hi all, im looking for a new bike, as just sold my 250, and getting off unrestricted licence.
I have rode friends cbr and r6/ r1 , but i fell in love with the busa back in 99 when i first saw one, unfortunately i cannot test drive one as i havent got my full licence until 08/05, and none of my mates have one, they all have the previous models stated.
I have found one in SA for $15,400 2004 model, 6000kms, just wondering is this a good price? anything to look out for on the bike itself? pros cons of the busa?
its either this or a gsxr600 for $9K or triumph daytona for $11K. but i figure if i get my dream bike straight off i wont waste money on selling a devalused bike down the track.
are they comfortable to ride? service costs/parts costs?
do they suck the juice down being a 1300?
i got quoted $1300 a year for insurance through QBE as im only 26, have rating 1 car licence
any help would be much appreciated before i put a deposit on the bike, hopefully to get it for $14500 cash?
