    Stopped for the first time....

    on the Busa today. Cop had me sit on my bike and as soon as he saw me he askedhow old I am (67) and why did I have a Hayabusa? I told him the same reason I bought all the rest- I love motorcycles. Said I hit 67 in a 40 zone. I got stopped for 5000 rpm! in second! No ticket, just a warning. The...

    If you knew you you were going to die

    In a heartbeat! I think , tho, that it would upset a lot of people(family) and Id hate to do that. Ive ridden motorcycles for 48 years and I raced supermodifieds for 6 years. In the heat of the moment, Ive never thought about disaster, always hammer down. I have a major will to live, but not a...

    Finally Found A Car As Fast As My Bike

    I have an 08 Busa and an 07 Saleen Mustang. It is supercharged (Edelbrock) and tuned to 450HP. Its quick and fairly fast(3.73 gears) but nowhere as fast or sudden as the Suzuki. I havent raced either one, but I agree with somebody above that its prolly a low 12-upper 11 car and a lo 10 bike.Top...

    WD-40 better than anything else for chain lube?

    Petroleum base is what is used for most lubes. If that would deteriorate n-buna O rings, it wouldnt be good. if it was natural rubber thats another story

    Report your GEN II Busa Issues here.

    Why would you do that? I leave my bike in neutral at stops, and since I bought the best sport bike going, I stupidly assumed that was OK. Was I wrong? In assuming tat the tranny would work at least as well as a Harley?(snicker).Release the clutch just a bit and it will drop in. This tranny is so...

    I am tired of my friends calling me a "Biker". The word has been ruined.

    Every time I hear the word "biker" I think of the kid on a 600 sport bike, tee-shirt around his neck, no gloves, in shorts , helmet. However, his GF is on the back in flip flops and no helmet. Scary I tell people that I ride motorcycles.

    What was THE bike that got you into sportbikes?

    Before there were sport bikes, it would be a Triumph or a Norton,1968, I went to see a friend in Castro Valley ,CA on a 1952 panhead that was pretty stock, swing seat and all. I had paid $250 for it. I was into knuckleheads , the pan was so cherry I didnt want to chop it. He had a Suzuki X-6...

    Who here has a second sport bike

    I have had an 88" Buell for years. Cant sell it so its in my back room. It is very manageable on twisties, maybe turns in better than the Busa. Its fast but the Busa is like an electric motor-dial in whatever you want in whatever gear you are in. Going on the freeway this AM I gasses it up and...
