Thanks for any info!

- Start date
That was the original '99 model.
+1 or was this a joke?
gotta love the copper
You guys are fast!
No, not a joke, I really like this color and was wondering if they were sold here in the US at all. Didn't see it on the Suzuki site for model years 2004/5/6.
Don't think I'll want to get the 1999 model though, if I get a used one I'd rather get a 2004 or 2005...
Thanks for the replies, much appreciated!

Jan,
A lot of the beauty of the Busa is that it hasn't changed much in the last 7 years. The copper was the original and a lot of people still think it is the best looking one. One item of significance is that in 2000, there was agreement between Honda, Kawasaki and Suzuki to keep bikes restricted to 186 MPH via a rev limiter. So, all '01's and newer are restricted. I hadn't seen you before, so welcome. Good luck with your search. BTW, there are several Busas for sale here on the boards......

GTG, like Pappy said thats one of the fast ones.
Thanks mc mustang! Yes, I'm new, lurking and asking questions..
1999 is 6 years old though, are they still OK? And how much would I pay for that? I'm still debating if I would want to buy used, or go for a new but (hopefully) discounted 2005. I'll certainly check what's for sale on this board though...
High top speed is nice but here in the US I'd be afraid to try it out anyway (unless it's during a track day???), too many cops! Back in the Netherlands I kinda knew where I could go fast, and even then they got me a few times!

I love the 05 LE, but for second the 99 copper is my choice.

You can expect to pay about $ 6,000 for a 99/2000 Busa
