Suzuki Hayabusa vs BMW R 1250 R Comparison

Priced at ₹ 16.40 lakh (Ex-showroom), the Suzuki Hayabusa offers superb value. It's got crackling performance, a sophisticated electronics suite, which makes it safe and easy to enjoy. The only downside is that the huge 1,340 cc engine generates a lot of heat on a hot day, which can be quite bothersome, and despite the slip-and-assist clutch, the lever feels heavy and not ideal, if you're stuck in bumper to bumper traffic.

The BMW R 1250 R is a naked roadster, which sits right atop BMW's naked motorcycle range and it replaced the R 1200 R in India when it was launched in 2019. It get the new 1,254 cc boxer-twin engine which also does duty on the BMW R 1250 GS. The engine pumps out 134 bhp at 7,750 rpm and has peak torque output of 143 Nm at 6,250 rpm. Plus, the motorcycle is equipped with a lot of advanced electronics. But all these come with a hefty price tag.
