Suzuki Hayabusa Turbo Drag Bike
History; Originally
owned by Suzuki GB and used as a roadtest/demo/development
bike. It was built as you see now in 2002/2003
by Roger Simmons then Chief Technician for Crescent
Suzuki. The bike was featured in issue 127 of
Streetfighters magazine where it was described
as "the trickest Hayabusa you have ever
seen". Roger used it on the road and for
sprints such as Brighton Speed Trials and at
IOM Ramsey where in 2003 it recorded the then
fastest ever 1/8 mile terminal spped of 133mph.
Mileage when built approx 4,000, current mileage
5,127.
CHASSIS; Standard frame and
tank, one off Metmachex swinging arm, "adjust
on bike" ride height adjusters, two piece
alloy chainguard, re-valved re-sprung rear shock,
Trac 5 degree offset billet yokes, internally
shortened re-valved forks, PFM disc and 6 pot
caliper on front (ex BSB), Brembo caliper with
Braking wave disc ( ex GSV GPbike) on rear,
carbon fibre heel plates, Harris rearsets with
removable extra rearsets for drag racing, Scotts
radial fork top steering damper, Modified fairing

Arotek extra long tail unit with detachable
hump, lowered seat pad, standard pillion seat
pad, polished footrests and grab rail are included
should you be able to find anyone to go on the
back !, Billet logo mirror blanks,fluid resevoir
tops and oil filler cap, RC Components Daytona
split rim wheels 6.5" rear 3.5" front,
alloy bar ends, adj height alloy side stand,
one off Renthall dural sprocket, Metzler Racetec
120 front and Shinko Super Soft 190 rear tyres.
Titanium fastners throughout (reputedly £2,500
worth).
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
1300cc std bores, JE forged pistons, Carillo
rods, balanced crank, flowed/ported cyl head,
APE studs/nuts, adj cam sprockets, solid adj
cam chain tensioner, undercut gearbox, MTC lockup
clutch, modded clutch cover with Aeroquip breather,
all built to the highest standards. Originally
running a Mr Turbo Rayjay unit but last year
it was fitted (by Big CC) with an up to date
set up comprising of Garrett GT30/71R race turbo,
Tial wastegate and dump valves, Bosch competition
fuel pump, BRGI billet fuel pressue reg, billet
plenum chamber, CNC block off plates, KN filter,
RC 750 injectors, and all the other necessary
bits inc Aeroquip unions and hosing for all
fuel lines. Billet clutch slave cyl support,
all topped off with more titanium fastners.
All of this makes 280-300 reliable BHP on Big
CCs dyno at only 6psi on regular unleaded pump
petrol, loads of potential to make up to 450
bhp with this set up but you will not need it
! The engine has done less than 1500 miles in
total and under 300 since new turbo fitted.
SPARES; Few spares inc left
hand fairing panel, pillion seat/footrests/grab
rail, assorted sprockets (new), hoses, clutch
clyinder.
ELECTRICS; Full road legal
working lights indicators etc, Power Commander
+ Wide Band unit, MPS air/elec shifter with
built in compressor pump and alloy tank, Dyna
shift light and minder, MR Turbo boost/Dynojet
air-fuel/MRE shifter air pressure gauges + all
std instrumentation.
OTHER STUFF; 5,127 miles,
T&T, Alphadot security. This is a totally
useable street bike that will out-perform ANYTHING
you will ever encounter ! I have competed in
a few Straightliners meetings with it this year
with a best ET of 9.1 and terminal or 161mph,
i'm certain it could go faster with a more competent,
experienced (and younger !) rider.
