RYN Motors has officially transitioned the FP3 platform from the previously planned Aprilia 1100cc engine to the Suzuki Hayabusa 1340cc powertrain, marking a strategic upgrade aligned with the company’s performance, reliability, and scalability goals.
After extensive evaluation during development, RYN selected the Hayabusa 1340cc as a more robust foundation for the FP3’s demanding use case. Known for its strength, durability, and proven performance in high-output applications, the Hayabusa platform offers significant headroom for both naturally aspirated and high-performance configurations.
A key factor in the decision was the Hayabusa’s unmatched aftermarket ecosystem. The engine benefits from decades of development, global parts availability, and a deep knowledge base across motorsports and performance communities. This allows RYN Motors to source components efficiently, support long-term serviceability, and confidently scale production.
The new platform also unlocks an exciting opportunity for customers: forced induction! With the Hayabusa’s strong bottom end and widespread turbo and supercharger support, RYN can now explore high-performance variants that push the FP3 to an entirely new level of acceleration and track capability.
“This move gives us a stronger and more future-proof platform,” said the RYN Motors team. “The Hayabusa engine is well known for handling serious power, and the level of aftermarket and technical support around it is second to none. It aligns perfectly with our goal of delivering a raw, high-performance driving experience while maintaining reliability and serviceability for our customers.”
The transition is being integrated into the current FP3 beta program, where ongoing testing and validation will refine calibration, cooling, and drivetrain integration. Insights from this phase will directly inform final customer specifications.
RYN Motors will continue to share updates as testing progresses and as new performance configurations (including potential forced-induction variants) are explored as part of the FP3 roadmap.
