What an ass. "Hayabusa" does not mean "widow maker". If I remember correctly it means "peregrine falcon".

The Hayabusa is a falcon - specifically one that preys on black birds. It was Suzukis dig at the CBR1100

I was still receiving all the press kits at Chilton when the Hyabusa was introduced.
Suzuki sent us post cards, once a week for a month or so hinting at then new bike.
I believe the particular falcon it is named after is capable of more than 180 mph flight (diving) and that was a claimed part of the tie in for the name.

When they show the GSX-R going around that left-hander, his knee ain't even close to the ground. They needed better riders on those bikes.   |

True, but it's a whole lot easier to drive fast in a car, than it is to ride a bike at even a moderate pace. It takes 10 times the skill to ride than it does to drive. All you have to do is look at all the idiots in cages drinking coffee, putting on makeup, talking, texting, yelling at their kids, all while crossing over three lanes of traffic to make their exit off the freeway. I was driving on the road at 13 with no prior experience... You think a 13 year-old who's never been on a motorcycle before would make it more than 10 yards? Okay, let's say there's top level racers on the bikes and in the cars. I'd say the bikes take it, depending on the the track. just my $0.02 |

The guys on the bikes are not even in a tuck on the track. They are driving like guys coming home on the freeway.
Also, a Cadillac beating a Porsche???

Love at the end of the clip he states how he claims "the guys are going around the track are having fun going fast, safely." Then he jumps on the Ducati only wearing a T-shirt and rides off into the distance.  |
