Yes, we love light bikes. They're more maneuverable, easier to park, and just feel more alive. But a gifted rider can make even the portliest pig dance, or in this case, a 197-HP Suzuki Hayabusa that comes in at a wet weight of 592 pounds. Skills, this guy has them.
The GSX1300R may be a rolling testament to power over self-preservation, but watching this guy twist and turn through a compact gymkhana in Japan is more proof that a linebacker-and-a-half worth of weight and a 58.5-inch wheelbase are no match for raw talent. Bonus points for a properly ridiculous soundtrack.
