[fstbusa]

absolutly gorgeous!! dont get that colour in the uk only on the gixer thou.
think the wheels need polishing and painting the same colour as bike though?

really does look sexy.

Sweet , hows the handling on the road now .. turning ,ride ,ect...

 

[fstbusa]

the front turns in faster....I turn the bars and the front swings around faster....doesn't seem to bother me though.....no high speed(140mph) stability problems that I can tell. Haven't been any faster yet.

Looks really great. I am planning on dropping 2 in. in back also. Do you have plenty of room under the fender for bumps or riding double?

 

[fstbusa]

I actually haven't ridden double on it since its been lowered...bumps aren't a problem when single riding....I'll have to go grab a a passenger and let ya know.

 

[VaBusa]

I dropped my Busa 2 inches front and rear...only problem I've experienced is that the Busa doesn't travel well over speed bumps now...

Otherwise, it's the same...but, looks better with that low profile!

Nice bike fstbusa...

 

[fstbusa]

sweeeet....good deal....I have the same problem....just gotta take the bumps alittle slower and I LOVE the low mean profile that it has now....KICKASS!!!!

new guy here =). anyways im planning on getting a busa soon and my first mod is going to be to lower it. i know there are links for the rear and straps for the front. which brands did you use and is there any other way to lower the front without using straps? also are straps safe for everyday riding on the streets?

Looks Awesome FST,
Wish I could lower mine but I ride over speed bumps every day and already bottom if I am not careful! Bottom for sure if I have a passanger!

BTW Busa Cee, Welcome to the board!

 

[fstbusa]

you got it Busa_Cee.  If you want it dropped permanently get reaper risers, genMar risers, or a new triple tree.

Its up to you.  Reapers are definitely the cheapest route by far.

reapers($35):  http://www.racingreaper.dragbikecentral.com/catalog.html

GenMar($150): http://www.zianet.com/GenMar
you can find new triple trees everywhere....
