    softer seats....

    I bike had a Corbin on it when I bought it, and I thought it was nice. A fellow member on the Org. asked if anyone wanted to swap for a Tobin. I did and I loved the Tobin, but he was satisfied with the Corbin. For me, the Tobin is much, much better than a Corbin. But... you'll need to sit...

    09 gsxr 1000

    I sold my Busa about a month ago, and I miss it a lot. I have an '09 HD Ultra and a Honda Interceptor, but I'd like to get another sport bike. I'm leaning towards another Busa. Why do you like the GIXXER better than the Busa? I'm 6'3"/280 and I think the Busa is a little more comfortable...

    The battle is over!!!

    Were you clocked with a doppler radar or a lazer? The doppler picks the "best target" and the lazer is very precise and only picks up what you aim it at. Officers normally don't go to pre-trial hearings because it is only an arraignment. Your lawyer pleaded guilty or nolo on your behalf and...

    Swingarm Extensions

    I'm planning to stretch my '06 Busa 4"/6" and I'm looking for some suggestions. RC's Performance has a bolt on for $225.00 and a EK 530 ZZZ chain for $175.00. Schnitz has a "Myrtle West" for $250.00, but they want $225.00 for their chain. RoaringToyz has a kit for $500.00, but it only...

    Bolt on vs. full system exhaust

    Thanks guys. I had considered getting a Gen II Busa, but I've changed my mind. I like the looks of the rear end of the Gen I better, and my Busa already has some add ons like the PCIII, Speedohealer, GIPro/TRE, etc. (Hope I didn't offend any Gen II owners out there, just a matter of...

    Bolt on vs. full system exhaust

    Any thoughts on the Muzzy M-10 or Brock's Alien Head? I actually prefer the look of dual cans, but if I change to a 4-2-1 I like the small exhuast like the M-10 or A-H. I appreciate the info you shared.

    Bolt on vs. full system exhaust

    I have an '06 Busa with Yoshimura bolt on cans. I haven't noticed any number markings on them, so I don't know what model exhaust they are. I'm considering installing a full system of some type. I already have a PCIII and a TRE. I've read that the increase in performance is because the...

    Purchasing a busa from a dealer, pricing advice

    I don't ever plan to buy a new bike again. There's too many good, low mileage, well taken care of bikes out there. Many come with a lot of expensive upgrades that you probably won't be paying for. As far as all the great deals people tell you about, somebody is always going "one up" you...

    Kawasaki Vulcan

    I had a 2007 Kawasaki 2000 (2053cc, the largest v-twin) and I liked it. It had a lot of power for a v-twin and it handled well. If he's a good size guy he'll have no problems, but they are big and heavy. The 1600 is just as big as the 2000. I traded it for a H-D Ultra (Geezer Glide) because...

    Yoshimura PCIII USB Map

    I have an '06 with Yoshimura pipes, GIpro TRE, and a PCIII. It was on the bike when I bought it, and the guy I purchased it from gave me a disc with the mapping on it. If it will help you, I'll be glad to send it to you. I'd like to get the disc back when you're through. I won't be in any...

    I gave $7500 for an '06 with a new rear tire, new chain, GIPro w/tre, PC III, Speedo Healer, Corbin seat, lowering links, 16/40 gearing (I have the 17 sprocket also),and double bubble windshield. Had 6k miles on it. Don't know if this helps you or not.
