Awesome, looking forward to this.

Says something about it's popularity that its EURO 5 compliant

[bogie]

Cool...looking forward to see it

[podman]

Fab...that new engine in a super naked could me right up my tree!

Has to be packing 250BHP now do we reckon?

[Rubin215 QFSM]

Nice to see that it's still pig-ugly!

I’ll be surprised if it’s much above 200hp

I would love to see a full revolution of the Hayabusa, but I suspect this is more evolution of the model, so similar engine and same chassis, but with a few more rider aids and ~200bhp

Fingers crossed for a 250bhp monster though.

[castex]

Surely it has to be that bit more?

[Don Roque]

Looking forward to seeing this.

If they want to market it as a Fast Bike then surely for bragging rights it's got to have a little help with pushing air into the motor...?

Looking forward to this one.

Not seeing a boost gauge on the clocks, think forced induction is off the table.

[D1on]

Looking forward to this!

[lukeyman]

I hope it's got cornering ABS.

I might be missing the point, but all bikes sold in the EU after Jan 2021 have to be Euro 5 compliant. Despite Brexit all our emissions regs are the same as Europe's.

I think the point is that lots of manufacturers have dropped models because its not worthwhile getting them through Euro5 while Suzuki think it is worthwhile to develop the 'busa and get it through.

The ZZR1400 has been chopped for example.

[TommyBuoy]

Will be interesting...I'm going to guess 220bhp and a very long gear...

Looks good I think. Still obviously a ‘busa but looks sharper.

A few youtube clips I just saw seem to state 205bhp and 1400cc, but absolutely not substantiated either way.

If true I'd have expected more as well, but ultimately we know it makes sweet FA difference, perhaps Suzuki know their consumers are equally well informed?

Looking forward to seeing it. I've always had a secret desire to don urban camo trousers and ride a 'Busa.

RF900, MR2 Spyder like vent strakes in the fairing in a different colour aren't doing it for me at the moment.
