Making the busa LIGHTER. better round corners/track
#17
I found this with my Gen 1, and shorting the wheel base was one of the best mods.
The big issue is trusting the front for corner entry speed, this is where tires (Diablo)
And the braided lines come in. So you can feel the front more and better controlled braking.

One of my mates is a pure smart ass about such things, having a back ground in racing dirt, he for now, settles for a 250 cbr purely to smash 1000, 600, 750`s and of course busa`s simply with cornering speed. The cbr is so light that he can hold awesome corner entry. So through tight stuff he always used to catch me and my other mates and pass us.

My challenge was to corner as fast as him, the setup I had and lots of riding and a wet track day to finish it off and then all of a sudden he was holding me up in corners before the apex!!

I learnt then that the bus a even with its weight can do it, it can corner nearly as good as the more sporty bikes..... just comes down to setup and how much you can push your mind and how well that front end holds :-)

Enjoy!
