    Honda\'s CBR929RR

    I also own a busa and am happy with it,the specs I gave were for discussion purposes and for that it worked well.....The Honda\ZX12\R1 style is not for me and thats why (after selling my zx11)I got a busa (definite straight line animal!)....but If your prepared to sacrifice a little performance...

    tip-over sensor and intermittent power loss

    there is a 'tip-over' sensor that shuts down ignition and fuel if the bike leans over more than 43 degrees, sensor is located on the under rh side of rear tank pivot, to bypass it, unplug it and fit a resistor from 60,000 to 64000 ohm 1/2 watt carbon in place of it. BEWARE IF YOU DO THIS the...

    mobil 1 and wet clutches

    according to mobils tech dept, they would rather we use their 4T 15w50 full synthetic bike oil,theory is that the mobil 1 range has friction modifiers which might cause 'wet' clutches to slip ! unusal though ,I ran it in my zx11 for 4-5 years and no problems even with many hard launches,was I...

    major busa mods.....why?

    how much money do you want to spend just to beat your mates busa by a few mph's top end and maybe a bees crutch over the quarter? why bother (scream i'm getting old 38yo)......my view for what its worth......put on some free flow mufflers for a nicer sound and have it retuned to suit .......and...

    Kerker Slip ons - anyone tried them?

    suzuki have probably done a good job with their pipework to suit the standard bike and the only real restriction would be the mufflers to meet noise levels,would be safe to assume that replacement free flowing mufflers and good retune would deliver a noticeable increase in power.
