Yea I will never understand that. You should see my visor. It's disgusting. So many bugs and rock chips. Is it me or do you see some busa guys rocking those german nazi style helmets wearing sunglasses and a bandana? I haven't came across many busas on the road but the ones I've seen, the...

is it that bad once you get it ironed out? I would imagine it's possible to retrofit or replace what ever goes wrong with a later model gen 1 parts

If that bike wasn't half way across the country for me, I would totally go and check it out. So how do these bikes handle high miles? I almost bought a blackbird last year with 66k miles.

Oh no. Yea, This thing seems like a total scam. I think I really need to walk away on this one. I always try and avoid roll back odometers. Every ad this guy posts, the millage is different. I don't know if his grammar is beyond terrible or trying to be sneaky. Not sure why he told me 4600...

wow, nice find! he probably put one too many zeros. he told me 4600 miles in an email. Too bad it isn't reserved not met. I might throw a bid down and see how it goes. thanks again edit: yea in this description he said 4k miles. "Suzuki Hayabusa | eBay " he also says in this bike description...

I have been looking every day. There were some other nice ones but they were way too far away. I feel like the 99 that I'm nuts over is so appealing to me is because of the appearance and mods (which is a bad thing). I know I could probably find someone to polish a hayabusa's frame and invest...

He got back to me and said, "I have it at 5900 for just the bike witch I think is a respectable price. I still have the print out of the specifics about the bike the previous owner had when it was for sale at powerhouse. it says 80 shot but I really wouldn't now the difference between the two. I...

Hmm I just asked the guy about the cams and he said the pervious owner had them installed at powerhouse. I'm hoping he's misinformed and not just lying to get more money out of the bike

:bowdown: Thank you so much for this information. Yea in the email he said, "I bought it from aguy 73 years old" so this is definitely the same bike. If I do go see this bike, I'll just ask him if he has any receipts of the cams. I'm glad to know it was taken care of. Hopefully the 2nd owner...

Believe me, I'm trying to talk myself out of it as well. I really value everyone's input. I'm no stranger to old bikes. I have a 1985 honda V65 sabre and instead of wasting money on parts on it, I bought a wrecked sabre from the insurance auction for $200 and I've been parting it out and...

New Jersey. Picked up a 2015 DR-Z400SM. I love that bike so much. I didn't own it for less than 48 hours before I had a full, custom made exahust on order haha. 2 months after that I picked up a 05' Dr200. I almost bought a new hayabusa since they had a crazy good deal on one and amazing...

:laugh: Has anyone heard of Powerhouse? :rofl: haha yea I know, I should've done a little more researching before I commented. It seems that most busas are generally in the same price bracket for the 1st gen models. I feel like if the seller of the 1999 took care of all the...

I just emailed the seller and he said that this shop called Powerhouse in New York did all the work (including the 2nd gear undercut) and apparently they only work on hayabusas. He said the fuel pump was replaced last year, oil was changed every 2500 miles and it was never tracked. I'm feeling...

Personally, I'm in love with the 1st gen, un restricted models. I love the color scheme and the cool factor about them. I'm not a fan of the gen II styling. The only other one I would consider is the blue and gold gen II. The first gens seem more raw. I know anything first gens are probably more...

I really appreciate that advice. I will defiantly use it to my advantage. I fell in love with the mod list with my current bike and that has set me back pretty far. It was set up in drag racing spec so it ran terrible on the streets. The big bore kit made it terrible around town and now the...
