Might want to watch out for a Mclaren but seeing as there arent more than a hundred or so in the US I dont think you have to worry too much

Not to mention the high 6 figure price tag of a McLaren F1.. you just can't get more bang for your buck than a 'busa.

nuh uh!! nu uh!!! The KAWASAKI ZX-12R is faster than the Hayabusa. 
Okay, I'm kidding. Sort of. The 12R is like .10 slower in 90 % of the tests that go on. Busa nudges it with engine size and aerodynamics. Both bikes are highly respectable and capable. Yes, the Mclaren F1 is faster, impossible to get, but as fast or faster and production. So if a 10K busa is too white-trash for you, here ya go:

Everyone always wants to know what is fastest...truth is the Busa is the right peice of equipment.This with a rider that is capable of riding it to its full potential will be hard for anything to beat.50% of the product is the rider or driver.I personally will never stop learning.Just mho

Truer words were never typed. I have out ridden people on a 750 Kat that should have been able to blow my rubbers off. Likewise I have had to eat humble pie from better riders than myself. I'd say ability makes the wheels go round!
Ride Safe!
Just remember that a crappy rider on a Busa can still make a better rider on slower equipment fade once the road is straight...
Yep on a Busa, any half conscious knuckle draggin mouthbreather can be fast in a straight line. It's them curves and little things like cars that get in the way...
I agree though you get a good rider on a Busa and I think it would be just about unbeatable, so long as the road isn't really tight.
Which reminds me, I need to get myself to a track school for a weekend of fun...I think I qualify right now in the "Barely Good" rider catagory... Competant, Safe, Experianced, but really needs to work on being smooth and fast in the twisties...and those Busa Spooky slow speed U-turns... Never had a problem before...
That's it in a nutshell...Out the box the Busa is hard to deal with...There are so many bikes that are close that with an unknown mod, rider weight/experience you can still get your lunch handed to you even if your rolling a Busa...Tuck and ride it like you stole it...just remember thier is always something faster out there or soon to be ......just when you think you are the fastest some guy on a turbo gsxr 1000 will blow past you
Or a thousand+ horse, low 8 second pro street car.......not production but they are out there......beware the rear tire that's 20" wide.just remember thier is always something faster out there or soon to be ......just when you think you are the fastest some guy on a turbo gsxr 1000 will blow past you
Yeah BOSS HOSS Also comes with with a big block if you want, but uh, I do not think there is a person out there who would seriously consider making a high speed run on one of this goofy assed things...Lesse 1500lbs, Longer than a VW Bug, Primative suspension and controls...Chassis that wraps itself around the torque of the V-8...Nope Busa Faster all day in all conditions IMO... Though the BOSS might take you across the street as will a good number of Big Modified Twins...

two things bro:
1. you only see super exotics on paper....paper is pretty slow
2. the semi-exotics that you do see, who will actually make a go at you....like say a viper...will melt down in no time flat when pushed to the limit, brakes go first, then rods and rings, you name it...a busa will run all day long sliding throught the corners at redline....remember the comparo schwantz did a year or two ago???
