VOLUME 58 ISSUE 6 FEBRUARY 9, 2021 P55
Available in three color options—
Glass Sparkle Black/Candy Burnt
gold, Metallic Matte Sword silver/Can-
dy Daring red and Pearl Brilliant white/
Metallic Matte Stellar blue—the new
Hayabusa uses a revised version of
the 2008 model's 1340cc inline four-
cylinder powerplant, with 187 horse-
power registered at 9750 rpm, and a
stout 110 lb-ft of torque at 7000 rpm.
Interestingly, that's less than the 2008
model, which produced 194 hp/114
lb-ft, however, that model wasn't slung
with all the emissions laws the 2022
'Busa must abide by to get under the
Euro 5 threshold.
Everything in the DOHC cam motor
has come under the microscope—
cams, valves, springs, cylinder
head, rods, crank, block, clutch
and gearbox—it's all shaved,
lighted or redesigned for the third
edition of the 'Busa.
The chassis is similar to what
it was before in the twin-spar
aluminum frame with reworked,
fully adjustable KYB suspension,
new wheels wrapped in Bridgestone
S22 rubber and new Brembo Stylema
brake calipers in the same vein as the
Ducati Panigale V4 S.
HAYABUSA
BACK!
For the 2022
model year, the
Haybusa will
be available
in three color
options.
