Currently +2 rear and debating -1 front for some extra pep once in a while. Easy enough to swap sprockets.
Anyone run it on a daily rider?

Hi. I will be running +3 front and -6 rear. But not on the street. +1 front +2 to 4 rear but I will have to see what I go through the traps at to see what is bestI have not done it on a Busa but I had it on my ZRX. It raised the rpm to same mph by about 700 rpm. Made the Rex a bullet in the twisties. Hit them in third gear and never ever shift up to any speed you could expect on the street. Added bonus was same chain length. Down side was chain adjuster marks were no longer useful.
It was however a bit noisier on the highway at 75/80
I did not loose any top end because the lack of areodynamics would stop me before the engine got to max revs
All that said unless you really think you need more acceleration with an even more wheelie prone bike I'm not sure it is the best idea. Not for me at least
Yeah I think the stock gearing is 17/40 right??
A while back I did that switch and changed to a 16/42. It was fun for a while and I definitely noticed a difference but you lose top speed and I didn’t like the way it rode overtime. Don’t get me wrong it was fun @ 1st but I grew tired of it and Eventually switched back to stock configuration
