    Waiting for delivery of my 2018 busa

    Awesome! Welcome! I've always wanted a white one, but ended up getting a black '18 and I love it. I'm sure the 3rd gen is great, but it's the 2nd gen that I really fell in love with. Have you ridden it yet? I recently broke my finger (not riding) and just got back on it yesterday after 6wks...

    This "Yammie Noob" fella

    He bought one? Really? That's the last thing I'd think he'd do. I wonder if he just did it for ratings (probably). I know he was always saying "turbo busa or die" as a joke, but he also kept dissing the Hayabusa in his videos like "Get a busa! Yeah, right, those things are PIGS." Nobody who...

    My 08 busa won’t start

    I've seen batteries go out abruptly, so it could be that, especially if you haven't replaced it recently. You did mention the lights getting dim. In my experience, starter issues don't just pop up. I'd check that the battery connections are tight, and then check the battery with a voltmeter with...

    What Did You Do To Your Busa, Today?

    Just installed Yoshimura r77 slip-ons. It finally sounds like it should and I'm surprised how much more nimble she is without those huge cans out back.

    Why are all speed ignored suddenly 75 mph?!

    That's actually really cool, and I'd love to have that experience. For me, especially with pickups, vehicles in front tend to slow way down under the speed limit when they notice me. It's not like I'm driving like a hooligan, either. Totally pisses me off

    I'm 99% sure I'm back

    Definitely an exciting time for you! I love my '18 Busa and I'm sure you will, too. Congrats!

    Hayabusa.oRg Regulars ~ Spring Season Check In *

    Still here, still riding! It's been a mild winter in GA, so I've got to go out quite frequently ;) Wife said she'd like to go out for a spin tonight (passenger - though she rides too).

    First Ride Reaction: Where Have I Been All My Life?

    Yes, I go out to the garage just to check on the bike. It's purdy, and it's hard to believe it's really out there. Eagerly waiting for the next ride. I also felt the strange connection with the bike after a few miles. I'm already married, otherwise...:D

    Millenials and motorcycles

    I second that... Growing up, there used to be children playing in the neighborhood. But now, the trend is to not have kids, and, when they do have them, to keep them inside. I know a lot of younger people are addicted to tech, but there are also parents keeping their kids/teens inside for many...
