Re: high mounts - pan - 24-09-2006
I have the Staintunes too and am very happy with them.
The HMF's are a totally different sound though. Much "meaner" sounding than Staintunes, even without baffles.

Re: high mounts - Blackzook - 24-09-2006
Foz, I would recommend the HMF's to anyone the sound is unique. I have heard of serious quality problems but mine were fine and I've had no problems in 2 years and 30k.
To be fair they are very expensive at well over 2 grand but if you want something different well worth it.
The staintunes are not really comparable as they are slipons not a full system like the HMF's.
If you are after slips ons the Staintunes are the best, great quality and value. For a full system then prolly Yoshies or similar are the way to go. Bruce

Cheers Robert
Aren't all Busas Copper & Plated, the others are just all very poor slow ugly copies !!!!!<i></i>
Re: I'll high mount the pair of you - BUSGO - 25-09-2006
Don't have a cow Glenn,
Placing a nice pair of cans on a standard full twin system is still a full twin system..
Back to the chrome info.
For any good Chrome work in Newcastle see HAMILTON Chrome in the white pages.

Thats right Simmo this is the polished thread, And did someone mention TiForce systems?? for there quality and price.Hmmm if they didnt they should. Yep "stay in tune's" thats what they do cause they dont make enough gee gees to warrant a good tune. Cheers,

Funny Kawasuki. It's not ALL about Gee Gees is it?

Good luck with the rebirth of the frankenbusa.
Did it hurt? <i></i>
Re: rise of the frankenbusa - Maggot1300 - 26-09-2006
the most painful thing is not currently having a registered bike, but I should have that sorted shortley. Still they all seem like a poor cousin after the big bus
The Frankenbusa will rise again!!!<i></i>
Re: rise of the frankenbusa - spamanglenn - 26-09-2006
Where did you buy yours bruce? Glenn the Spa Man<i></i>
Re: rise of the frankenbusa - kawasuki - 27-09-2006
Fozzy i know were u get them from.
info@easyriderimports.com.au
He's a real good guy,i know him well.
Bruce wouldnt tell as he wants to be the only dude in NSW with them,trouble is he's in WA now and if we raise enough money for him he just might stay the f*** there.
Rockett told me to say it. TRUE.. Cheers,

Re: rise of the frankenbusa - Blackzook - 27-09-2006
Foz,
I got them from a shonky importer, easyrider some f*&^ing thing. Be warned he will want your first born as a deposit and then ream you big time
He is only a little fella so I suggest you go in hard with the intimidation thing and he will fold on price. Stand over the bastard show no sign of weakness it worked for me.
Seriously tho all jokes aside - he's an arsehole.
Better the devil you know Talk to Ray he'll do it right for you.
