I just bought one of these from repco cos I gotta do some maint and gonna be easier on this. My question is, obviously I have to remove the fairings but lifting the busa up on the pipes, do they carry the weight ? or is it going to cause damage.

not a good idea to lift the bike on the pipes i would not recomend it.
I got one of those. By what little memory left.
Get 1/2" x 3" timber. Cut 2 pieces & sit em on top of jack & it leaves a gap in the center so that timber flats on either side of stock busa sump.
Jack the whole bike up no worries with no fairing. Or--use front fork stand and rear swingarm stand, remove the whole motor after removing all engine mount bolts.
Every Big Block Stroker Motor Builder should have one.
Sorry Pommie,
Mine looks very similar to yours. HOWEVER. Yours has a bar going across the centre exactly where the sump should go. Mine has 2 x bars either side on top instead of your one in the center.

What it is. Made in China.
Ya sump fits right in the guts with the timber slats either side.
Chop it and do it yourself with a welder and another bar.

A tape, a grinder, a caddy welder, some steel and a bit of imagination and you'll be right. I turned a cheap chinese gym into something someone over 5' tall can use the same way... now I just need to use it
