I just drooled on my Keyboard. This actually brings up a great point though. Your dumping a bunch of coin into a bike that is a few years old and by most accounts it should be more than capable of running with the latest generation of Superbikes. I would love to do that to my Busa! Wouldn't take much to equal the gains that Suzuki finally threw at the 08 Busa. So you wind up with a bike that is a few years older and incrementally cheaper to insure than a new bike with far superior stoppers and suspension. All for about the same price as a new one. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Unfortunately if you get bored with the project after a few thousand miles you end up selling it at a huge loss. The only way I would dump the big bucks into a ride was if I was gonna race it, or keep it for a very long time and stack the miles up. Just my .02  

BTW sweeet ride!

Hang onto it
