Picked up this 2004 LE few weeks ago. Bone stock except for the slipons and only 1500 miles on the clock. Long time Kawi rider - other bike is a ZX9 and prior bike was a ZX11. Took a lot to cross over to the dark side!

Great site btw.

Thanks dudes. I'm surprised no one flamed me for the reflectors yet. They're gone now and just ordered some clear alternatives. Poor house here I come!

As for comparing it to my others, my ZX9 has some mods: lowered, geared -1/+2, full muzzy, jet kit and race air filter. It runs high 9s in the 1/4 and may be just a shade quicker than a stock busa, but after about 140, no contest, the big zook will smoke it. The funny thing about the busa is its deceptive power. Where my 9R hits hard about 9k, the busa is so smooth and strong throughout the whole powerband you don't realize how fast you're going. Anyway, I love the bike and plan on keeping it a long time.
