Hi Folks,
I've been riding and racing since I was a kid, but never got around to owning a Hayabusa until last week. I have a ZX-14 that I use(d) for the strip, but after customizing the hell out of it, I pretty much just want it to be a show queen. My goal was to find a 'beater' for the strip but after seeing my Hayabusa for sale online, I couldn't resist. She's a 2006 w/ 1,285 miles, absolute showroom condition - the only mod being a throttle meister - which I totally love! I don't think she's quite as fast as my '14, but I still appreciate her for being stock, strong, and able to corner! Another thing I've always dug about the 'busa is the flake in the stock paint - mine has some crazy green that flickers in the grey (and the blue has flake as well). Best factory paint I've had on any of my bikes (although my FJR has a pretty nice factory job also). The only thing bugging me thus far is the ridiculous mud flap - so I'm looking for a replacement undertail. Any ideas or other 'must have' suggestions appreciated. No, it isn't a Gen II, a ZX-14 - or my last Suzuki - an '06 Gixxer Thou - but it is VERY special to me . . . my beautiful and first - HAYABUSA!
