Coming home today from work at 1600hrs. Trying to beat the rain. Heading east on Courtney Campbell Causeway. 3 lanes wide. I'm in the middle lane banked over to the right past 45 degrees. I was still being pushed left!!! Busa was steady as a rock tho! Don't think I've ever rolled over that far on a straight before. And not too many times around corners either. What a great bike!

:biggrin: :thumbsup: :cool:

I work from an office off the Causeway. I'm not down Cypress much since both the wife & Brother inlaw changed jobs.

Yup the Busa didn't even seem to notice the lean. Gives you an idea how far she'd go in corners. Very confidence inspiring! I was kinda wondering how I was going to turn right at the end of the causeway tho.
