First Hayabusa, 2024 with zero miles. This forum has been a great source so far, thanks to everyone that contributes.
I bought the bike on Friday. Yesterday put the r&r sliders, tail tidy, and tank pads on.
I attempted the r&g pod, and after about 3 hours I came to grips with the realization that this is not a skill set I have. I will see what the pro’s quote me.
I also tried to add the r&g fork slider, but the spindle seems to be too long as the threads stick out beyond the sliders on both sides. I sent r&g and twisted throttle an email.
A few other r&g bits were backordered and will get put on when in.
Planned upgrades
I will go with Brock’s CT 16” when I can find the difference between standard and quiet core.
Looking at 2wdw for flash.
Core moto steel lines and wheel
Lithium battery
Undecided items
Brake pads (on my last bike braided lines and versah rjl pads were great, but I don’t see these pads for the busa)
Lighter rotors
Helibar riser
Heated grips
Windscreen (zero gravity db or Suzuki touring)
I appreciate any input on things I should be considering.
Thanks!
Edited with rider upgrades planned for 2025
American super camp in April
California Superbike in May
