The legend lives on:
The new 2008 Hayabusa is hotter than ever. The new Hayabusa's engine is thoroughly updated for more power and an improved power-to-weight ratio, which you'll experience as an even greater rush of acceleration. Its refined chassis and suspension help provide crisper handling. And its striking new fairing offers sleeker aerodynamics. The original Hayabusa was the best. With the 2008 Hayabusa, you're looking at better than the best.
History:-
The fastest production motorcycle ever built.
The name Hayabusa translates directly from the Japanese for Peregrine Falcon, the bird capable of achieving speeds over 200 mph – and predator of (perhaps not coincidently) the common blackbird. When introduced in 1999, it overtook the Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird as the fastest production motorcycle. The first generation of the Hayabusa was called the GSX1300R and was powered by a 1299 cc inline-4 liquid-cooled engine. It remained relatively unchanged up through the 2007 model year.
2008 Hayabusa :-
Suzuki have dropped the GSX1300R designation in some counties and simply called the motorcycle the Hayabusa. The engine size was increased to 1340 cc with the compression ratio increasing to 12.5:1. A 3% increase in displacement has 12% increase in power at 200bhp thanks to lots of other tweaks here and there. Fuel is now fed through a pair of new 44 mm Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) throttle bodies. The Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS), a technology introduced on the GSX-R line of motorcycles, provides three options of power delivery for a range of touring to wide open high performance. The 32 bit microprocessor is twice as compared to the old one. Some of the more notable features include a new 4-2-1-2 exhaust system meets Euro 3 and Tier 2 emission regulations, a slipper clutch, and all new aggressive aerodynamic fairing design with low drag coefficient. Design changes include a wider fairing to cover the rider's body and a taller windscreen so that the wind flows above and around the rider's helmet. The tail signals have been moved below the hump.

The new busa has some fantastic specifications and is an extremely good bike, however I would find it hard to not go with a Kawasaki Ninja ZX14 given the choice.
