08 MSRP = $11,999
09 MSRP = $12,499
Somebody should tell the powers-that-be over there at headquarters that the USA is in a recession! BUMMER![/QUOTE]
It'll be interesting to see if our economic 'flushing' will affect the number of 'busas sold in the US for '09.
I think it unlikely.

If you wait until January then you can get either one for 11k or less
what is a set valve? ???
It's basically a butterfly valve in the collector portion of the header that is partially closed at lower RPMs It's supposed to help with torque down low then open up for full flow at high RPM. Used on many GSXR's, it seems to reduce the noise more than anything else. But a primary tube designed to flow enough at 15000 RPM us likely too big for good scavaging velocity down low and this could help broaden or change the effect of the returning wave.

I have a stupid question here.
When a dealer says their price is $xxx out the door - does that mean it is inclusive of local sales tax?
A local dealer in Santa Clara, CA quoted me over the phone: $13K out the door for 08 Busa.
I was thinking of trading my 06 LE with a Gen2.

I got mine for 10.8 before TT&L, after TT&L around 11.8.
Also, that set valve, are you sure it is actually on the 09? I severely doubt it because their specs sheet is for the B-King (see a couple posts i made in the 200 rear tire size thread). Maybe the B King has one (can someone chime in on that?) but i doubt the busa has one.

Dont settle for that, OTD Cycle Sports quoted me $11,999 OTD in Auburn California.
I ordered an 09 yesterday, but it was an informal transaction, at best, since my dealer doesn't even have the proper ordering forms available yet.
Does anyone know for sure when the last of the 08s crossed the assembly line? Why I ask is that I'd buy a "crate fresh" 08 if I could find one in the orange/black color. I've seen them on dealership floors but I'm pretty anal about my bikes, always deal in cash and fresh out of the crate with "0" miles on the clock, no test rides allowed by the set up guys. And those last off the assembly line would more than likely have that ignition wiring recall problem of earlier units corrected.
Oh well..............if I have to wait until Nov or Dec, no biggie, our riding season is all but shot for this year anyway.

I got my 08 for 10.9k OTD...
Now if the bike was 2 years old in a crate, yea might worry about lube or seals...
