Hello everyone!!! I recently got back into bikes after a 15 year hiatus. I looked around, but not enough, and bought a Yamaha FJR1300 sport tour. I really like this bike but I saw a busa one day and became intrigued with it. And, as you know, once you get the busa on your mind you just gotta have one.

I came across this forum and I have been reading it daily for about 2 months. I have enjoyed reading it and all of you seem very nice and helpful. I just came across a 04 blue/silver with just 48 miles on it. He basically rode it home from the dealer and parked it in his garage. Some things came up and he decided to sell it for a real good price. So I gladly took it off his hands and should get it Monday or Tuesday. Boy, I am excited!!!!

However, I am getting lots of grief from my collages such as "have I lost my mind, etc?" Since I am an Orthopaedic Surgeon and unfortunately spend time putting people back together after crashes, they wonder why I would get a motorcycle. I understand that, yet I do love motorcycles and everything that goes with the experience (except for the crashes of course).

This forum has been instrumental in my decision to get a busa and I thank you. I look forward to discussing things with you as I am sure I will have a lot of questions.

Some people go thru life and think they have lived. Then they get a HAYABUSA and wonder what the hell was I thinking before!

I had a 10 year laps in riding, so I know how you feel. As an Orthopedic Surgeon you know the dangers of the sport. Just wear your gear and ride safe, but do get out there and have some fun. That's what it's all about.

Like you, I just recently got back into biking after about 15 years. Last year I bought a VSTROM 1000, but it just didn't have the power I was lookin' for. Now I've got it!

I like the Busa a little bit more every time I ride it - I hope you do too!

They didn't give you a ration of crap about riding an FJR but the busa brought on the criticism? Shows you what they know about bikes, the Fijjer is no slowpoke.

Glad to have you here. The busa makes a fine mount for we, ahem, mature guys.

Hi "Ya'll"

Welcome to the wonderful world of the Hayabusa! If you truly love motorcycles, you won't be sorry about the busa purchase. However, we do need a photo of you and your proud possession. We need to know if you are a shaggy headed hippy with beads and a nose ring who really rides a harley, or if you really are that pillar in your community who happens to enjoy bikes
