The grab bar acts as a lever to help manage the weight of the bike when you need to hold it from the rear. That makes it much easier to hold the bike vertical when putting it on the rear spool stand.
You have a choice: Like it, or don't like it. This topic has been beat to death over the past 9 years that the Busa has been sold in the U.S. Please move on, or get a freaking life.

we have a winner! It's comes down to not wanting to waste time and just being able to ride.

the so-called attraction of the grab-rail/seat hump mod????
for me the grab rail is a necessity when carrying a pillion but when I'm solo I want to get rid of it fast and keep the lines clean. Why on earth you would want to incorporate the grab rail when the hump is installed is just plain yuk
It can't even have any purpose other than completely ruining the bike's appearance.
I mean one or the other but both???

When putting my bike on the rear stand, I take the hump off and use the lock bracket the hump locks in to to pull the bike on the stand.

i agree one or the other but not both
I have the mod, but I don't have the OEM grab rail. The grab rail that I have is a two piece that has about a four-six inch gab; the handle doesn't go all the way around like a one piece. It also has the Hayabusa Kanji engraved. I leave the handles on for the reasons mentioned above. Also, I'm tired of spending time to change it out if I have to ride with someone or throw some saddle bags on. I use them to put my Busa in the garage, too. It fits into a semi-tight corner and I sometimes have to lift the back end to slide the Busa into the corner properly. Having the grab rail availible at all times can be a nice difference once you get used to using it all the time. I think it looks good.

Um... the lady friend rides with me 3 to 4 times a week and no way am I leaving a 400 dollar corbin with b/rest on when I go to work everyday. Also have the center stand mounted. My size 7.5 can barely get the bike up with the grab rail, no way with out it.
Function man, all about function.
No show bike here, but I do respect the "each to there own" statement
