Suzuki Hayabusa Akan Dinaik Taraf Dengan Sistem VVT

Dalam usaha memastikan legasi Hayabusa terus berjalan dalam era peraturan emisi yang semakin ketat, Suzuki telah pun memfailkan paten baharu yang merujuk kepada Suzuki Hayabusa akan dinaik taraf dengan sistem ‘variable valve timing’ (VVT).

Penjualan Hayabusa telah pun dihentikan di beberapa pasaran dunia sekitar 2018 sebelum kilang Hamamatsu memperkenalkan generasi terbaru pada 2021 yang tampil dengan enjin lebih bersih dan reka bentuk berbeza. Bagaimanapun, dalam usaha mencapai standard emisi terkini, model 2021 itu datang dengan kuasa yang lebih rendah berbanding generasi sebelumnya.

Enggan senario sama berulang, Suzuki telah memutuskan Hayabusa seterusnya akan dinaik taraf dengan sistem VVT yang bukan sahaja akan meningkatkan kuasa malah turut menawarkan penggunaan bahan api yang lebih jimat dan emisi yang lebih rendah.

Difahamkan, sistem VVT yang akan diguna pakai Suzuki mirip dengan teknologi yang diterapkan masa kini pada motosikal dan kereta iaitu dengan melambatkan masa ‘intake cam’ pada kelajuan rendah sekaligus mengurangkan jumlah injap bertindih.

Untuk rekod, injap bertindih bermanfaat bagi mengisi silinder dengan intake baharu pada RPM tinggi namun pada RPM rendah, senario itu menyebabkan campuran tidak terbakar memasuki ekzos lalu mencemarkan ‘catalytic converter’. Keadaan itu boleh memberi kesan pada kecekapan bahan api dan meningkatkan emisi.

Penerapan sistem VVT baharu ini akan memastikan penjualan Hayabusa akan terus dibenarkan terutamanya di beberapa negara Eropah dan Amerika Syarikat yang dijangka akan memperkenalkan peraturan emisi lebih ketat dalam masa terdekat.

Ketika ini, penjualan GSX-R1000, GSX-R750 dan GSX-R600 telah pun dilarang kerana gagal mencapai sasaran emisi Euro 5.

Apa yang pasti sistem VVT pada Hayabusa bukan sahaja membolehkan model itu kekal relevan untuk pasaran dunia masa kini malah memastikan enjin empat silinder 1,340cc itu kekal menghasilkan output yang tinggi setaraf namanya.

World’s First Titanium-Built, Hayabusa-Powered Motorcycle Nearing Completion

In a groundbreaking development, the world’s first titanium-built motorcycle is nearing completion, leaving motorcycle enthusiasts in awe.

This remarkable project features a Suzuki Hayabusa engine encased in a breathtaking titanium frame, swingarm, exhaust, subframe, and bodywork.
the project is spearheaded by New Jersey custom builder W. Robert Ransom,

Titanium, known for its lightweight and robust properties, makes it an ideal material for various applications. Its strength surpasses that of aluminum while weighing only 60% more. Additionally, when exposed to high temperatures, titanium oxidises into captivating, permanent colors, making it highly desirable for motorcycle exhausts.

However, the adoption of titanium in motorcycle construction has been limited due to its high cost and challenging workability. The metal’s reactivity at elevated temperatures poses difficulties during welding, as it readily forms brittle compounds when exposed to ambient air. Moreover, titanium’s natural springiness in sheet form requires extra effort to shape it into intricate designs necessary for motorcycle bodywork.

Despite these challenges, New Jersey custom builder W. Robert Ransom, commissioned by a customer named Mohammed, undertook the ambitious task of creating an all-titanium motorcycle. Ransom aimed to showcase unparalleled artistry and craftsmanship in the motorcycle industry.

The heart of this groundbreaking motorcycle is a modified second-generation Suzuki Hayabusa engine, boasting around 200 horsepower. Nearly all components, including the stunningly curved tubular frame and rigid swingarm inspired by MotoGP designs, are meticulously crafted from titanium. The swingarm, slightly extended and designed for optimum cornering performance, is also constructed with curvaceous titanium tubing.

Among the remarkable features of this motorcycle is the custom 4-into-2-into-1-into-2 titanium exhaust system. With over 130 sections on the header pipes alone, this exhaust setup, along with its ram’s horn headers and teardrop-shaped under-seat cans, is an undeniable standout element.

TTS Performance X Kardesign Perkenalkan SuperBusa – 372HP, 250Nm

Suzuki telah pun memperkenalkan Hayabusa generasi ketiga tahun lalu yang hadir dengan pelbagai naik taraf terkini termasuk reka bentuk berbeza.

Bagaimanapun, rata-rata peminat Busa berpendapat generasi ketiga itu “terlalu selamat” dan tidak lagi gila seperti model terdahulu.

Kami sendiri sukar mempercayai dakwaan itu kerana selepas menguji kemampun Suzuki Hayabusa 2021 yang ditawarkan Suzuki Malaysia, kami mendapati Hayabusa generasi terbaru itu masih lagi mengekalkan DNA sama.

Bagi yang mengikuti perkembangan Hayabusa, pastinya pernah dengar nama TTS Performance, sebuah syarikat yang berpangkalan di UK.

TTS Performance sudah sinonim dengan Hayabusa apabila berpengalaman menghasilkan Busa versi ‘supercharge’ lebih 20 tahun.

TTS Performance dalam satu projek terbaru telah menjalinkan kerjasama dengan Kardesign bagi membangunkan jentera ‘supercharge’ terbaru dengan menggunakan Suzuki Hayabusa generasi terkini yang dilancarkan tahun lalu.

Hasil dari kerjasama itu, TTS Performance X Kardesign memperkenalkan SuperBusa.

Menurut TTS Performance, SuperBusa itu menawarkan 372hp dan 250Nm! Kuasa tersebut dicapai dengan menyumbat enjin ‘supercharge’ Rotrex C30-94.

Menariknya, SuperBusa juga tampil dengan ‘winglet’, komponen yang kini cukup popular dikalangan jentera ‘superbike’ antaranya Ducati Panigale V4 S dan BMW S 1000 RR.

Bagi yang berminat, TTS Performance akan menghasilkan 40 unit SuperBusa – mengikut tempahan – dan ditawarkan pada harga GBP45,999 (RM243k).

Suzuki Hayabusa Now Comes In Pearl Brilliant White For 2022

The Hamamatsu Factory has just added a new colourway for the 2022 Suzuki Hayabusa.

The iconic sports bike is now available in pearl brilliant white with metallic matt stellar blue accents and chrome trim.

According to Suzuki, the new paint job now joins the existing black and range, and matt silver with red colour trim its global launch.

The all-new ‘Busa has also landed in Malaysia for a price of RM111,200.

Patents for New Suzuki Hayabusa Appears Online

Another patent for the new Suzuki Hayabusa was leaked online.
It shows an engine similar to the old model, but rumors say it will get a capacity boost.
The new bike may be introduced as a 2021 model.

Many fans of the Suzuki Hayabusa almost cried when the factory announced that they’ve stopped production of the model.

But every cloud has a silver lining and many speculated that Suzuki will debut a new Hayabusa soon. It sure seems to be headed in that direction the patents have been leaked online.

The picture shows the second patent to surface.

It shows that the bike will retain the twin aluminium spar frame, albeit one which looks smaller and lighter than its predecessor.

The engine looks identical to the old 1340cc inline-Four but is rumored to receive a capacity boost and reworked cylinder head. The bottom end of the engine looks the same – possibly retained from the old bike. The drawings also revealed a new emission-friendly exhaust system.

But BikeSocial pointed out that an earlier patent described an electronically-controlled semi-automatic gearbox while this second patent mentions a clutch lever operated manual transmission, instead. Does that mean two versions of the future Hayabusa? As in one with a semi-auto and another with a manual gearbox?

The question of how the bike will look like hasn’t been answered yet. Maybe we could see the prototype later, but it should debut as a 2021 model.

Reports of Suzuki Hayabusa Death Greatly Exaggerated?

The internet went crazy when with the news of the “death” of the Suzuki Hayabusa.
The manufacturer is only stopping production of the Euro4-compliant ‘Busa.
It did not mean there is no more of the model in the future.

The internet went crazy last week with the “death” of the Suzuki Hayabusa. We decided to sit out the storm and see what actually happened.

Well, Suzuki Motor of America has issued a press release in the matter. “The news of my death has been greatly exaggerated,” said Mark Twain.

This was what they said:

“Suzuki Motor of America, Inc. (SMAI) has confirmed that U.S. market production of the Hayabusa sport motorcycle continues uninterrupted,”

“Production of the European-specification Hayabusa ceases due to Euro4 emission regulations. This situation, and resulting media reports, may have caused confusion and misunderstand among U.S. consumers, media, and dealers.”

It all started when Suzuki Japan’s website announced that they will cease production of the bike. Certain publications jumped on it, by assuming the worse. The “obituary” had circulated the globe about a kabizillion times before considering the backdrop.

The manufacturer is merely stopping production of the Euro4-compliant Hayabusa meant for the European market.

It’s not bad news at all, since they will definitely debut a Euro5-complaint ‘Busa for 2020. Some say it will feature turbocharging, 1440cc engine, IMU, active suspension, etc. and more rumours.
