Hello all! I just purchased my first Hayabusa this past Tuesday. It' s a blue `07, that had 4600 miles on it, picked it up for $6,500. I was looking at a new GSX-R 750, but then I was told about this bike by a friend of mine last Friday night. It was sitting on a car lot that her dad owns, and they were really ready to get rid of it. Monday I went look at it, filled out my credit app, Tuesday, I got the message that I was approved. Picked it up Tuesday, and put 200+ miles on it since. I' m absolutely loving it, and especially in this shade of blue. I' ve already got like a half dozen chicks wanting to ride it, including one chick I was trying to hook up with, until she hooked up with someone else. I see my sex life rapidly improving in the future!
Now, I know I' ll get flamed for this, as I have in other threads I' ve started on other forums, for my bike selection. I am a new rider, and know almost nothing about bikes. I' ve heard it continuously that sport bikes are not good starter bikes. I know it' s completely stupid and irresponsible of me to buy a Busa for a starter. I' ve heard it all already, so please guys, no lectures! lease: First of all, I can' t have an ugly ride. I like sporty, clean, and agressive looking rides, couldn' t be seen on a moped or in a Yugo. I love the appearance and performance of sports/performance cars, and if I were had the opportunity to buy a Lamborghini, I' m not going to buy a Civic to "work my way up." That' s just not how I do things. Call it stupid or whatever, but I don' t buy a vehicle, just to sell it later to buy something else. Not my idea of a financially smart option, considering depreciation. So yes, I bought the most badass production bike on the planet, because of it' s awesome performance, and because I love the looks of it. I couldn't pass up the deal I got on it, and all the paperwork has been done. The only thing left to do, is pay off the loan!
I' m not being arrogant, with my bike. I' m not rushing my riding ability. I am taking my time to learn how to control the bike, and to be a smart and safe rider. I will be taking the MSF course soon, to further enhance my knowledge of riding, and hope to enjoy years of riding my beloved Busa!
