  2. that is the worst Gen2 colour "Look at the picture of gen2 and gen 3 side by side. I noticed where the heat came out from the hole next to our knee or close to it, it looks like on gen3, that vent is at foot level where the heat will exhaust much lower near the engine cover. All right Suzuki!! Tank is lower too, allowing a lower tuck. The windshield on gen3 seems to sweep down lower going good with the lower tuck. Also looks like the lean scratchers on foot pegs may be longer. I guess if they make noise in lean, better not go any farther perhaps. Also, may not need a tank knee pad as the black plastic is there where on gen2 there is a painted tank. Somebody has been thinking here!! The signal light on gen3 is now integrated into mirrors as in gen2 a teardrop case on both front and back, which would be a source of wind drag or turbulence. The grab handle on gen3 is lower in height. Fairing on gen3 appears to be swept back from right below hand grips all the way to the bottom and much more smooth and flowing showing extensive wind tunnel work!! Instead of several geo angles going in all directions. Maybe the pic, but the seat gen3 seems a little longer."
  3. Sleeping bag outside Laguna Motorcycles , spanking DD3 now in Garage, trusty Gen2 now homeless
  4. have to wonder if he calculated using optimistic speedo/odo could be 9% fast could be 39.2 MPG
  5. comments from a UK Gen3 buyer on Hayabusa.org "Got mine this morning... Racked up 90 miles and love it.... Some backward moves function wise with the adjustment and view in the mirrors but otherwise its every bit a hayabusa.Returned 43.1 uk mpg on a true mix of open roads and stop start town traffic so I'm happy."
  6. Hill start comes in handy when going up the ramp to Thunderbird 2
  7. waits to fill in the gaps from gearing commander.com REVS stock 40 MPH -120 mph in top AS MENTIONED IN CHART Gen1 2,152 - 6,456 Gen2 2,185 - 6,555 ZZR Gen1 2,135 - 6,404 ZZR Gen2 2,187 - 6,560 H2 SX 2,599 - 7,796 MY Gen2 2,134 - 6,403 DD3 2,185 - 6,555 So with the same Gen2 gearing the bottom end and mid range is much improved lit will take 1406cc to overhaul a DD3 low down
  8. i recognize them corners now a 50 zone, been down them well into ban territory , ain't we
  9. the testing by Bruce Dunn had ALL the electronics turned off NO LAUNCH control , TC or Quick shifter all done by conventional riding 0-169 IN 0.52 MILES
  10. actually says "riding the Busa is like piloting a hyper speed canoe" not quite as bad
  11. yes slower bikes can be faster in the real world i had better get out and practice
  12. still waiting to compare gear rations of DD3 V GEN2 - not seen any data on that
  13. i'm just pointing out what was printing - no need to shoot the messenger i looked at my vid at Woodbridge dash view and with a shit pull away i was also 16 seconds to 187 on clock in 5th
  14. @JOHN-DYNOSTAR@MikaS "And that, ladies and gents, is the fastest-accelerating stock production bike Bruce has measured in over 30 years of professional performance testing. Faster than any litre sportsbike, either Gen1 or Gen2 Hayabusas, faster than any ZZR1400 and faster than an H2 SX SE. It’s official, kinda: the 2021 Hayabusa is still the boss." 2021 Suzuki Hayabusa Launch Review Welcome, speed freaks (and everyone else) to the UK launch of the 2021 Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa. We’re parked at the far end of the 0.8-mile runway at Sywell Aerodrome in Northamptonshire, with ace performance tester Bruce Dunn and a 2D GPS datalogger (as used in MotoGP). Bruce launches the Suzuki up the runway in a snarling flurry of revs. He crosses the 60mph mark in 2.69 seconds. 2.49 seconds later (5.18 seconds from standstill) he’s doing 100mph. 5.53 seconds after that, 10.71 seconds from standstill, Bruce and the Hayabusa are creasing physics at 150mph. Let that sink in – just over 10 seconds to hit a ton and half. And a mere 16.35 seconds from standstill, Bruce and the Suzuki are doing 169.49mph – in fifth, with one more gear to go. For Bruce, timing is – literally – everything: the end of the runway is approaching at the rate of 76 metres per second. Bruce shuts off and brakes with 300 metres and four seconds of concrete left. His margin for error timing his braking is around half a second. At nearly 170mph that, I would say, takes a fair pair of spuds. The Suzuki’s new Brembo Stylema radial calipers and enlarged 320mm discs plough a concrete furrow as revised 42mm KYB forks and new front Bridgestone B22 eat into the runway. Newly-sophisticated ABS balances-in a bit of rear brake and sets off brake hazard warning lights, in case anything is coming up fast behind (although what Suzuki expect to keep up with an unleashed Hayabusa is moot), as the Hayabusa kills speed like a Hamamatsu-sized anchor. And that, ladies and gents, is the fastest-accelerating stock production bike Bruce has measured in over 30 years of professional performance testing. Faster than any litre sportsbike, either Gen1 or Gen2 Hayabusas, faster than any ZZR1400 and faster than an H2 SX SE. It’s official, kinda: the 2021 Hayabusa is still the boss. Now, more sober readers might wonder what the point of all this speedgasm is – and I can offer no further justification other than it is and always has been a large part of the sales pitch for the Hayabusa, and Suzuki have brought us to a runway as part of the launch so it’s clearly a bit of fun. But, also, it’s a handy way of measuring the effects of the Euro 5 changes to the 2021 Hayabusa, somewhat exhaustively listed and described above. But before we hit the runway, we also take the Hayabusa out for a road ride too. And turns out it’s pretty handy in the real world, too.
  15. actually here is some more facts.. John W may pour scorn its official Bennets says DD3 quicker to a 100 MPH than 2016 ZZR1400 @JOHN-DYNOSTAR DD3 does have some low down grunt - that mild camshaft does help MY Bike - 1 on rear 6th 40 - 100 = 9.21 DD3 = 7.8 sec 2016 ZZR1400 = 8 Sec
  16. i note that the Visordown test it was set to a 4
  17. traction control set to minimal intrusion = 1 anti wheelie = 1 not turned off but set to minimum even so I was not expecting that
  18. The main display says U1 might be clues in there
