Had a great ride today almost 300 miles. The last exit before getting off at the house I come into the ramp pretty hot, apply a little break and tried to downshift.. Missed the shift lever, tried again, and missed. Look down and there it is haning by the linkage, what the hell??? I know the Kawi's vibrate apart but not the Busa. I also had the air box mounting bolt work loose but it did not fall out because of the gas tank. On my way to get a split ring plier and a big a@@ bottle of Loctite...

Mine did the same thing. I know how "where the heck is the shift lever?" feels. A liitle loctite mine's been fine ever since. The shift lever bolt tightening dude at Suzuki must of had things other than work on his mind.....
