Hi all, I've decided to have a look through this forum, ask for some information and maybe join some rides, so here I am with my first post.
My introduction to Busa's was three years ago when I bought a new 06 in Silver/blue that I ordered with a bagster tank cover and bag and a Ventura rack. Standard otherwise. It was a lovely bike that I put (from memory) about 50000 kms in two years before I dropped it on a slippery ripple strip.
I immediately bought a new K9 in black in December 08 and I've just notched up 20000kms on it. Same as the first, no bling at all. At the time I almost went for a Bandit but at the last minute realised that there was no way I'd be satisfied with anything other than a busa.
Quite often weeks will pass without me riding it and sometimes only a short run to clear the cobwebs, but usually when I get on, I'll do 1000 kms plus. I enjoy the long haul trips.
I've only had it on track at EC once - I've tracked all of my bikes. That day really brought out my only gripe with the bike.....the brakes.
Having said that, I wouldn't swap it with any other bike.
I'm looking forward to enjoying being here!
