Hi Redkatana,
So you do 4km trips on your Busa? mate the engine isn't even warm so you are pushing very thick oil around your engine whihc takes power - a lot of power plus your bike hasn't reached its optimal thermal temperature. No wonder you are getting bad fuel economy.
Most of your engine wear occurs until it gets warm so be gentle on the throttle. Also with 4 km trips your bike is doing "severe" service so the oil should be changed more frequently.
Cheers
