OK now its Saturday pick up. That will have to do hay. nothing I can do. I would have loved to see it come out of its egg. But i live to far away to go down today and Saturday.
There; the new GSXR1000 Darren told me why the work shop was under great pressure to get them out.
So hope the weather holes off so I can get it home before it does change.
When I have it I'll put up some shots of her too.
Thanks guys for all you help and look forward to a happy Hayabusa!!
Cheers and Thanks I'll have a beer now and relax.

well, finally decided to "bite the bullet" ordered our orange 08 today, should be around three weeks to delivery. Our '05 red and black (very sad to say) is now up for sale, if only i could keep them both!! But not to be.
Yesterday I went down to a dealership and there was 2 white busas one inside and one outside in the sun.I walked 15 meters away from the one indoors and to my surprise the bike looked like it had a creamy yellowish finish to it,so I went out and checked the other this time from about 20 meters and what do you know the same shit was on the bike.I than took a friends 3 year old gsx1400 and put it next to the busa for a white color comparison and the 1400 was brighter than the busa.So the questions rolled out and the final result according to the dealer was that the pearl finish on the bike makes it look that way.I also realised how decieving the white color was from the show display lights to the shop floor. I asked how come he has 2 sitting here and he explained that a customer put a deposit down without live viewing and after he saw one in the flesh at spirngwood suzuki(he gets them first) he cancelled the color and opted for either the Jaffa or nubular grey.If anyone gets the chance to view can they put up what they think in regards to the observations I made.
Yeah it's it looks like It will be Saturday morning for me. I will also get the fender eliminator kit they have plus I want some stand knobs and tank protector.

But then the mess my blue/silver finished up in after bugs, birds and road works.
I had to plead to be able to use tank water to wash it after my trip. She would never allow me to use water to keep a white one looking good.
I could always repaint mine "drought brown"
I too live on tank water. Never wash the car until you have too and go to a mates place who has a bore. but with a 205 drum for my self to wash my bike I have no trouble. About two times i run out of water in my drum and taken to my mates place too. I don't ride when the weather is bad, use my WB ute. so most of the time she is clean.
I know what you mean about using your tank water only for home use. You sure get to know what its like when you live on tank water.
Hope to see you Busdriver one day hay.
Take care
John
