Written on November 26, 2008 – 11:14 am | by BikersUnite
Suzuki will launch it’s flagship model motorcycles, the GSX1300R Hayabusa and M1800R Intruder later today at Taj hotel in New Delhi.
Expected to be launched at a premium over the currently available Yamaha R1 at Rs 12.5 lakhs ex-showroom, the bikes will be available from select showrooms in 6-7 cities initially.

Initially only two colors will be launches in the Hayabusa and Intruder. Hayabusa will be available in Black & in Solid Black/Metallic Majestic Gold (FGG) which Intruder will be launched in Red and Black. There is a possibility that the Hayabusa to be sold in India will be a restricted model incapable of hitting speeds over 180kmph.
More details will be updated later today.
Hayabusa 1300 Features:
* 1340cm3 in-line 4-cylinder fuel-injected liquid-cooled DOHC engine built to deliver a broad wave of torque for effortless acceleration while reducing emissions.photo 1
* Hard, smooth chrome-nitride Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating on the upper compression and oil control piston rings reduces friction while improving cylinder sealing.photo 2
* Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM) cylinder plating improves heat transfer, durability and ring seal.photo 3
* U-shaped cutouts in the cylinder-bore sides allow air below descending pistons to escape to adjacent cylinders to reduce internal pumping pressure and mechanical power losses.
* Lightweight titanium valves allow use of lighter valve springs and higher lift while maintaining accurate valve control. Iridium spark plugs produce more complete combustion.photo 4 photo 5
* Curved radiator with a compact, dense-core design and engine-management-computer-controlled two ring-type electric fans mounted on the rear of the radiator, increasing the control accuracy and keeping engine temperature stable.photo 6
* Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) serves as back-torque-limiting system for smoother downshifts and also contributes to a lighter clutch pull.
* Optimized 6-speed transmission; oil spray to the 4th, 5th and 6th gears reduce wear and mechanical noise during highway cruising.
* Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection results in improved power delivery, a more linear response, better mileage and less emissions. This system uses engine-computer-operated secondary valves to maintain optimum intake-air velocity for maximum combustion efficiency.photo 7
* Two 12-hole fine-spray injectors on each throttle body improve fuel atomization for better combustion efficiency and while reducing fuel consumption.
* Idle Speed Control (ISC) system improves cold starting and helps maintain stable engine idle under various conditions.
* Suzuki Pulsed-secondary AIR-injection (PAIR) system ignites unburned hydrocarbons and reduces carbon monoxide emissions.
* Large-volume catalyzer further reduces hydrocarbon, carbon-monoxide and nitrogen oxide emissions to help meet tough Euro 3 and TIER 2 emissions regulations standards.
* Dual large-volume triangulated and tapered mufflers, shaped for increased banking angle and cornering clearance, enhance power and reduce noise.photo 8
* Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) enables the rider to choose from three different engine power characteristics according to personal tastes and riding conditions. It offers enjoyment of top performance in a wide range of riding situations.photo 9 photo 10
* Advanced, wind-tunnel-refined aerodynamics offering superb wind protection both for normal and completely tucked-in seating positions.
* Twin-spar aluminum-alloy frame built with castings and extrusions. The torsional rigidity of the aluminum-alloy rectangular-cross-section swingarm is increased by 10 percents.
* Rear subframe made of rectangular steel tubing for increased weight carrying capacity.
* Inverted cartridge front forks featuring Diamond-Like Coating (DLC) surface treatment to reduce stiction and improve reaction to small surface irregularities.photo 11
* The front forks and the single rear shock absorber both have fully adjustable spring preload, compression and rebound damping.
* 3-spoke cast-aluminum-alloy wheels shod with 120/70ZR17M/C (58W) front and 190/50ZR17M/C (73W) rear radial tires.
* 310mm (12.2-inch) dual-floating-disc front brakes with efficient, race-proven aluminum-piston, radial-mount brake calipers, and 260mm (10.2-inch) single-disc rear brake with single-piston brake caliper.photo 12 photo 13 photo 14
* Quality detail finishes – passenger footpeg brackets, muffler hangers, footpeg/control brackets – evoking the fine art of feudal Japanese armor, Yoroi-Kabuto.
* Standard-equipment steering damper.photo 15
* Integrated front turn signals form the outer edges of the ram-air-intake scoop.
* Vertically stacked headlight featuring a projector high beam and a halogen-bulb multi-reflector low beam.photo 16
* Unique tailsection featuring streamlined bulges carrying integrated rear turn signals and shaped with jet-engine motif.
* Bright, durable LED taillight, with clear inner lens and red outer lens.photo 17
* Four analog gauges including step-motor-driven tachometer and speedometer. Round LCD panel includes clock, gear position indicator, S-DMS map indicator, odometer and dual trip meters. Engine-rpm indicator, programmable to blink or stay on between 4,000 and 11,500 rpm.photo 18
* Silver metallic trim around the analog gauges and LCD panel evoking American GT muscle-car image.
