NEW FEATURES for 2002 per Suzuki
-New, lightweight 32-bit ECM for fast EFI and ignition processing speed, plus longer spark duration for more efficient combustion. (this seems to be worthwhile)
-New, lighter weight generator rotor. (nice but...)
-Polished stainless steel exhaust pipe for improved appearance. (I thought this was a +, don't see why you would spend 100's to gain a few more HP's [unless for an even better sound] on a new Busa unless you could really use the extra HP's--I can't at this point.)
-Bolt on, stainless-steel tie-down hooks (previously welded to sub-frame). (mute change)
But there does seem to be some issues to improve on 1) always better components and less weight, 2) fix vibration at 4-5k rpm [I have a little of a robotics EE R&D background--while harmonics and rotation issues are real--the "no way to get rid of vibration" argument sounds more like factory/shop excuses], 3) correct fan/overheating probs, 4) change over some plastics to carbon fiber [as on gsxr 750/1000], 5) delimit the beauty and return to the 220 mph speedo to remain undisputed stock speed king [However, not so sure that I would like a change to the digital speedo]. Yeah, I know what you may be thinkin' about now--don't wait for Suzuki to modify--modify it to my own tastes. This may be a real good idea. Waiting bites! Maybe it's my obsessive-compulsive side...
