Hi guys - got her home, went for a ride and took some pics. Greg at HPC - who did an amazing job - has posted build pics but this is the finished product. Only thing I did not get installed Saturday was the throttlemeister. I recapped all the mods below. Put an easy 300 miles on this past weekend and looking forward to more aggressive canyon riding this weekend. Used to own a zx14 - brocks smeg, forged alum wheels, custom map, ohlins, etc. and thought I would give some initial impressions. Busa seems to handle better - more to come on this, shifts much smoother and power delivery is also smoother. No choppiness at all on Busa. Braking is superb but since I did significant upgrades, hard to compare to the very good brakes on the zx14. Looks of course are subjective, needless to say, Busa wins here. With my mods to the bars and pegs - did the same ones to the zx14, ergonomics are very comparable. Both bikes are wicked fast, IMO the edge goes to the better rider.
