Interestingly, the
Kanji symbol on the GSX-1300R's
fairing can be pronounced as either "hayabusa" or "hayato". The name refers to the
Japanese Peregrine Falcon, known to hunt
blackbirds amongst other things. This is obviously a reference to
Honda's
CBR1100XX motorcycle, also known as "The Blackbird" or "
Dos Equis", (reference to the double "X" in its name).
Also (potentially) in the pipeline from Suzuki is the "B-King"; a naked, supercharged version of the Hayabusa. When you're cranking out 250+ bhp, who needs a fairing, right?!
