btw...the motorex is for the busa...i still have like 5 qts of amsoil...so, i'll keep running it in the TL

I've run Amsoil in my TL1000R for a while now and I'm not impressed with how the clutch feels. I'm currently running motorex 10w60. expensive as crap...whether its doing any good, who knows...but i'll buy into it for the time being and see what happens down the road.

+1 I already talked to the dealer and will probably have it done tomorrow.

At 4,500 miles, its just about time to replace the rear tire. I have always been a fan of the pilot powers and have got pretty decent mileage (considering) out of them. I have no complaints about the BT015 that come OE on the busa (other than mileage), but I wanted to get some insight from other...

Noticed any difference in power, sound, or fuel ecomony after the mod has been done?

Can anyone vouch for how well the bike runs after installing a Ti-Force exhaust and a Power Commander? I know it adds power, but I'm more interested in reliablity, looks, and the sound. Does it start up as easy and run as smooth as stock?

I like it a lot. I set it at 6k during break in and now have it set at 10k. The bike runs too smooth and quite to go off of feeling alone, so having the shift like is nice.

Has anyone come up with a definiative answer to the remapping problem associated with installing a ti-force exhaust. Must you run a piggy back ecu like a power commander? Is there once type of commander that is better than another? What are the pro's and con's of each one?

After paying $150 for a service at the stealership...they had better clean and oil my chain for me. On my TLR...I would spray WD-40 on it every so often and only had to replace it after 10k mainly b/c the rear sprocket was wore out. Unfortantly I forgot my camera for the trip, mainly b/c after...

150 mi. to a tank around town averaging out to around 37 mpg and about 180 mi. on the hwy averaging around 44 mpg. not the best bike in the world for gas mileage but i don't mind the extra cost vs. all the fun i have on the bike.

Just wanted to add my .02 worth on my trip to Myrtle Beach from Birmingham, AL. First off, I want to say the bike did wonderfully. I left Birmingham around 12:30 and went to Raleigh, NC to visit some old friends. So far I've been averaging 37 miles per gallon around town, so I was curious to see...

Does anyone know if the calipers off of a GSXR1000 (K??) will work on the new Busa? As wonderful as this bike is, I'm not very fond of the braking capacity of this bike. Any suggestions?

would anyone like to donate or know of a '08 busa ecu they want to get rid of?!? i'm not quite ready to unpot mine but i'll be happy to do it if someone wants to give me a spare.

sorry about the lack of an introduction... i have a tendency to cut right to the chase. i bought my '08 busa back in november and got about 1100 miles on it now and am ready to put an exhaust on it. i've been reading on tlzone.net about how they are hacking the ecu on the tl's and i was curious...

has anyone out there tried to hack the factory ecu on an '08 busa yet? btw, newbie here, thought i would open up w/ a good one.
