I may get a nice bonus this year and rather than do mods....(I think my busa is quite fast in its stock mode) I was thinking of hiring a Busa mechanic for a day long or weekend long "consulting" job to teach me how to work on a Hayabusa.
I can do the easy stuff like get the left and right fairings off and change the oil and filters. But am unable to do some of the things you wrench-gifted types do...like throttle body adjustments, finding and detecting faulty Starter Interlock Relays and Tilt sensors....yikes....I'd blow my seabiscuit up in no time. I'm not talking really advanced stuff but definitely above the beginners level.
So what do you folks think? $750 CASH for a day long tutorial? Is this stupid? Would any mechanic take me up on such an offer? He'd have to bring his own tools....
Am I insane? I just hear so many horror stories from you guys/gals...I'd love to learn to work on my bike myself but need a tutor...kind of like a personal trainer.
