Suzuki Hayabusa Recalled Over Major Issue in India highlights

Quick Highlights:

  • Gen 3 Suzuki Hayabusa recalled in India

  • Issue related to front brake lever play

  • Affected units were manufactured between March 2021 and September 2024

Suzuki’s flagship bike, Hayabusa, has been recalled in India. The Hayabusa, now its third generation, has been on sale in India since March 2021 and has sold 1056 units until September 2024.   

It appears that all of the 1056 units which have been sold until September 2024 have been recalled due to an issue related to front brake lever play. The issue has been described as “The front brake lever play increases, in the worst case, the lever contacts with the throttle grip and the braking distance increases.” 

From the way it looks, this is a serious issue as the front brake lever makes contact with the throttle grip and the braking distance increases overtime. For a bike which can reach the 300kmph mark very easily, this issue can be fatal. The older generation of the Hayabusa felt like it could do with an improved braking performance which the company solved with the current generation model by giving it Brembo brakes and increasing the disc diameter.
