Where can I get a pair of these mirror extenders? ***edit: --------------------> Never mind I just found them in the product section. Thanks. <!--EDIT|Doglanta Reason for Edit: None given...|1099273812 -->

At 5'8" tall the stock Busa was not very comfortable for my body.  The worst was my neck with my head constantly at the most extreme looking up position.  Once I raised the bars up 1 inch, lowered the back end 1 inch, and got a Tobin seat which lowered me about 1 3/4 inches the bike is now very...

So far I have only had the chance to go back and forth to work once, 45 minutes each way. I can only guess at the comfort over long distances but I don't think that will be a problem judging by what I have felt so far.

It does not take much grinding to make a huge difference. Take a real close look at where the kickstand actually makes contact with the metal stop and you will see where to grind off a small amout of metal off of the kickstand. A small amount of grinding there will translate into allowing the...

Although I absolutley love the bike I set out to see what I could do to make it a little more comfortable for my short frame. My neck was taking a beating holding it at almost the full upright and locked position just to watch the road ahead of me. I just completed a three step process and can...

Just got my Tobin seat today too.  I absolutely love it.  If I ever have another child, boy or girl, I'm gonna name it Tobin....ok maybe not really but I do love the seat! He used a new material for him, faux carbon fiber and it matched my tank cover fantastically.  Tobin also did the stitching...

I think if I had to do it again I could improve on it some. The thickness of the nylon plate is exactly one inch. I toyed with the idea of going a bit taller but was afraid I might run into cable issues. When I picked up the nylon I also picked up a section of 7/8 aircraft steel tubing, I may...

Hi all, I am pretty new to the forum, just got my 2004 black & purple Busa a couple of weeks ago.  One of the first things I did was to follow the advice of some here and sent my seat to Tobin for him to do his magic.  While I am waiting for him to finish I decided to see what I could do about...

Wow, great looking seats....gotta get me one, and fast! Thanks for the link.

Thanks for the info BigBS, I have done a search for Tobin seats and have not been able to find a web site for him. Any chance you (or anybody) has a link? I know what you mean about the mods I mentioned being the beginning. I am definitely a veteran of the modification wars. Doglanta (Ken)...

Thanks for the welcome guys. I have been looking at this site for the past couple of weeks but waited to post anything until I actually picked up my bike. Billbell, to answer your question the Rocket has loads of power and is brutally fast. It is a dream to drive too, very comfortable and...

I picked up my 2004 Busa last Friday and just wanted to stop by and say hello.  My name is Ken and I live near Marietta Georgia.  I am enjoying the heck out of the bike and look forward to getting to some of the mods.  I also have a 2005 Triumph Rocket so I guess you can call me a speed junkie...
