when i had my Opel manta i fitted a straight through pipe with 1 end can 35 years ago, i turned the ignition OFF and ON to make huge back fire around Leeds City centre on crisp winters night.
it turned the oval silencer into more of a round shape

Was just gunna say that - sounds good apart from all that popping which make it sound like poor programming ; stopping the spark but not the fuel whilst shifting, dumping unspent fuel into the exhaust, then igniting it all on the next exhaust flame front. Great for pipe life.
mine would very occasionally back fire , and i like that
-
experience the sound with quick shifter up/down - racing exhaust

Misuse of the phrase but maybe that's just us fatties Mark. Round my way, if someone makes hotcakes there's none left not half of them.
Remember that busa owners have been waiting for 13 years for a new model to replace the dog's dinner they made of replacing the one launched 9 years before that
Selling half the piddling allocation is not a success story when you've a 22 year market to sell into.
It's a fact Vegan hot cakes are way more healthy than dairy/egg based but that's another thread (Medul dates and walnuts no raw sugar )
True they may have allocated only 50 and UKB owners are queuing around the block
A yank off HAyabusa Facebook asked me if allocation was 396

Was interesting up to the market pish. Yes, everyone buys a busa for it's mid range, it's all everyone talks about down the pub. Yep, that's the original design influence of the fastest predatory bird in the world being adhered to. Yes, we had to make it more reliable because those doing 250,000 (or 100,000 on here) are always breaking down.
Rubbish. They made another arse of it. Fridge-handled buggeration.
Selling like proverbial hot cakes apparently

Who's buying them all then ? - I mean this is a Busa forum and no one here's owned up to being on the list
( I'll bet John's secretly buying them all for his Kawasaki fwiends now they can't get new ZX's - he did mention a group buy)

its a secret club as BHM mentioned...

Where on earth did he get the mpg figures from??? 130 to a gen 2 tank ???
Razzes every where in 2nd and 3rd

That's true, but what about the mpg figure? Will that be improved?
you would have thought so with a remap
i'm waiting for you to buy one, buy the exhaust and take to Malton
apparently 50% of all allocation sold in the 1st 3 week
and the Suzuki bod said there may be no demo bikes as all will be sold
-
Sorry no subtitles MikaS
see Suzuki Technical Director comments at 14:30 mins - seat of the pants a better bike
-
So DD3 makes 4.2 more HP than Gen2 with same single sided exhaust and presumably without Mapping
that don't tally with Suzuki which says DD3 has less power then GEN2 in stock form
DD3 big torque gain , but only HP improvement at top end only , but don't rev out
here is the dyno
Gen3 makes more power than Gen2

Had my call from Laguna today
, funnily whenever I had been there in the past to buy a Busa the sales team just blanked me as though I was keeping out of the rain.
Guy says first shipment (200 ish) all sold, although I suspect a certain amount of 'back-handers' may well make one pop-up as if by magic
BHM (might give Robinsons a call tomorrow)
Maidstone don't like folks from Chatham
i think HMP Maidstone is full of them

saw this today ;
Hi everyone, I was told today by a Sales person at my local dealer that there will only be 135 Gen 3 Hayabusa’s allocated to the UK and they’ve all been sold including any demo bikes !!! Anybody else had that message ??
that's why they call it a 2022 model anybody from here will have to wait till next winter

If that's all it is, then those flipping tuners have been ripping us off all this time...where's that Sean geezer...I need a word!

All from an engine that's almost the same as a gen 2...how do they do it!!!
Must be them fangled new injectors spray pattern deflection plates, reshaped combustion chambers, mild cam with more lift, smaller throttle bodies with increased Airbox volume , lighter internals

Where did i hear that H2R has recommended hours before replacing the engine internals, ???
One of our streetman drag racers used a H2 , he had long swingarm etc , i think he managed a season or two before the engine failed, now he has B-king with turbo
I think they gave periodic service for H2R in hours cant remember might be 8 or 16 hours
Maybe the 2 Kawasaki trolls on here can answer

I really hope Suzuki are not naive enough to hope this will save them and promote sales of their other bikes
it really is a paired down range
there is a nice modern H2 in John's dyno room it did have me thinking

so.... dont hold your breath
Maybe UK have more than USA at moment , i think because Final GEN2s are still in the showrooms

Just out of idle curiosity, what price are they offering? Does that suggest takeup is at best, disappointing?
PS right price for a bog standard, sign me up
according to Canada they have all sold their initial Tranche and that is 2
Basically i think countries have been allocated a small qty of demos
USA get their bulk from June onwards

Madmattt, BHM
a pair of dead paddling ducks

No doubt in the next few weeks words would be dubbed over this old gem
Gen3 will make 200hp at the wheels with exhaust and flash
-
yeah so its INDIA so do they get the fast ones without Euro5

yeahh of course, but its awesome for highways or specially for racetracks where we can unleash this bike, speed limit for Indian roads is max. 80kmph"why do people always assume american ?his mate has it right thoughStill an ugly bike.Why the USA cos he is a fat fecker
-
i thought at first it was BHM on his inaugural test ride, you know how them boys from Gravesend holler ..... but realised it was in the USA
-
they call them Squids in the USA , and that fat boy is a squid who cant ride the bike can't even rev the fecking bike
he needs to go on the MARTIN diet (trademarked)
1st job is to get a long pointy bar and break out the Catalyser
there is one important note he has got his facemask on - so the world is safe
Awaits the first proper road test
in Gen 3 Hayabusa (2021 - onwards
Posted
No doubt we should see a raft of road tests soon
Outgoing ZZR1400 V Gen2 v Gen3.gif ":rolleyes:")
MCN test should be out soon at Bruntingthorpe and Chris Moore will put the 1st Gen3 through the tuning route soon
