The fuel tank

STAGE 01

Fuel tank × 1

Fuel cap outer × 1

Fuel cap inner × 1

2.3 × 5mm screws × 3

(1 spare)

Tools

Phillips screwdriver (PH 1)

Hold the top of the fuel tank upside down, and place the

fuel cap inner over the circled holes on the inside of it.

Your parts

The fuel tank is positioned towards

the front of the frame, which improves

the overall weight distribution of the

bike. Placing the tank near the front

positions it over the centre of gravity,

which increases the stability of the bike

when it is being ridden.

SUZUKI GSX 1300R Hayabusa: Assembly Guide

This stage is now complete. To prevent damage to the

parts, always store them in a safe place until you need

them again.

Align the holes (circled) of the fuel cap inner with those in

the fuel tank.

Turn the fuel tank over and hold the fuel cap outer, as

shown. Locate the three circled holes on the upper side of

the fuel cap inner and the three circled projections on the

fuel cap outer.

Loosely t a 2.3 × 5mm screw into the hole at the front of

the cap inner (circled).

Align the projections and holes of the fuel caps, then push

the fuel cap outer straight down until it clicks into place.

Check that the lock cover is able to open and close (inset).

Loosely t a 2.3 × 5mm screw into the hole at the rear of

the cap, then turn the screws alternately, a small amount at

a time, until they are both fully tightened.

2.3 × 6mm screws (silver) × 3

(1 spare)

The instrument panel and its

cover are not used in this stage.

Tools Prepare

Phillips screwdriver (PH 1) Plastic bag

Marker pen

Tissue paper

To check the t of the cylinder head and cylinder head

cover, hold them both the same way up and locate the two

projections on the inside of each one.

Your parts

The engine is mounted directly beneath

the fuel tank, angled slightly forwards.

Area you are working on Detail

SUZUKI GSX 1300R Hayabusa: Assembly Guide

This stage is now complete. Although you can’t see very

much of the cylinder head on the completed model, it

adds a good sense of weight and detail.

Fit the two parts together. The cover

should t just inside the edge of the head.

Tighten the screw into place.

The instrument panel is very delicate. Wrap it up with

tissue paper to protect it until it is needed.

Hold the parts together, and insert a

2.3 × 6mm screw into the hole (arrowed)

in the bottom of the cylinder head.

Tighten a second 2.3 × 6mm screw into

the hole on the other side of the bottom

of the cylinder head.

The instrument panel cover should be stored, along with

the instrument panel, in a bag marked with the stage

number so that you can identify them easily when you

need them at a later stage.

crankcase

STAGE 03

Your parts

Area you are working on

The Hayabusa’s engine is located directly

behind the radiator and is partly covered

by the fairing. While the engine is a

fairly compact unit, it is actually made

up of four large cylinders positioned

transversely (in a straight line across

the bike).

The front wheel is not

used in this stage.

SUZUKI GSX 1300R Hayabusa: Assembly Guide

This stage is now complete. With the

upper crankcase attached, the size

of the engine has increased again.

Keep any assembled or unused parts

separately in labelled bags.

Tighten a 2.3 × 6mm screw into the large hole at the other

end of the underside of the crankcase.

Fit the cylinder head and upper crankcase together. The

raised edge of the crankcase should t inside the edge of

the cylinder head.

Tighten the screw into place.

Place one of the 2.3 × 6mm screws into one of the large

holes in the underside of the crankcase, as shown in the

photograph.

The front tyre

STAGE 04

Your parts

Front tyre × 1

Handlebar bridge

Balance weights × 5

Double-sided tape

Phillips screwdriver

The handlebar bridge and

Phillips screwdriver are not

used in this stage.

Tools Prepare

Tweezers Front wheel (Stage 3)

Toothbrush

Plastic bags

The Hayabusa set a new standard for

the development of high-performance

tyres, which now had to be capable of

running at speeds of up to 300km/h.

Area you are working on Focus

Soften the rubber of the front tyre by twisting it with

your hands.

SUZUKI GSX 1300R Hayabusa: Assembly Guide

This stage is now complete. Store the

wheel and unused parts in labelled bags

until they are needed.

Use a toothbrush to clean the surface of

the tyre.

Peel o one of the tabs of double-

sided tape from the strip. Place it

into the recessed area of one of the

balance weights.

When one side of the tyre is properly

positioned on the wheel, turn them both

over and repeat the process to t the other

side of the tyre.

The balance weight should look like this

when tted.

While only one weight has been tted,

more have been supplied, which you can

add to the wheels if you choose to.

Hold the front tyre and put the front

wheel, provided with Stage 3, inside it.

Rotate the wheel slowly as you work one

side of the tyre onto it.

You can x the balance weight to any

point on the inside of the wheel, but

generally it would be placed opposite

the valve.

Rotate the assembly when nished to

check that the wheel and tyre are properly

tted together.
