Great video and description. Thank you very much!

So does that mean the internal nut can be set to the maximum setting (no threads showing), and then adjustment can be made to the external nut?

I just replaced the fork seals on my '09 Busa and I think I may have incorrectly placed the internal fork nut. I just referenced another thread and it appears that the nut has to have 11mm of thread showing before tightening the nut. Will I be able to readjust the nut position with the forks...

I've owned the bike for the last 6,xxx miles and have only let it sit during the 4 winter months the last 2 years. I can't really think of any other details that I can give. It can only be felt in the left handlebar and only during very slow turns. It will "click/bind" 1 time then go away. I...

There are 9,xxx miles.

I'll check that out. Thanks!

Hey guys, during last season, I periodically experienced a "tight" noise/click while making low speed turns which also felt like a "binding" of something that is felt in the left handlebar. It isn't consistent with every turn I make and I'm unable to easily reproduce the problem but I know it's...

I have a concern with overlaying new decals and had a few more questions. Is overlaying of the new ones done to prevent having to do work to remove old ones? Is the thickness of the two combined layers of decals noticeable? Is the old layer of decal preserved and reusable again by simply...

This red looks nice. Do you mean to lay this set of decals right over the old ones without removing the old ones?

I've owned my first Busa now for about 6 months and have put on about 3.5k miles and am loving it! The factory white/blue/silver is really nice still but I'm wanting to change it up a bit or even completely (depending on cost, of course). I've tried Google image searching already but don't...

Here's another how-to thread with pictures on the "marble modification" to a Gen II Busa. I just did this yesterday and no more exhaust popping/backfire on deceleration.

For sure... Thanks!

Alright, just got the Bridgestone S20 EVO's installed and took it for spin. Feels good so far!

Alright, thanks for the replies. I think I'm actually going to get a set of Bridgestone Battlax S20 Hypersports. The set will cost me just under $170 after rebate and if they don't work out, I won't feel too bad. I also see that a few Busa riders go with 200/50 profile tires. The S20 is also...

There are so many to choose from and even more opinions - I'm just looking to get the best deal I can and at the same time, feel like I made the wisest decision for a safest ride possible. I only ride in a straight line until I'm forced to make a turn to follow my destination route and only...
