    Avoid NT-Fairing.com

    Welp, i pretty much had a lot of the same experience with them. I did a well documented build her on the org. Just be glad you don't have to try to put the stuff together. Fitment is a nightmare. my builder spent hours trying to get it to look good and gave up. I spent hours and hours with a...

    No Prep Discussion

    i used to watch this "no Prep" till i found out its all bs. They do prep and they do use all kinds of crap to make the tires stick. Lets face it, not one of those cars is anything less than a race car. I like real no prep real street cars.

    Moving On

    Welp, after a ton of reflection and time since i sold my turbo busa, i have decided to leave Suzuki all-together. They have been a disappointment to me for a few years now and just keep failing miserably when it comes to busas etc. The gen 3 as far as i am concerned is a complete wash. I was...

    Gen 1 Aftermarket plastics

    That was pretty much my exp as well with that brand. The dash pieces really sucked as well as the front dam pieces.

    I'm old. So maybe I just don't know where to look.

    i think its a lot like ears peirced. Used to be frowned upon for men etc. I have had mine done for 30 years. Was an 80s thing. As for nail painting i think its a lot along those same lines. just the newest trend to shock or demonstrate you are cool.

    Picking up new 2023 'busa next week. Any tips?

    Tires was mentioned, but not enough. The stock tires from the factory are crap at best. They require a good break in. 500 to 1000 miles of multiple heat and cool cycles before they get grippy. DO NOT push it in the corners until you have done this. If you have never had this kind of power...

    EK master links, rivet vs screw?

    This has been discussed many times. The overwhelming majority say rivets the only way to go. I prefer snap in clips on chain masters. Most slam them as not as strong yet we use them in the industrial setting for all kinds of high hp and high speed applications with no issues. Motors that spin...

    Extension price and twisties

    In my opinion anything over 2-4 inches on stretch makes a drastic difference in handling. If your wanting to carve do not stretch much.

    Daily rider... 190, 240, 300?

    Whats your goal? Just to look good and ride slow? then fat tire it. If you want to carve and be a hoodlum, do not fat tire it. I have owned all of the above, and fat tires destroy the handling period.

    2008 Hayabusa stops running after long rides

    Do NOT load test the battery on the bike. make sure you have it on a bench. I second the rectifier and potentially spark plugs if they aren't new. Make sure you have the correct plug, it makes a huge difference on these machines. i can not recall the proper plug but there are 2 recommended...

    Best Insurance Company for Hayabusa Owners in the USA

    I say State farm. I currently have mine there and pay 30 bucks a month i think? Problem is you have to have more than just your bike with them or they wont write a policy.

    Torque arm

    cheap option for getting it loose would be visegrips. lock it on there super tight and give it a go.
