What is better a Kawasaki Ninja or a Suzuki Hayabusa?

I think they both look pretty naff. but the suzuki is faster than the kwak. although a better rider on the kwak will run circles round you!. I like Kawasaki but i feel they have stopped producing anything that i would concider buying.

the hayabusa from suzuki has been the faster bike prior to 2008, this years data is still out, looks sharper also.

There's no question in my mind, the 'Busa is prettier. But these two bikes are for completely different purposes. NOBODY would choose between these two models based just on looks. The Ninja is a good all-around bike. It's not even really a sportbike, it's a 'sporty' bike, good-handling, relatively comfortable, good for riding for fun, touring, or just general transportation. Good bike for a beginner. You won't grow out of it too quickly. The Hayabusa is the fastest production motorcycle ever produced. It is more a -weapon- than a motorcycle. 'Hayabusa' is Japanese for 'widow-maker'. It is designed mostly for bragging rights. For all that power you pay a price in comfort, handling, weight and manueverablilty. If it's your first bike, make sure you have your life insurance paid up.

THE BUSA ALL THE WAY! I BELIEVE THE 99 BUSA WAS THE FASTEST PRODUCTION BIKE RELEASED IN THE STATES UNGOVERNED....TOOOOO FAST FOR MOST!

If you are old enough to ride either of these bikes, you are old enough not to ask stupid questions

Hayabusa is more eye catching but as awesome as they are I think they look a bit too covered up. Thank goodness Suzuki agreed with me on that and made the B-King http://www.globalsuzuki.com/motorcycle/moto/street/gsx1300bk/imgs/img-11.jpg

First off all everyone answering your question is mentally retarded. The Hayabusa is not the fastest production motorcycle, the MV Agusta 1078 is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MV_Agusta_F4_series#F4_R_312 And the Kawasaki Ninja is a track bike. The Hayabusa is not raced in AMA or World Superbike because of it's fat weight and 1300cc engine size, so it's more of a bike just to ride around on that's sporty, the ninja is the precision track bike that will carve corners. If you want the fastest bike and looks though, the MV Agusta 1078 will beat both of those hands down, just look at the specs and look at the bike's looks, it's Italian like Ferrari or Ducati so you know it's good. Ferrari has won the most races in Formula One and Ducati the most Superbike races. MV Agusta has tons of titles and their bikes are carbon fiber and aluminum alloy with titanium valves, unlike those plastic bikes you mentioned. Google the MV Agusta F4 CC or the Ducati Desmosedici RR and both those bikes make the two you mention look like pocket bikes. Which one looks better?

do you even know how to ride. what about the over ten thousand dollars you will need to buy one.

It seems to me you have very limited experience (riding motorcycles) to be asking this question. My opinion or the opinion of someone else based around the looks of a bike for you to purchase is not a very good starting point. Both of these bikes are excellent they both have good looks and power but if I was to make a choice it would come down to handling braking and response comfort maintenance, servicing costs, repair costs, and then looks. Did you notice looks is last on my list! and I wouldn't be asking someone else to make my choice for me. Riding motorcycles is fun but also serious if you want to do it for many years you need to learn how to do it safely with out killing yourself or others and on both the bikes you are considering you can easily kill yourself it's just a matter of twisting the grip and in an instant you can launch yourself into oblivion like so many other novices have done in the past! Please think carefully and consider doing advanced riding courses or even getting much more experience before you jump on the big bikes try some mid range super sports they can do the damage to(220k's or 170mph) but art least you can get some experience to"feel" the power in safer increments before you get on a rocket ship that can rip the bars right out of your hands on acceleration including a top speed of over 240K's or 180 mph Think carefully
