FrankenBusa - Axe - 23-06-2010
Doing a GSX-R1000 rear end conversion on the Busa...
A work in progress, but well on the way.
'09 Gold/Black Busa
Akropovic full system
X-TRE,
Power Comander 5, and Auto tune
Will be dropping the gearing down a little soon, and hopefully getting some Carbon Wheels.
Need to neaten up the wiring a little I think...
RE: FrankenBusa - Hutch99 - 23-06-2010
looking good so far...
what wheels are you looking at getting? BST or Dymag???
RE: FrankenBusa - Axe - 23-06-2010
BST...
and then some sticky rubber to help out at the track days....

I've got Pirelli Diablo Corsa III's on my Busa, and they're great on the track ! Even had to take the hero pegs off the old girl.

Looks pretty cool.... Be good to see the finished product
RE: FrankenBusa - Axe - 26-06-2010
Here's a few more....
Taking my time, and probably being a little to pedantic but I really want to achieve a stock look and finish quality.

Looking good mate! Love the busa with the gsxr1k tail..
I'm bias tho! Just don't paint her green :)
RE: FrankenBusa - Axe - 26-06-2010
ATM Pretty sure I'll keep the Gold/Blk thing going...
Dont see too many gold busa's around, and it's 10 years from the original, and a kinda close hint back to the original coper bike.
But well see... She might get a full paint at some point!
PC5, auto tune and X-TRE on now, dropping the gearing this week when I get time, so should be a wheeling monster...
should be fun!!
RE: FrankenBusa - 09Fatboy - 29-06-2010
nice work Axe , it would be interesting to see the weight difference is between the oem tail and the new gixxer tail , any idea ?
RE: FrankenBusa - Axe - 29-06-2010
Yea...
I was thinking about weighing the new sub frame and stuff but got carried away ...
I know there's def a big difference.
the hole new rear end actually weighs close to the busa rear body work..., just the plastics and light....
The busa sub frame, is so heavy.
