    Rear end exchangeable between old & new?

    I've been considering upgrading to a newer model Busa but I'm not crazy about the tail end of the new one. Anyone know whether the rear end pieces of the older style Busa fits the new version? Or if there's any after-market company making a replacement for the rear end of the new model.

    pulled over for the first time, ever!

    I got pulled over years ago in NC, same circumstances; 71 in a 55. I was coming around a big sweeper on Interstate 64, and this was back when there was a big stretch of that limited access highway posted at 55 mph (years later they re-posted it to 65). There was no other cars around and the cop...

    Another busa rider tragedy

    Very sad - RIP. This is the 3rd recent fatal motorcycle accident I've heard of in the last 2 days. What looked like a modified R1 got rear-ended near me (northern VA) this weekend, by a van. And another rear-end accident occurred over the weekend in West Virginia that threw the rider into the...

    '08's... what's the story?

    Looking at the rear end of the '08... my first thought was Suzuki had to have teamed up with Moto Guzzi on the styling changes. IMO, pretty sad lookin'! The good news is, I'm sure the after-market companies are scambling to make decent looking replacement rear end parts - and will no doubt...

    '08's... what's the story?

    Mulitple bikes in my stable have kept me out of the loop with the Busa crowd lately, but I'm back now. Hey, what's the story on the '08's? I've read the initial magazine reports. Heard they're faster than the Gen 1 Busa's, but nothing in the way of specs, or other performance details. Anyone...

    Stolen 99- Update

    That's great SF came through. But $8500 for a '99? Was that an agreed to value?

    'BUSA II-'08

    Glad to see Suz finally decided to throw their hat back in the ring. I read where the '08 is faster than earlier versions of the Busa. And there was a guess to its RWHP, but nothing about its actual performance figures yet. Anyone know? I assume Suz didn't go through all the effort if they...

    Said goodbye to the Busa last night

    Nice ride! It's funny how the mid-life crisis mess sometimes tends to bite more than once. I started riding at age 10. Over the next several decades I owned many bikes. As I grew older and could afford it, the bikes got bigger and faster. This continued into my late 30's/early 40's, when...

    Oh Yeah!  Got her up on one!

    Suggestion. Save your balls for real wheelies. Trade your PitBull in on a CycleCat stand. No fuss, no muss, no stress.

    Took some pics of a custom busa today

    Now this is technology at its best. Pin the throttle and your butt changes the tracks on the CD! Hey, what's not to like?
