hey, second post...cool!!!

I got my new '02 Blue and Black Busa on Jan 31st here in Indy. Funny story... I could not locate the odometer on the bike at first. There was a spot for the miles, but it only said "1". Sh**t I then realized I have never owned a new bike before. :-) (I have owned 7 or 8 previous, but never brand spanking new)

Anyhow, the odometer is up to "6" now as anyone from the midwest can tell you it has not stopped snowing since... since Jan 31st when I got the bike! ...one tough and torturous winter.

Hey IndyDave, Welcome to the board. Hopefully the snow will stop and you can get that Busa out where it belongs.

Your doing better than me, still waiting on the title, I think I have actually put negative mileage on mine, since I backed it down the driveway into the garage

Should get the title this week, now if the snow will melt.......

Thanks guys,

My last sportbike was an '84 Ninja 900. I can't compare the new Busa to this, even though that ninja was a dream come true at one time.

This new Busa is a dream come true-CUBED.

...never thought I'd be shopping for blue colored carbon fiber gloves either. I love it!!!

Yes that was a sweet bike. I thought that thing was going to leave the planet at 6000rpm. The bike would not wheelie on a throttle goose. Too heavy on the front end. Good for leaving corvettes in the dust though....

Only complaint with that ninja was that after 15 minutes in the saddle, I used to get a big pain in my back between shoulder blades. Made a two hour ride really a trial. I'm hoping the Busa doesn't affect me the same way.

You will be very comfy on the Busa i am sure. You will be thinking of those Ninjas as practice food in the future.
