i have a busa that keeps shutin off . i put a new fuel filter in today. and ran it at idle but once it warmed up it shut off. i waited bout 2 -5 minutes and it started up again then it shut off. so once it warms it will not start it turns over but acts like its not getting gas .. oh and i just put new plugs in . it doesnt over heat. someone help me please.:please:
 
my bike did the same exact thing. it was overloading the cylinders and fouling the plugs. too much fuel. had to get my injectors cleaned. bike ran perfect afterwards.
 
If this is the same 1purpleheart I think it is, it turned out to be a fuel pump which he already replaced.:beerchug:
 
My 2000 Busa will ride all day ,but in city traffic ,red lights the coils get hot then it when the temp gauge is half way shuts off if left to cool of 25-35 min it will start get her up to speed it runs all day ???any help would be greatly appreciated

Howdy, even though this thread is from 2009 someone will be along to help out.

How do you know the coils are getting hot? You'd have to lift the tank and check them as they are stick coils.

Does it shut off each time you get into traffic and it gets hot? Temp gauge going half way isn't overheating.

When was the last time the coolant was changed?
Have you thought of running "Engine Ice?"
Do you have the second fan mod?
Is the fan you have kicking on?

I'm in Australia at the moment we are in our winter when it's cold like now or it's raining she runs all day and when during its last freak out I pulled a coil it nearly gave me blisters...they are 22 years old but once cool they sparked again ,....so I ordered a new set at a jaw dropping price waiting for them to arrive....
 
Sorry I'll get better at this posting stuff...I know the coils are overheating because I pulled the number one coil and I near got blisters on my hand....bike gets to operating temp( half way on temp gauge..) and it misses,pops (sometimes) feels like plugs are fouling and crank engine (no spark)?...Wait have a beer or 3 and like magic spark....(stinking stick coils)....but I must give a shout out to Suzuki you could have plugged the diagnostic computer in that would have taken 10 minutes and even if youse didn't have the time to fix it ....you could have helped a brother out ...not to mention try and charge $800 for coils I bought of e-bay for $100 , ignition barrel and switch $286, battery $125 engine temp sender $120
Sorry guys for venting....It was my first week of ownership what a week

Yeah.. you bought a 22 year old bike and yes, it’s going to have problems.
I work at a Suzuki dealership and I’ll give you a tip re dealerships, first and foremost they are in business to make money, and as much as they can squeeze out of their customers, sad but true.
Secondly, the mechanics are usually good and well versed in all things Suzuki, but they don’t have a magic wand and plugging in the monitor to a bike can only tell you so much, it only gives clues as to what is failing. The mechanics experience is the real deciding factor here.
I have a ‘99 model Busa and have a long list of repairs and upgrades since I took ownership of it 8 years ago.
In general, bikes don’t get kept up to the maintenance level that they really need. Most owners often can’t afford to constantly fit new parts and keep on top of the whole thing, replacing stuff BEFORE it fails. After all, bikes are usually toys for big boys, and toys can lie around unloved and unused for long periods.
My advice to you is to find a bike workshop that specialise in sports bikes and especially Suzukis, they will be interested in your Busa way more than any dealership would be. And always ask for a prioritised list of essential work that needs doing, to bring your bike up to a good safe condition.
Keep posting and let us all know how it’s going for ya, oh and welcome to Hayabusa heaven too!

Thanks for all the help appreciate all the suggestions (1)....all it took was a $5 bucket some garden hose and fuel pump specks to work out the problem ...(why have flash codes ) you would think if the fuel pump didn't supuply the correct delivery pressure and or volume I the would make be itself
