    Where are the Busas?

    I sold my '07 two years ago. I loved that bike, put 8800 miles on it in a little more than a year. But pushing 70, my knees just couldn't take it anymore. I've had one replaced, next one will be in November. I still ride -- the Dark Side -- and out on the road I've noticed something curious...

    Help! Test ride...

    Looks like I can sell the '07 today. The purchaser wants a test ride and I have no problem with that. But I want to ride along on my other bike. There'sa 45mph empty road near my house and he can shift throught the gears, check the brakes there and see if the everything is in order...

    Thanks! I take it the stock one is paper and disposable?

    Holy crap, I just realized...

    ...I've never even seen the aircleaners on the Bus and it has 8500 miles on it! Runs fine, but I don't even know what they look like or how to service them. I do all of my work on the Harley but I've taken the Hayabusa to the dealer for everything up until now -- the service contract is...

    Third Presidential debate.

    My best friend in high school (50 years ago, class of '63) was the FEMA coordinator for the northwestern states when Romney chaired the meetings. He couldn't stand the guy,said he was a wimp, not particularly intelligent and was a back stabber with no class. 'Bout sums it up, event he Reeps...

    What should I ask for my (boo! hoo!) '07?

    Yikes!!! That little, huh? Wow... I'm in Sacramento CA, don't know where you are located or if that even makes a difference... :- )

    What should I ask for my (boo! hoo!) '07?

    Gang, I've got to let Big Red go. At 67 it is just too quick for my old reflexes. Add the arthritic knees and I cannot ride more than 50 miles without having to walk it off. I'm not peddling the bike here. I'm only interested in selling it locally. But what should I ask? Taking into...

    Man what a diff!

    Well everyone knows that stater electrons are different than blinker electrons and especially horn electrons. It has to do with the quarks; a dead battery on a St. Louis area Busa will cause picture to dim on a particular television on the fetid back street in Cairo. Don't have time to explain...

    Who Thinks Obama Got His Ass Handed to Him???

    I did politics at a very high level at one point. Still can't get the stink off my skin. i will tell you this. Romney is a snake oil salesman. He will say anything to get elected but he doesn't have the balls to run this country only to steal from the middle class. Good luck on this mess...

    Where's my shotgunner's at?? Any Stihl Chainsaw fans? Pinging TZ Armory!

    Homelite man myself. Worked the northcoast woods for years. Built my house in Mendocino with a Homelite Super XL and a 330 for falling. Those and an Eswing waffleface, a Moblie Dimensions Mill, some old generator and a Rockwell 568 wormdrive got it up before the winter rain. And your Stihl...

    First Post.. Buying Road Rash Hayabusa?!

    Hayabusa plastic is stupid expensive. If the title is regular and not salvage, I'd deduct a grand for fairing replacement -- even that will barely cover it...
