Locally assembled Suzuki Hayabusa priced at Rs. 13.57 lakh

Suzuki has announced that it has started assembling the Hayabusa superbike in India.

CKD kits of the Hayabusa will be imported and assembled at the same factory in Gurgaon where the entire Suzuki India two-wheeler line-up is manufactured. The specifications of the motorcycle will remain the same as the CBU (completely built up) model, which has been imported from Japan all these years.

The Suzuki Hayabusa is powered by a 1,340cc, liquid-cooled, 4-cylinder, 4-stroke engine mated to a 6-speed transmission. It has disc brakes all-round (twin front discs + a single rear disc) with ABS and rides on 17-inch wheels.

Locally assembled vehicles attract less duty when compared to direct imports. This step to start assembly of the Hayabusa from CKD kits has brought the bike's price down from Rs. 16 lakh (approximately) to Rs. 13,57,150 (ex-showroom, Delhi).
