Hello there, After a very long break from biking .Biker(about 20 years) I decided my life needed livening up a bitFrown. Life as a driver in the North QLD transport business can get boring. So I bought a new Busa. Coolsmiley Very Nice!!
Richard from Future Sport Townsville did the deed. Thanks Richard, great deal.
Ive now done about 3000k over 4 weeks, and I have enjoyed every minute of it. Previous bikes from 1975 were Honda 100cc, 250ccDream, 400-4, 550-4supersports, 750-4 F2, Suzuki 500dr.
The Busa is lighter than the old 750, but with an extra 100 ponies.Clap
I had only one complaint, the seat is crapp!! So after a bit of thought, I reshaped the foam, and had a black sheepskin cover made, Now can go more than an hour without arse ache.
I have been trawling through this forum for a couple o weeks, gleaning information on performance and after market options, and am enjoying the diverse opinions. The thread on exhausts in the K8 section is a crackerGrouphug. Ive posted a pic of the busa and I look forward to maybe a ride with some of you in future.

Welcome brother, good to see you bought the fastest colour, we all know that black/grey is way cooler than that tacky orange colour

Congratulation on returning to the buzz (adrenalin) of bikes, youve picked a great model to get back in with. Just take it easy for the first few months till your fully orientated back on bikes, especially this one!

Welcome to the club.
