heaps better, had to use them about a month ago to really pull up after a pin head drove striaght through a stop sign in front of me, i was doing spot on 50ks,and i did a stoppy shit me self actually but i stopped damn quick

ok today i got kitted up ,fully head to toe for my test ride ,bike started fine ,brakes clutch ,ok all good ,i would be a fool not to be cautious, as i was scared i suppose you could say ,nervous maybe ,i set off went for a quick 20 minutes ride around town ,then back to my workshop,i came to a stop at my shop ,and got off with my heart pounding,wow, the bike is fantastic, i was a little coy how i felt about the ride ,it was very uplifting to have my old partner in crime ,my "bastard busa" back with me,i was that over happy ,i didnt bother to pick up a spanner i just sat there looking at my creation with the biggest smile ,shit i built it AGAIN bwahahaha ,
its only water under the bike as i washed it ,

Thanks Pan ,life is a challenge without going through this, lol ,Shannons want to re-insure,after telling me the bike was a total loss ,if i add up what it cost me to fix it ,a lot will be dumb founded as to how cheap it was,it only cost me $600, plus a really good mate gave me the rear wheel ,bonus right there,and it took around 5 days of solid drinking,ooppps work to fix it,lol,

oh and the tls calipers work heaps better then the stock calipers,plus there a heap lighter as well

Hey if you can't fix it you learn from your mistakes....just have patents and start again remembering where you went wrong and can improve on it. We are ever evolving...

This tread should be titled "How to turn a Hayabusa into a Frankenstein". I am to stupid to understand the "why" here.

no its a life style choice i like sports and sports tourers ,but the busa has the sexiest looking motor ,and having no plastics appeals to me.
