Ok so i'm new to the forum and hoping to take advantage of the combined wisdom of all ye Busa connoisseurs.
I've just bought an 08 Busa, and I need to make some mods to make her more comfortable as I'm on and off the bike all day every day travelling between jobs on average 30-40 min rides. I'm about 200lbs and 6'4" so I'm finding the position a little too cramped for the longer or slower city riding, with some pressure through the wrists and low back, and a bit of discomfort in the neck and upper back from keeping the head up looking forward. Nothing to stop me riding this beaut but I'd like it a bit more ergonomically correct for my size! Now I've been reading a lot and it seems the Helibars are a popular choice, and theres also mention of Genamr risers? I've also heard things like Buell rearsets, different seat and lowering the rear. Basically I'm looking at making this as comfortable as possible for the taller gentleman, within a reasonable budget as buying the busa has left the wallet very light! So looking for any advice on how to make it better suited to me from guys of a similar size, and any other input is very welcome!
Thanks guys nd gals.
This looks like a fantastic site.
