The Japanese factories' abandonment of their voluntary 125bhp horsepower limit in the mid-1990s paved the way for a new generation of 'hyper-sports' bikes, the first of which was Honda's CBR1100XX Blackbird, launched in 1996. However, the 178mph Blackbird's reign as world's fastest production motorcycle only lasted until the arrival of Suzuki's Hayabusa in 1999. Boasting 1,300cc to the Honda's 1,100, the Hayabusa aced the Blackbird courtesy of a whopping 150-plus brake horsepower and a top speed of 193mph, at which velocity the speedometer would be registering over 200mph... Despite exploring limits hitherto unknown to production road bikes, the wind-tunnel styled Hayabusa proved as stable at 170mph as it was at 70. However, scare stories in the press about 200mph road-going motorcycles soon caused a rethink at Suzuki, and subsequent models were electronically limited to a top speed of 300km/h (186mph) which, if nothing else, made the early pre-limited examples all the more collectible.

Purchased by Hans circa 2000, this Hayabusa is believed to be a full power model (the speedometer reads to 340km/h or 211mph). The machine has been upgraded with PVM/BBS wheels; PVM brakes; PVM rear brake torque arm, etc. Currently displaying a total of circa 8,200 kilometres on the odometer, this exciting machine is offered with a German Fahrzeugschein and an expired TüV (MoT) certificate and correspondence.
