How about $284.95 for the set front and back?

That's with the 190/50 rear, but the 55 can't be much different.

PS... If you look ahead of me in the pic, you can see Vman a couple turns ahead.

Dragged my footpeg curb fealer at the gap. No knee sliders to put the knee down but definetly could have touched the ground with it.

(Charlesbusa @ Dec. 03 2006,19:37) Is your front stock, have you made any mods there??
No spring change up front yet, I do have the spring pre-loaders run all the way down and the comp/reb settings tweaked. Rear spring is stock but preloaded 3 additional turns. Rear comp/reb tweaked.

I'm wearing the tire to the arrow on both sides but I haven't drug my knee yet. Think I'm going to raise the rear. My weight is also around 165, and I getting the Busa way over. Suspension feels fine, so we'll keep playing with it until we get it right.

Your busa has a low seat height making it quite easy to put your knee down. If you are dragging your pegs and still can't reach the ground with your knee, then I would work on body position.

Try hanging off your bike in a corner, get your buddy to snap a photo. Most guys think they are hanging off the bike until they see a photo of themselves. A roundabout is a great place to practice putting your knee down. Slow speed and good pavement with no oncoming traffic, perfect.

Never had a knee down (no pucks) but I have scraped the pegs a few times. Just have to find a good corner and trust your tires.
