If , like me , your beloved Busa is now giving you a bunch of aches n pains (and you`re not quite ready to convert to a ...err....goldwing!) you could do a lot worse than consider this here mod.
I too , like many others , have had one of those 'heli-bar' type risers for many years but sadly they (like my aging bones) have well and truly reached their used by date.
The worry at first was that these things might end up looking kinda 'goofy' on the beastie......but as it`s turned out , it sort of has an animal look about it.....not unlike a 'streetfighter' (albeit with a humongous great fairing)
The ride is absolutely sensational.
Slow speed control is amazing.......and feet-up tight U-turns are a doodle.
At speed it`s no prob to duck down a bit under the screen.....which is a terrific MRA jobbie with an upturned lip and is suitably modified for clearances.
The kit comes complete with everything you need (including all the necessary extended braided lines and hoses.)
It`s best installed as a two man job....mainly due to lots of bleeding required. (Thanx heaps Bruce.....you truly are 'da man' .....and ya sure `nuff make a mean omelette to boot!)
The whole cost of the excercise is pretty much on par if you were to buy all the bits individually.
Really great value.....considering the fantastic ride ya get.
cheers......Franko
