    Power loss

    Hey all- So my bike tipped over in the parking lot last week when I was forced to stop abruptly mid-turn while exiting my parking space by a speeding pickup. Some minor cosmetic scuffing, nothng too major- but the real problem is that the bike hasn't got the same explosive power it had...

    Busa Owner's Gallery

    Re: Busa Owner's Gallery Love this bike more and more every day. So far my mod and equipment list includes HID, Alarm unit, Rapid Transit tank bag & Cortech saddlebags- pretty much mods and accessories that reflect my interest in staying alive, discouraging theft and taking long trips. Next...

    How long can you watch it?

    Harley riders- gotta love 'em.

    What drew you to the busa?

    The reputation was famous and irrefutable. I walked into the bike shop with only one question on my mind- was it comfortable (I'm 6'4" and not interested in contortion). Check was written moments later.

    Jeremy Lusk of San Diego Passed Away

    RIP... always horrible to see a rider go down. I wonder if this event will prompt some reform of freestyle MX. AFAIK this is the first widely publicized fatality in this "relatively" new sport. Godspeed...

    That's it- I need a road trip...

    Biscuit Bash? Sounds great, if the weather holds. All I'd need is two trees from which to hang my hammock and a bar. I rode the length of the BRP on my DRZ last year and had a blast- riding the 'Busa will be heavenly. Odd that the last (and first) time I passed through that area was as...

    That's it- I need a road trip...

    I've been searching for some details on the Fall Bash 08, but haven't been able to piece it all together. Can someone please direct me to the right thread or pass me the info directly? Thanks!

    That's it- I need a road trip...

    Damn, I wouldn't have thought it got quite so chilly there in winter. Thanks a lot for the warnings- I guess it's the Keys or nothing until spring!

    That's it- I need a road trip...

    I've never been to the southwest, but I can't shake the feeling that I need to be there. The route I forsee is south from the WV panhandle, down the Blue Ridge Parkway to Cherokee, NC, then west and eventually back again. For anyone who knows, is this a good time of year for a road trip to...

    Waning Days of Autumn

    Temps got back into the upper 70's today, so I hit the road. These shots were taken at Antietam Battlefield. Damn, I love this bike.

    When you bought the busa

    I forgot to mention that I would much rather have bought an American-made machine, if we produced a product similar to the Hayabusa. I would have even paid a bit more and been happy with a bit less.

    When you bought the busa

    When my bike was still fresh from the dealership, the landlord's wife asked me, "Why didn't you buy a Harley?" I'm ashamed to say that I wasn't prepared for the question, and in my weakness blurted out "Because they're too expensive." Fact is, I paid cash for my "08- could've had any bike I...
