Thank you kindly! It'll save me from playing musical fasteners :D

To be honest, I have to claim ignorance of spools that rotate. Thinking about it, it does makes some amount of sense, but I'd be concerned about the fasteners loosening and bending, possibly leading to a spilled bike. And considering the limited amount of time the bike'll be on stands, I'll...

Greetings folks. I'll be machining my own lifting spools for my '05 LE and would like to verify the thread pitch of the fasteners used to attach each to the swingarm. Am I correct in my belief that the bosses & lifting spool fasteners are threaded m8 x1.25? Thanks in advance for your time and...

It's now much clearer to me! I found the OEM low beam "adapter assy" here, Suzuki part #35175-24F00: Suzuki 35175-24F00 - ADAPTOR ASSY : Babbitts Suzuki Partshouse Thanks 'MC, I appreciate the help! Regards, Andy

Greetings. The previous owner of my '05 installed an HID headlight system (and applied dark purple spray tint to the headlamp, go figure) and the original H7 headlamp connector along with the associated rubber socket cover were both nowhere to be found. I'd like to restore the original lighting...

I'm relatively new to the sportbike world so I'm allowed to ask stupid questions right[?], as long as nobody throws a chair at me, LOL. Ok so here we go...is there a reason other than aesthetics, that one would remove the factory tail section from their 'Busa [which I happen to think is an...

Nice work, 'looks great! The ostrich seat gives it just the right [& sexy] touch! What's the total drop front and rear? Oh and I love your bird bath powder horn [that's what they look like anyway LOL] storage device :laugh: =8^)

Thinking seriously about ridding myself of the stock 'Busa mirrors 'cause I can't see worth a damn past my shoulders. Which leads me to this question: [Please forgive my ignoramusness] In regards to the gixxer mirrors, are they identical for all the years produced, or is there a specific year...

Thanks Lee for taking the time to respond! I'll prolly go with both items I linked to...I especially like the idea of the built in resistors for the rear LED. I may decide to go all "switchback" for the clear fronts [and an LED flasher], as I like to be seen...and every little bit helps! =8^)

Greetings! I'm in the market for a sequencial LED taillight assembly and clear lens front assemblies for my '05 Busa, and am looking for recommendations as far as a current manufacturer of both. Any commentary or experience with the items linked to below? Sequencial LED [clear lens] taillight...

Thanks for the reply and the suggestions! For now I'm just going to get it into shape, then ride it to see where my comfort level is, then take it from there! Regards, Andy =8^)

So I decided to turn over a new leaf, and in my quest for another bike, I've found myself to be the owner of a 2005 LE Hayabusa in black, and as such, needing to get all up on things, I decided to join the forum for an edjumication and to say hello! Seems like a great crowd here... Coming...
