Hello all,
I've been checking out this site for several months as a guest. I'd like to start off by saying that not only am I impressed by the amount of information available, but also by the level of professionalism and courtesy exhibited by everyone.
I'm a Triumph fan at heart, but I knew that someday I'd like to have a Busa. My opinion is that you can't get a bigger bang for the buck, and I've always liked the styling. If the new variant hadn't come out, I was going to try and find a '06 LE as I really like the looks of it.
A couple of weeks ago, I bought a Blue K8 at Champion Motorsports in Sterling, VA. I got it for approx. $10,400 with a 30 day temp tag, but I'm still going to have to fork over some bucks when I register it here in MD for tax, tags, etc. I did a lot of price shopping over the past couple of months and basically found that the VA/WVA dealers had the best prices. I bought the blue one because my daughter liked the color. I also heard through the rumor mill that it was the slowest color of the three, so I figured I wouldn't have any traffic law related issues. I'm beginning to have my doubts about that, though. I'm going to do some basic mods to it, and I'm sure that I'm going to start off with a set of Heli-bars. I'm heading over soon to check if that group buy for them is still on. I'll post some pics later. Take care.
