New Bike Pics....

[Crawlin]

I just like the bike. not really caring what others say, but everything has been positive. LOTS of stares. Even the other bike guys have said beautiful bike as I was cruising alone last night.

I do gotta say, I miss the hell out of riding. It was always something that helped calm things down because you had to be focused on all the other assholes around you. Makes all the shittiness of the day go away.

So here's the pics... Couple of things I want to do to it. Want to put the other rotor/caliper back on the front since previous owner did the swingle rotor conversion. I just don't feel comfortable street riding it like that since I already had an issue with hauling the bike down from a higher speed. The rear tire has NO bite whatsoever, so trying to find out what may work the best. Probably do a new front tire at the same time. I'm debating whether to leave the front all black, or at the very least just get the black chrome hayabusa logo for the front fairings to match the "suzuki" on the tank and the "gsx1300r" on the back tail. What do you guys think?

how much of a stretch is that looks clean kinda weird having two different colored wheels i say black it all out lol thats just me tho and what i'm doing wish mine had the black frame like that

[*SNOOP*]

Very nice bike, I am a 100% Busa owner!!!!!! As for the tire, I went with the Shinko 005 for both of my Busa's....

[Cutlass Queen]

Like I've previously stated ....that bike is gorgeous :drool:

btw: 2000 Posts now :banana

[lilws6]

whoop whoop! lol

[pOrk]

Shinkos are what the busa guys run because they are a good straight line track tire. If you want a good all around tire, go with a Diablo Super Corsa 3 or Dunlop Qualifier.

Nice looking bike Chris, are you going to leave it slammed or bring it back to stock height? You will like how it handles much better at stock height. I like it all black :)

[jbiscuit]

looks hot! Black out that rear wheel and don't put any more decals or anything on it! I think its perfect Chris! Good score!

Shinko 003 (Ultra-Soft) would be the track tire, Shinko 005 is the all around tire.

i have the perfect decal for it
:D

I'm thinking about doing the black rear wheel. Would like kinda cool all blacked out. When I get my adjustable rear sets, those will be an anodized black instead of the chrome ones on there now.

I'm gonna leave it slammed like it is. I did buy it to go drag racing with more so than corner carving. Been there done that with my old '97 750 gixxer. I was amazed at how well the bike did handle for how it is set up. Always room for improvement obviously.

the stretch is just about 4-5". so nothing major. if i went any longer, than I'd have to buy the tail pieces to match, and i don't feel like spending money on that part yet.

The bike does look better in person. Even with the chrome wheel. it's all braided line for clutch/brakes. just the exhaust and the velocity stacks and airbox mod. have to look into the power commander or something else along those lines for tuning. runs really well as it is. no hiccups or stalls or hard starts. 2nd gear roll on was SAWEET. did my first 1st gear roll on to a quick half throttle and the thing just started spinning, haha.

i needed to talk to you about a patch for a jacket ;)

funny thing about the height, when i get ON it, it's ******* LOW!!! if i try and click second on a left hand turn from a stop light, my toe drags. if i hit any of the little bumps on the street, that under fairing part bounces and hits the street, hahah

[Breecher_7]

Ahhh.... Here we go...

First, Dump the swingarm extension, its doing nothing but hurting the bikes handleing.

Second, Get it back up to factory height and have me tune the suspension, I bet it corners like a turd right now.

Third, When you dump the extension do not forget to get new sprockets as well as a new chain. If you run just a new chain it will wear unevenly with worn sprockets.

And as far as the single caliper conversion.... :rolf

Fourth, get a GPR stabilizer for it.

Have fun, keep it right side up.

bring the bike by tonite so i can check it out:thumbsup

[Crawlin]

hahaha, stabilizer is on the way.

not really concerned with ultimate corner handling ability at this point. just concentrating on actually being ON the bike

[Crawlin]

work till 9pm. so probably not tonight. work till 6pm tomorrow so will probably swing by then.

Says the king of the chicken strips....... :rolf

Yet another bike wasted....... :stare

[Crawlin]

it's ok. it's my bike so i don't mind :) if i'm the king of chicken stripes, then the previous owner was Mr Galaxy, hahahahhaa

[GRNDNL]

Nice.........:thumbsup


For sale yet?....:chair:

[Breecher_7]

Mr. Galaxy huh? Tires dead flat in the middle? :rolf

[Crawlin]

might explain their crappiness, hahahahaha

if you looked at 'em JUUUUUUST right, they looked like a trapezoid, hahahaha

[GinoRin]

Looks good, Chris. I'd put the black chrome decals back on it or take all the other ones off...

Sweet Bike tho :thumbsup

[Josepy]

looks great. slap a turbo on her.

[Breecher_7]

looks great. slap a turbo on her.

I agree, if your gonna have worthless, you might as well have 300hp worth of worthless....... :thumbsup

[juicedimpss]

I agree, if your gonna have worthless, you might as well have 300hp worth of worthless....... :thumbsup

i would like to see the streets around here that support hard cornering.
:rolf

[Breecher_7]

i would like to see the streets around here that support hard cornering.
:rolf

There are none..... Period. Even what we have of "twisties" are garbage.

But between RA and Blackhawk, there are plenty of places to give bikes hell.

I hardly EVER ride on the street anymore.

[Crawlin]

you might as well have 300hp worth of worthless....... :thumbsup

that was the ultimate goal :) hahaha

i don't have the freedom to visit those track days with my schedule :(

[1fast2litre]

looks hott chris .....keep it all black :headbang

[pOrk]

Tony, you think the roads are bad here? Wisconsin has some of the best roads in the midwest. You want bad, go to Florida. Flat and straight, straight and flat. Thats it.

[Flicktitty]

that thing looks badass! if you were gonna do decals on it i would have a decal shop do the factory decals in a flat/matte black that would look pretty mean. But yeah love the all black, be careful outthere.

[Prince Valiant]

Looks good chris...be careful too.

Honestly, that's one bike I'd never even begin to test the limits of...it'd just be a bad-ass cruiser b/w my legs.

[Crawlin]

I guess maybe because i've ridden for a good number of years and did ALOT of stupid stuff, that because i treat this one with respect, it doesn't seem too bad. yes, if you give it hell, it'll lay a patch like a turbo car when it comes on. it's all in the wrist responsibility :)

i like that matte black idea!!! thanks Flickster!

[scaleracer]

that looks awesome! all black! :drool: :shades

[WickedSix]

It looks damn good chris and MUCH better in person and yah I saw the single front rotor and did a double take.... total WTF?!?!?!? thats alot of bike to haul down with one lil rotor

if you go with the black busa decal I say black anodize the rear wheel and get a front to match I think it'd look smokin like that :thumbsup

[Mudd Runner]

looks f'in bad a** chris

[nismodave]

Nice bike!!

thanks man! when we all left i had to let the cop go ahead of me because there is no plate bracket on the bike, hahaha.

i REALLY want to black chrome the wheels, but that's some $$$$

[pOrk]

I can powder coat that rear wheel for yah ;-)

[T-Bag]

Have fun and stay safe on it, those things really do haul some ass. We should get a BCM cruise going on soon

[Crawlin]

I'm down for that.

Pork, how long does it take? When I do the new rear tire, I probably will take you up on that.

[Reverend Cooper]

Chris that bike looks great,I wanna stand that thing up

[WilliamZ]

Mmmm black chrome wheels! That would be nice. Looks good, Yea I agree it needs that other rotor. You are going to need that extended arm on there for the power it's going to have. Far from worthless...

[Z28Envy]

Very nice looking bike! That should be some fun this summer!:thumbsup

[UnderPSI]

Shoot that with some satin clear, add turbo, stir...... Mmmm turbo busa.
