When we are the fastest we say we are the fastest.Very few people touch the full potential of a stock Busa, and we are worried about the Kawi
I can see it now - Squid needs to have the fastest thing on 2 wheels
-has strange dream telling him he should atleast ride something with 2 wheels bigger than moped before purchasing
-figgures dream is just bad burito he ate night before
-decides to get mom to give him a ride to the local kawi dealer
-talks to sales guy for 2 minutes, pays full price and finances at 24.5% for 6 years
-decides to cruise the local high school parking lot before he wheelies over to his brothers house in hopes to obtain some gas money
-with plan in head, he pulls out of the dealership - trying to smoke rear wheel & kills it---a little embarased, he restarts the bike and revs it to 8K and releases the clutch
-New kawi goes vertical, leaving Squidy on ground with broken tailbone, and smashed bike
-dealer comes to his aid and says he has another bike inside he will hold for him once insurance pays off the new bike with less than 1 mile
-Squiddy asks the dealer - what is insurance?
Ok, enough said....and if you don't think it will happen Im willing to accept bets via paypal...lol
when someone else is faster, we says he's gonna hurt himself
Theat may hold true for some, but Im only commenting for myself and the way I see things.
I've never claimed the "Busa" is the fastest, but it is fast. And I would say my "Squid scenario" comment holds true for the Busa and the Kawi (Since this was a Kawi thread, I pointed my comments to the Kawi).
There are a lot of inexperienced riders reading a lot of magazines, daydreaming, etc...taking on a bike only because of Ego, or status and not realizing what they are actually riding. And never really unserstanding the ability needed to actually operate the bike, thus failing to realize that skills are developed over time and circumstance, not horse power, torque, and ego.

I almost spit on my monitor when I read that! Funny stuff!
You can't polish a TERD!!!.and that thing is FUGLY.
There was no GSXR1000 in the 90's.
How embarassing for Kaw. You know damn well they were trying to get the 200hp mark (its obvious what a good marketing tool this would be) and even released a "we almost made it" ram-air number and still came up a touch short.
I'm interested to see dyno results I'm guessing mid 170's.
busa crazy

it looks descent lowered and straped!! but it's still not a busa!!!!!!!
The crap I'm reading in this thread is unbelieveable.
Either Suzuki gets off it's dead a$$ and updates the Busa or Kaw will be getting my hard earned dollars.
I couldn't care less about the name on the side, I want the fastest hypersport machine with all-day comfort on two wheels, end of discussion.
If it's a Kawasaki, <span style='color:crimson'>and at this point it sure looks like it's going to be</span>, sign me up.

I didn't see any mention in any of the articles as to where the HP was measured. I'm assuming that it was crankshaft and not the rear wheel.[/QUOTE]
197hp does sound impressive, but I'm waiting for the dyno numbers to tell me how much of that I can really use - I'm guessing it's going to lose about 7% (which will still be good numbers).
