Hi Ya Mark and
on board mate,
Glad you are OK after the off - can be a bit scary.
Blackbirds are great bikes, certainly very refined. A mate of mine who I used to go riding with had one, and we'd often swap bikes. After spending a fair bit of time on both - I have to give it to the Busa (Gen 1) for handling, grunt and for me, looks, so if you are thinking Gen 2 - well crap, I would guess it would be a hands down decision.
anyway enjoy your stay - this place is a little crazy at times, but always good for a laugh, not to mention a wonderful resource of info and mateship
See you
Achilles
