sad story - hope it helps to sell it quickly and easily.

Sleeper - would you mind listing what you have had done to the bike in the 50k miles....> might be interesting to those of us not there yet.

I like the look too - but I trailer a lot and getting the handlebar sling over the bars would mean removing the mirrors every time.....how hard are they to remove?

That is a sweet Busa Bro - that exhaust must cook your girlfreinds feet though :whistle:

lol - very cool btw - the bush looks like it got younger over time ;-)

thanks - not looking for a COD though.

pashnit has a video of him running one through the twisties fast - think seems to rock in the right hands.

Hi anyone have suggestion as to where I can find a rashed up but mechnically sound Busa - any year? fleabay and craigs has nuthing worthwhile - anywhere else? Looking to do a project bike based on a Busa. Would trade my existing oldchool bike if interested.

get long telescoping thing with magnet on it - priceless for working on bikes and boats

that'll buff out - too soon to joke probably Sorry for your loss Dude - thank God all got out

yeah been lurking for a long time - finally looking to upgrade.....I have busa's great great grand dad right now...still does 150mph two up but getting a bit bored with it.

thanks guys - good stuff. I thought I read somewhere that 2nd gear issues are fairly common.....other than that I have not seen much - unless it has 6,000 miles on the odometer and they are all from 1/4 mile runs :whistle:

check front tire pressure asap and run hand over tire to see if maybe thee is some front tire cupping from low pressure in the past. These heavy sport bikes are brutal on fronts and very sensitive to having the dead-on pressure

got pics?

Hi folks! I am looking at buying a pre-owned hayabusa with about 6k miles on it. It is adult owned, no mods, and looks very clean. What should I look for in terms of possible weak points to check over? Compression? Gears? Electricals? What breakes on these puppies? It is a 2006 if it...
