hi, i'm a newbie to the Suzuki Hayabusa....and just picked up a 2006 Limited Edition White/Silver model. its not my first sport bike (had ninjas, hurricanes/cbrs, gsxrs, etc.), but it has been a while since owning one (about 15yrs).
anyhow...i've been told this is the best place/support for the Busa!!! hence my post.
i was told by the original owner and seller the Busa has an "Alien Undertail" kit. the factory turn signals were removed and the tail light and turn signals are now in one condensed, small location at the very end of the tail, all inside clear lenses.
for me, the first thing;
i REALLY want to do is rid the Busa of what i consider are very unattractive dual cans/mufflers, maybe at the same time, even lessen the weight of the Busa a bit too. i've seen, on some sport bikes, exhausts that exit right under the tail side vs. left/right sides. they come out right under the passenger seat, just above the tire.
i went to the local motorcycle store, they said their NOT available for the 2006 year models.
anyone know of one (or others) that i can look into and maybe buy? an under tail exhaust system?
next;
any suggestions on the best site(s) for 06 Busa accessories, maybe best prices with larger selection/inventory?
i am not looking to go too crazy, but maybe lower it, change the lights, add an LED light kit, etc.
next;
the Busa has about 8200miles, any suggestions as far as maintenance or upkeep that i as a do-it-yourself'er can do aside from change the oil (which seller said was done couple hundred miles ago)?
finally;
any known issues or common problems i should be enlightened too, especially those that are of safety concerns, for this 2006 Busa would definitely be beneficial information to me.
looking forward to being part of this community, and thank you very much in advance for any help/guidance/direction provided. i'd be most grateful!
