i have a few q's pertaining to the 'busa as well as to bike in general. ok, here goes:
1) why doesn't the 'busa look as good as the other gsx-r bikes (only realized that it was a gixxer when i came to the site)? all of the others from the 600 up to the 1000 (as well as the tl1000r though that isn't a gixxer, or is it?) look nice, but the 'busa seems to look "front-heavy" so to speak.
Well each to their own. Most people who buy a Busa think of it as very unique. Most people who see it think the same.
2) i'm planning to go get my license next month, and i wanted to hear from you guys what would be a good beginner bike? i was checking out the gsx-r600 and also the yzf-r1. i like the r1 because its mufflers are like those of the ducati, but it's a thousand cc bike, and i don't think i want one of those as my first.
---------------
600 suzuki kawasaki and Honda all good and more then enough to start with
--------------------------
3) can a bike with a single exhaust have the exhaust removed and replaced with a dual exhaust without increasing the cc's/bhp? for example, can the 600 have its muffler removed and replaced with two under-the-seat mufflers like how the "big-bikes" have them?
---------------------
Yes all you have to do is make a cross over X at the header. You will not loose much Hp but you will gain the weight.
--------------------------------------------------
4) are any of you on here around 5' 4", and if so, are your feet flat on the ground when you stop or do you have to tippy-toe?
---------------------
I know a couple of people at tha theight and a couple of women 5' 1' you may need to lower it a bit.
------------------------
that's all for now till i think of more.
