Never seen that...

Everyone still compares "this and that" to a busa. No matter how light or how powerful new bikes are, there's still something about the King. Is it fair to say it's the most recognized motorcycle? I think so. The standard that every "land missile" gets compared to? I'm flattered, as the...

Yeah, my boy missed the fine print and found out when we installed. Lucky for him I had a set of Soupy's adjustable links! Modding the triple to go lower than 0.5 really isn't possible without an integrity compromise. I'm no pro, but I think you could do something to your forks to go lower...

Buyer beware! If you plan on lowering your busa, don't waste your time on such a fine piece. No lower than a half an inch I believe. Found out while installing on a buddy's bike. Man was he disappointed...

Since October? Once purchased, pics please...

...and they'll be watching the superbowl like every other team in the NFL except two! I can't stand the Cowboys... if you could tell.

Definitely grab bar for me when using rear stand. Especially on the way down.

I just moved to Oceanside myself. Busa is slammed so twisties are possible, just at a slower speed. I'm down whenever.

Never worn an X-11 but I'm on my 2nd RF1000 and I'll probably never change!

Also consider what you're using the TV for. Do you watch a lot of blu-ray? Gamer? HDTV? I kinda live by the "you get what you pay for" rule. There are a few instances when you're paying for the name, but in my experiences it's payed off. We ride Suzuki for a reason... you could be riding a...

:beerchug:Looks sweet!

I'm pretty sure he didn't have any type of alarm on there and I'm not sure where it was parked. He does have full coverage though, so replacing the bike shouldn't be a problem. I don't live in southern cal, but if I do end up there, I'm gonna be extra careful. The one who steals my bike will...

A good friend of mine stationed at MCAS Miramar called me on Sat. and told me his bike was stolen. Like most riders, this really rashes my @$$. Just spread the word if you know of anyone buying R1 parts: 07 Yam R1 VIN: JYARN20E57A001287 Miramesa area It had MS plates, shortened stock...

Well, I found a cool post on here about an 08 busa. The guy held the starter switch in, then turned on the key. This keeps the light off during start. Then he just pulled the clutch in and the bike starts. The light doesn't come on until he releases the starter switch. Now this got me real...

Got the light to come on once I was at work today. This is pissing me off. I did however keep the bike on a tender last night and rode this morning in a gear lower than usual to keep my RPMs up. Just incase it was a charging/battery thing. I'll try the ballast switching. As far as...
