I don't think it's what you're looking for, but I've got a 2005 Gen I (red and black) with 14K miles on it that I was going to sell in the spring. I'm just across the lake from you in the Rochester area. Drop me a line if you'd like.

Either way, good luck in your search and ride safe.

I have a friend selling a really nice custom painted 05' Busa. I want to say the color is really dark blue, almost black. It has some mods like Genmar risers, Humpp mod with grab bars, Full Yosh with new carbon fiber can. I think he might only want $6K. If I could get the bike I would.

The bike is in Va. You can reach me at 540-223-3785 Paul

Here's the bike I'm talking about. This was before I rebuilt the exhaust can with the carbon fiber sleeve. The bike is also lowered alittle and is stretched 6inches. It can easily be put back to stock.

Thanks, Gmbusa. I am trying to stay away from custom paint or chromed anything. Because what I do with my bikes is load them up with tents and camp chairs and Therma-rests,bungee nets and assorted bits and pieces.

and then I ride down gravel roads in campgrounds,through mud and dusty country roads,and frankly,keeping chrome clean just takes away from riding time.

And then I go and buy big bags of dog food and bungee that on....so for me its not about customy,chrome-y add-ons. And because I use it in such a work horse kind of a way, I am staying away from the dark colors as they show every little scratch and nick.

White is SEXY!!!! ( and practical..)

It was a white Gen 1. I kinda don't care that much if it's a Gen 1 or Gen 2. here is something else as well....I had already bought a SW Motech top box rack and Givi topbox for the white busa 3 days away from me. I got a decent deal on it and I was pretty excited about fitting it with hard bags all around.

I would rather not give out any more specifics than that, I don't want to slam an individual, what's done is done.
