Suzuki has just gifted one of their valuable riders with a specialized hyperbike – and the ‘World Endurance Hayabusa’ will be the only one of its kind in the world.*

Earlier this year, the Japanese marque pulled out of MotoGP, stating that sustainability was the focus, though they would still be staying in the motorcycle market.*

This means that Suzuki’s MotoGP test rider and reigning Endurance World Champion (EWC), Sylvain Guintoli, will shortly be completing his time with Suzuki – and considering the sheer grunt had from the man on successes for Suzuki, it’s no wonder the brand is thanking him in the best way they know how; with the 1/1 ‘Yoshimura-Sert-Motul.’

“The throttle response is so linear and power delivery is smooth, it inspires so much confidence to push harder.”

We think he’s pretty happy with the thing; just look at that Cheshire cat grin.*
