A stock Hayabusa (with a professional rider) will run a 10 second quarter mile with trap speeds approaching 135 mph.  Many top speed enthusiasts modify the motorcycle with [[turbocharger]]s, and turbocharged Hayabusas hold many top speed records, including the FIM 1350cc world record of 252.832 mph (406.894 km/h). This is the fastest timed average (two way) anywhere in the world for an open wheel motorcycle, and the fastest [[AMA]] US record for an open wheel bike. During the record pass the onboard GPS recorded 261 mph (420 km/h) as a top measured speed.
