Has anyone ever had one, known of one or know somebody who has one?
Been enjoying my track days recently and would one day love to have a Busa track bike... 
Ultimately I'll have to wait 40 years until Kawa gets dementia and can't ride his ultra-light Busa, then con him into selling it to me for a couple of grand... put plastics on it and away I go... but until then, I thought I'd ask the question, just incase somebody's got one sitting in their garage...

Go on Leonard... you're always tinkering away in the shed. Use up some of that free time and make me an ultra light Busa track bike dammit! Make sure you heed spaman's advice and get the front forks are done though! 
...and I WILL pick up that swingarm and get it out of your way one day!!! ...

Off the top of my head I think there were only about 200
I remember one guy in the UK had the X1 fuel tank on his stock Busa!!
Not exactly a X1 Pan. I raced this in the WPMCC RB series incl the 6 hr and 5 hr endurance races at EC and WP during 2004. took it to Lake Gairdner that year too with Maj and Hawkwind and it averaged 204.603mph or approx 330km/hr over the mile.
Have fun, they are a handfull when pressed.

Talk Mark (loverustler) into a loan of his B-king and see how that goes on the track.
Could be interesting I reckon.

I've seen one like that, but it looked like a heavy lowered drag bike 
If you see it again, can you post a link Dan?
Cheers
Busgo, I can't imagine the B-King would be anything special on the track... Kinda like a GSX1400 with a different look and extra ooompff!
