    Amsoil synthetic oil

    I used 0W-40 AFF, JASO MA. Seemed to work okay. I have since switch to Maxima Maxum4 Ultra 0W-30. Busa shifts much easier. Gixxer seems to be much quieter.

    Gen II Busa Newbie -Tires?

    I have the Michelin Pilot Power 2CTs. I put about 6K on the rear and it is past the wear bars in the middle. I was going to do the 2CT again on the rear.

    Cycle Connection Gaithersburg, MD Review

    I believe that the fee's vary based on the work you have done. Best to let Shawn make that comment. Give him a call, they are very upfront with costs and stick with what they quote. I picked up a GSXR 1000 over the off-season. I hope to get to them this summer for a tune. Busa is still...

    Dragon trip

    Good video, I liked to beat it against my memories. I was at the Dragon 17-19 Sep. You should also do the Devils Triangle and Cherohala Skyway.

    Does anyone do a cold check on oil?

    Sorry, just got to 6K for an oil change. There are many other Gen II's that could have done this. BTW - My manual says filler-up to the "F" line!
