Description
Suzuki Hayabusa – 1999 Gen 1 - Unrestricted full power
2390 miles – 3846 km – very low miles
3 owners from new, I bought her in 2017 in the UK having spent 2 years hunting for the right Hayabusa. It was intended as a donor vehicle for a Fisher Fury I was building, but plans changed and I sold the Fury in 2022 to someone who already had a fully built Hayabusa (250hp+), so I kept this bike.
I sourced a Power Commander and an upgraded Stainless single exhaust (neither of which have been fitted yet). I also sourced forged conrods (as the plan had been to turbocharge), which are also included, along with a Haynes manual.
The bike when it was nearly new was dropped while stationary on the owner’s driveway, which damaged the RH fairing only. As the owner was a painter and a big fan of SRAD 750s, he sourced a new fairing and painted the bike in the SRAD colours, hence the unique colour scheme, the only Hayabusa I’ve seen in this paint scheme and its been completed to a very high standard.
The engine has been started at least every 2 months, and it has been ridden occasionally on private land to keep everything running. It was gone through thoroughly (injector seals, service parts) when I bought it, and recently it has been gone through again thoroughly, including tidying up some tired wiring, new battery, fuel pump rebuild, etc and is in perfect working order, bar a very minor weep on one of the radiator cap crimps only when the engine is hot.
Also, the tyres are probably 15-20 years old, but the new owner can choose which tyres they prefer, which is why I haven't changed them.
The bike is currently unregistered allowing it to be registered in any country as you wish. It was imported in 2017 (before Brexit, with evidence), and has been stored in dry garages nearby the Nurburgring since then. It has never been on a track or raced or abused at any point in its history. This must be one of the lowest mileage Hayabusa's for sale anywhere, I personally haven't seen any in the last 10 years with less miles in the UK or Europe.
The bike is in as close to as new condition as is possible for a 26 year old bike, it would be ideal either for a collector looking for a low mileage example which will appreciate with time; or for someone building either a racecar or kitcar and looking for a barely-run-in engine.
Viewings available 5 minutes from the Nurburgring.
