I dont know how to do a motorcycle review, since this is my first time am writing a review pardon me for mistakes I make.
It was almost 8 to 10 years ago where I first saw Hayabusa and R1 standing next to each other in an auto show at palace ground(Bangalore). Since then I have been drooling, stalking and collecting many photos of these bikes. Now finally decided on buying busa.
Reasons:
Since I dont have any other superbike experience I will be comparing with R15 in all reference.:rolleyes:
Now lets come to bike, I got delivery 1 week ago and since then I have driven for almost 450 KMS. So far its awesome to drive in highway as well as city limit except in bumper to to bumper traffic because of heat it will give. Showroom guy said heat will reduce after some more kms. It takes potholes very decently compared to R15 as I dont know how other superbikes react.
So far I have tried till 160 kmph in 3rd gear, after that I didnt had the guts to go further speed coz I was scared of trucks and other vehicles moreover I didnt had proper riding gear. And I havent seen ABS in working as am going at low speed in slippery road. And couldnt complain about breaking because its so efficient.
Show room people were extremely helpful, I bought it from Suzuki showroom in rajajinagar (Dr.Rajkumar road). I am still in contact with one guy (Shivanand), he told me to contact if any query 24*7. So am calling every now and then and he is answering all my question patiently.
He said there is no run-in period for Hayabusa and I can ride in any rainy condition if I take care of slippery surface, can someone can correct if its wrong?
So far am using speed 97 grade petrol. Can I use octane boosters in case?
Can some one guide me for riding gear? So far I have bought AGV helmet and planning to buy Alpinestar all weather jacket.
i will be uploading few pics as i dont have DSLR currently with me so photo quality may be shady since these pics are from phone.

Reasons:
- I read review saying that R1 has more aggressive seating position and more of track oriented bike where as hayabusa is a sports tourer.
- Hayabusa looks so big, bulky n sexy(in my opinion, of course).:chuncky:
- Stock exhaust sound is good than r1.
- Call me cheap, it gives more mileage.
- Last but not least, ITS HAYABUSA.
