Well it's finally a "roller". Brake fluid, headlite wiring, brake lines, coolant are the final items left to do.
It felt SO GOOD to roll it around the driveway! And liteweight too.

I can't wait to ride this thing, it really feels good to straddle and pretend.

I'm hopin for June completion so I'll do a "road test" and report on the org as soon as it happens.

I don't know about anyone else but I've always dreamed of a Busa like this. I've read ALL the supermoto tests, all the naked performance tests and have strived to make this thing able to pounce all of em. If my red HAYBUS handles as good as it does, I can't imagine how this thing will corner! Ck out the radial front brake lever.

BTW, thanks for all the well wishes over the past 1 1/2 years, gettin really close now! Doyle

Oh yeah, I'll always keep the red one Doug, this one is gonna be for bike nites, local rides in the Sierras and just a little track use on tight courses(there is a dual headlite quarter fairing in Germany for $350 so I may later fit that otherwise I think it'll be too fast to ride unfaired on the "big end").

Thanks for noticing that, it took SO MUCH effort to avoid ALL colors when ordering and assembling! (even the "original" Busa forks). Doyle

Great work Doyle. The theme works well. How about some more pics of the bars, gauge and headlight set up.
