Suzuki are gearing up to celebrate 25 years of their legendary Hayabusa at Motorcycle Live, taking place November 16-24 at Birmingham’s NEC.  

The Japanese manufacturer will roll out a dedicated display area showcasing the evolution of the iconic hyperbike, featuring the original 1999 model, the second generation launched in 2008, and the anniversary edition launched in 2021. 

With its road going legacy covered, Suzuki are also turning the spotlight to the custom scene that has sprung up around the ‘Busa – displaying an array of modified show bikes, drag racers and top-speed contenders.

Also included in the exhibition will be a Hayabusa powered Radical SR3, nodding to the influence the engine has had in the four wheeled world. 

Owners can get involved by sending in their own Hayabusa photos for a massive feature. Visit hayabusa-anniversary.suzuki.co.uk now to submit your images.

MCN Content Writer, dog dad and motorcycle adventurer - After gaining experience in various technical roles within the motorcycle trade, I joined Motorcycle News as a Content Writer in 2024. My passion for motorcycles began early, growing up in a bike-enthusiast family. My youth was spent riding trails, motocross, and briefly road racing. At 19, after earning my A2 license, I discovered a love for touring, completing the NC500 in Scotland shortly after. Driven by a thirst for adventure, I undertook a ride from the UK to Azerbaijan and back, traversing Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa. More recently, I undertook a 20,000km journey from the UK to South Africa along Africa’s west coast.
