That's it! I couldn't remember what it was called. Now that I'm thinking about it. Didn't it start when 750's were still the superbikes and this was primarily, after a couple of years all the 1000cc bikes? It should changed how it did with the 1000's becoming superbikes but that class was open to wild stuff. Busas, ZX-12s, Blackbirds, hell why not a heavily modified V-Max? That would've been fun to watch.
I was hopeful about that unlimited series. I thought it would lead to experimentation with larger rims and tires, and that with some huge rolling Donuts the Hayabusa and larger bikes could compete with the little liter bikes that really were just too small for me. But physics didn't let the market expand that way, oh well. That Hayabusa did get some even more aerodynamic body work, and did hit 200 mph on some of the straits on American tracks, and I'm pretty sure you could have bought the body work, but it was really expensive. Back closer to topic though, that paint job was also some kind of trick aluminum based paint and gave it a really cool metallic look. I think I saw it at Sears point, but it could have been the earlier blue paint job.

I am thinking about de-branding the whole thing save the Kanji. Which I would be interested in replacing with one cut from black reflective film if anyone can do that?
I CAN DO THAT! If interested reach out!

That's a sharp looking bike........

I'll bet it turns heads.....
Thank you. It gives me something to focus on aside from the daily mundane stuff.
I’ve owned it one year and make a change here and there over time as my budget allows.
This started as a kid with my bicycles, I’ve never outgrown it i suppose .

Below is my first attempt at creating my own decals. I used the cheap Dollar Tree vinyl to see how it came out before I use my expensive vinyl.

I will be making a full set of decals and once installed on bike will upload a pic. Deciding if I want all the lettering on bike to be all Dark gray reflective or a combination of Satin Metallic Red & the reflective gray. The Satin Metallic matches the fairings red parts better than my current red chrome decals).

May I know where you got those wheel decals from ?
I got them this place. I had them on a BMW S1000RR and they were great so when the Busa came along I went with the same company.
Very good quality.
Here’s what I learned-
Be sure to clean the wheels very well. I used brake cleaner.
Before you start applying the stickers look at the wheel for a while and think about where to put them and how they will be spaced. They come with instructions and there are a couple of videos on YouTube.
I used my finger to apply and smooth out any bubbles.
Don’t worry if the spacing is off a little bit when you’re done. No one will see it.
