Suzuki GSX 1300 R Hayabusa 2023

The Hayabusa is an absolute legend, the first production motorbike to run at over 300 km/h cannot be dismissed as a minor matter. With the new Busa, however, Suzuki has recognised the signs of the times. The current model, with its extensive electronic equipment including cruise control as standard, is an excellent hyper-tourer. The ergonomics are still sport-oriented, but the rider sits well integrated in the machine and thus also enjoys good wind protection. The brakes are stable, the handling is fine and the chassis is wonderfully stable and mature. The icing on the cake is, of course, the huge 1340 cubic in-line four-cylinder engine, which impresses with its 190 hp alone. Even better, however, is the maximum torque of 150 Newton metres, which is felt to be available from idle speed. In terms of sovereignty, this engine is hard to beat!

The standard version of the Ninja 1100SX also benefits from the most important upgrades for 2025: the more practical engine, the revised traction control and the changed gear ratio make the Ninja fit for the future. Minor weaknesses such as the high fuel consumption and low payload diminish the overall impression somewhat. Yet the Ninja 1100SX SE remains an excellent sporting motorcycle for riders looking for comfort and dynamics in equal measure.
