The Suzuki Hayabusa price in India now stands at ₹18.06 lakh ex-showroom (Delhi), up from ₹16.90 lakh, after the GST 2.0 update for big-capacity motorcycles.
What’s changed
- The revised sticker is ₹18,06,107, which is ₹1,16,107 more than before; there are no mechanical updates tied to this revision.
- The adjustment stems from GST 2.0 rules for bikes above 350cc, which have prompted price resets across the premium end of the market.
Old vs new price
| Item | Previous price (Delhi) | New price (Delhi) | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Suzuki Hayabusa (ex-showroom) | ₹16,90,000 | ₹18,06,107 | +₹1,16,107 |
- Normalized, the increase works out to roughly 6.9 percent.
- The effective change aligns with late-September implementation timelines across large-capacity models.
GST 2.0 at a glance
- Up to 350cc: GST goes from 28% to 18%, so mass market offerings get cheaper.
- Above 350cc: GST goes from 28% to 40%, so premium models like the Hayabusa go into a higher tax bracket.
The motorcycle, unchanged
- Powertrain: 1,340cc inline-four tuned for mid and top end; OBD-2B compliant.
- Electronics: Multiple ride modes, traction control, cruise control and bi-directional quickshifter remain standard.
- Everyday usability: Approx. 266 kg kerb weight, 20 litre tank and 800 mm seat height for long distance comfort.
Market picture
- FY2025 was a milestone year with 511 units sold, the highest 12 month sales for the model in India.
- The model had around 57% market share in the 1,000-1,600cc segment, despite price fluctuations.
What this means for buyers
- In the short term, the higher price might make some buyers pause or rework their budgets as on-road costs go up.
- But the Hayabusa still undercuts many litre class superbikes on entry price and offers a rare combination of speed, comfort and real world usability.
Competitor context
- Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R: Around ₹20.79 lakh ex-showroom, still above the Hayabusa.
- BMW S 1000 RR: Starts higher still, given its superbike brief and equipment.
- Within Suzuki’s range, models like the GSX-8R and V-Strom 800 DE have also gone up post–GST 2.0, so it’s a brand wide recalibration.

Buyer takeaway
- Despite the increase, the Hayabusa still holds value in the hyper-sport/superbike crossover and is a good option for riders who want high performance without giving up long distance comfort.
Closing
With the ex-showroom price now at ₹18.06 lakh under GST 2.0, the Hayabusa is still worth considering for enthusiasts who want a fast, comfortable bike that still makes sense against many litre class rivals.
