At one time, amongst the fastest of the international motocycle magazine sets test rider journo's, full of cunning stunts, tomfoolery and lucky escapes from certain death.

I lived in the UK when these guys were current! I had a Honda Blackbird my friends had a ZZR 1100 and Busa. I was at the NEC in Birmingham UK when they launched that TURD brown / gold / shit coloured whatever Busa . And I told the Suzuki people on the stand that.The Busa had 200cc more then the Bird , but the Bird was better built and didn't have cam chain tensioner issues ( in the day I never knew of a Busa that didn't blow up and needed an engine rebuild) FACT ,and they had sub frame issues cracking when people tryed to put luggage on them. Honda could beat ANYBODY if they wanted give the Bird more power / CC s. Tragic they stopped building the Bird and Suz Suckie is still build the Turd.

@@williamjohnson6517 The Bird is still one of my all time favourite bikes, I wish they would make a more modern, powerful larger Bird..

I owne a ZZR 1100 (1998) we are still 21 years together. The old Lady have allways the power as in younger years. :-) Not much modern Bikes will be so fast from 0-100 like this beautifull bike. Only thing's I change is the original windshild to an MRA spoiler shild. And the seat to a seat of top saddlery.

My all time favorite is Hayabusa... Even it proves in the entire Video.. What a elegant design... Its same replica of the falcon...

I would take the blackbird. But there all awesome bikes

Seeing this circa 2001, those stand-up wheelies on the R1 sealed the deal on me getting sportbike fever. Bought a 600cc yamaha that could wheelie, but I was too scared to really go for it.

@boingkster

Ай бұрын

Never been a wheelie fan myself, I'd rather take a series of fast sweepers or brake hard in and accelerate hard out of a tighter corner... but to each their own. I've owned an R1 and enjoyed it, but really like my Bandit 1250 for an everydayer. The CBR600F4i was probably my most fun and practical sportsbike though - lots of revs to play with, plenty of power and comfortable and civil enough to ride anywhere anytime.

It was called Mach2 , but the one year later, they released Mach3 .... replacing the zzr11 with the zx12 , and didn’t even take the R1 , my beloved BB was “dog slow” to the Busa, let alone the ZX12 That left the Busa for dead ....

Ive watched this a 100 times. It's one of my favorite bike videos. I wish I could find these guys or if they have any new stuff..

Maybe the Best video ever on you tube ……great

I just bought a Blackbird and I love it. I'm sure I would love the 'Busa too, I'm just a Honda guy I guess. As far as the speed and rwhp of course the Suzuki will win that. After all, it does have over 160cc more displacement and two more years of development over the CBR. Just as the ZX14R is faster than the 1300cc 'Busa. Now if the 'Busa was 1000cc, came out before the CBR, and had more hp and speed, then I would be more impressed with it and a bit dissapointed with the Honda. That's like saying my buddy's gixxer 750 is faster than his buddy's gixxer 600. Well duh. I like a 'Busa, but for now I'm pretty happy with my Honda and excited to put some miles on it.

yng4evr68 When your talking just a few % here and there on performance difference that most mere mortals can tell very little difference. For more there is more to it than just outright top speed bragging rights. I think the BB is simply a much classier looking bike that the Busa.. build quality is far superior too. That's why I am more than happy with my CBR1100XX Superblackbird. A future classic, no doubt.
