joined the ranks...'05 new busa in Daytona

O Holy P · #1 (**permalink**) 09-09-2008, 07:40 PM

Hey guys bought my '05 about a week ago with 4900 miles on it. Looking to get a single side high mount, commander, filter, & some HID's for it. Any other suggestions for a new 'busa owner to get the bike goin, please advise.

Here it is:

...and here's my old ride that was stolen

RIP

Take care,

Patrick

Hey, Patrick! Welcome to the family.

Gorgeous ride you've got there...one of my all-time favorite combos.

There are plenty of opportunities to give and take from this forum, and the members are pretty much like family. Dysfunctional...so don't forget to take your meds!

J/K!!!

Congrats on your new scoot, brother!

Oh nice bike brother, the 05's were the best year.

Yes, and you love reflectors.

You have lots of happy miles ahead of you.

I have added another 1200 since this pic...

I'm glad I got it fairly unmolested. Only thing it had on it when I got it was the DB screen & some heli-bars. Reflectors have already been removed, I took that pic the 1st or 2nd day of ownership.

Integrated tail light will be here in a few days and I'll be de-mudflapping it in the meantime.

I actually live down in port orange, which is right next to daytona as you know. If you want to get together and ride, send me a pm.

O Holy P · #17 (**permalink**) 09-10-2008, 10:20 PM

I'm actually in Port Orange as well, as you know we all just say we're from Daytona cuz no one knows the surrounding cities.

Same to you, if time allows I'm always down for a cruise.

Nice ride!

As for suggestions for other mods.... you may want to consider SS brake lines and better pads. Ride safe and have fun!
