i bought a set of buell (r.i.p.) footpegs and modified them to fit the busa. making them fit was not that difficult and just took about half an hour. here are some pix:

the beginning. quite ugly and far away from being cool, the originial footpegs:




the buell-stuff looks much better and promised to offer more comfort:




may the games beginn:




the buell pegs are too wide to match, some grinding makes it fit:





a few minutes later the new peggies were installed and ready to be tested:




200 miles later i found out two things: comfort is much better than with the genuine stuff. driving is much more fun, feels completely different, though the pegs are just about one inch repositioned. hell, yeah! success!

the other thing is: my shoes collide with the exhaust. that means: my shoes get bbq-ed and the exhaust is scratched by my feet. thatīs unexceptable. so i had to go back to my garage and found a solution that makes me, the exhaust and my shoes happy. pix to come this weekend.

as i hope to finish the other modifications these days, too, iīll post some more pix pretty soon. i created a one-off passenger seat cover, did some paintjobs, installed a wider back-tyre, adjustable links, new windscreen, new brakes and some other stuff. canīt wait to reassemble the bike tomorrow. ]]> Busa Mods godzilla http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/121208-back-black-winter-mods.html http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/121018-power-commander-5-2005-hayabusa.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 19:23:32 GMT is there any what you can put a pc5 with autotune on an 05 busa? is there any what you can put a pc5 with autotune on an 05 busa? ]]> Busa Mods riggsracin http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/121018-power-commander-5-2005-hayabusa.html http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/121014-anyone-sell-license-plate-hide-kits.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 17:44:16 GMT ok i seen on a couple of youtube vids of people being able to flip up and hide their license plate with the push of a button, does anyone sell them? ok i seen on a couple of youtube vids of people being able to flip up and hide their license plate with the push of a button, does anyone sell them? ]]> Busa Mods LeDauz http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/121014-anyone-sell-license-plate-hide-kits.html http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/120977-hayabusa-master-cylinders-k7-gsxr-1000-a.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 00:47:46 GMT Hello, Does anyone know if you can put hayabusa master cylinders clutch and front brake on a k7 gsxr 1000?

I read the mod and it got me worried, I mean I had a Ducati with sui-side stand (auto flip up when u took the weight off of it) and an Aprilia, which was about 2 deg off vertical on the sidestand....but my question is this I have on 09 and it seems ok, did they cure the side stand issue with this model?

I yanked the pipes and wheels off, and sold them. I'm gonna put my 1000 wheels on it and get new wheels for my 1k. After that, I bought an extended tail from fastnotch2002, and slapped that on. Man, talk about a killer look! Next move is to get the swing arm off and swap it for a 10" extended arm. This way it looks right with the tail, and I can leave way harder at the line. After I get my chassis back to rolling, I'm gonna start gathering turbo kit parts up. I'm gonna do a stg 1 poorboy set-up for now, on a stock motor with some studs and rods. I wanna see around 300hp for this year, then tearing it apart and hammering it out next year to make some more serious numbers. I'll post some pics as I do the work:thumbsup: ]]> Busa Mods Punisher99 http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/120954-tore-punisher-apart.html http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/120935-starting-my-winter-mods.html Mon, 16 Nov 2009 01:12:58 GMT Well not to much to report.

I sourced a complete GEN II front end and have it installed. Bolts right on. In addition I picked up a set of 09 GSXR 1000 monobloc calipers. I also have my cycle cat triple tree and handle bar risers installed.



My forks are now off the bike and will be on their way to Ohlins USA this week for a complete upgrade along with a new Ohlins shock. I also have a set of trick wheels on enroute to my house from Jon Reed at Sport Chrome. I cant wait to see them in person.

Things to come: New turbo, turbo header and dump pipes. Radial clutch and brake master cylinder. Probably the RCS's. New rotors, still debating what brand. CTS rotor, Brembo or Braking are what I've narrowed it down to. ]]> Busa Mods turbobusa2000 http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/120935-starting-my-winter-mods.html http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/120823-big-winter-project-under-way.html Sat, 14 Nov 2009 04:24:40 GMT Im trying to build an engine to handle power to a new level and im looking for new ideas.

One Idea im thinking is reduce rotating mass by butting aluminum rods in by BME. BME makes rods that hold up to unlimited hp in dragsters and the make rods for us to and cost less than carillo's.

Im looking in to knife cutting the crank too. Who does this at a good price.

Im going to be posting some pics of my build and will have some questions like why did the oneway bearing that the starter goes to on the crank. Not sure the real name but it turned blue under heat. It is the part on the crank that is spun buy the starter threw a few gears.

Any one take out the counterbalance?

If you have ideas for power and speed spit them out. Even the little things. Im wanting to play with the big boys in LSR next summer but I need more than just power.

i'm not trying to be a cheapass or anything, but they are just plates, right? any reason to spend an extra $45 for something that should essentially do the same job?

No one seemed to really give much input.
So, here we go:
You guys have four rubber stacks in your airbox that go small stack, big, big, and small...

What combination does what?

What if I change out both bigger ones and have just four small stacks and vice versa?

What gives me more low end, and what gives me more high end power?

Is it true the factory stacks are to small and to large?

Should I just waist $279.00+ on billet velocity stacks that claim 4-9hp? Thanks! ]]> Busa Mods MikeSomething http://www.hayabusa.org/forum/busa-mods/120280-velocity-stack-guide.html
