I've made some mods to the busa that I have been talked about here, but I thought some might be interested in seeing;
-- Throttle Meister - polished version, works well, was relatively easy install, had to drill out one of the original screws though.
-- Givi tank bag - very handy, doesn't get in the way, good quality.
-- Helibars - Moderately easy to install, however had to reroute the fast idle cable, as described in intallation instructions, also had to cut a cable hanger to give some slack to the cable harnesses going to each set of bar end switches which was not described in the instructions.
-- Pyramid double bubble windscreen - very good quality, fit very well, easy to install. For anyone who hasn't removed the windscreen, the two fasteners are expanding bushings that need to be fully extracted once the screws are removed. I had ordered a light smoke, but I'm of the opinion I got a dark smoke.
This screen gives taller riders a much better view of the instrument panel and is fits well with the lines of the bike.
-- Speedo Healer - What I like about this one is that it is very compact and can fit right beside the tool kit. It has a hole passing through it that can be used to fasten it down to the fender well. Nice clean installation. It comes with a jumper header that bypass the unit if desired. I haven't calibrated it yet. I'm planning on putting on a new back tire first.
Try to post some pics.

Some of the years have black mids, my 01 does.

You can swap, paint, or powder coat.
