    TX Rider with a "new to me" 'Busa!

    Big congrats... that's definitely my favorite paint scheme for all the 'Busa's... I couldn't wait for it, and got a 2013 black one on clearance this past April for $12k... awesome deal you got!

    Just bought a new Hayabusa today

    Are you in So Cal? You're not worried about any legal issues riding the 'busa on the street?

    Trying to decide on a color......

    If you're thinking about the yellow at all, I think that's a sign that you really want it. I don't think you'll regret it. The yellow brings more passion for sure. You won't get that visual rush with the white, though the white is no slouch either..... I initially wanted white, but then...

    Just bought a new Hayabusa today

    I installed the r77's on my 'busa... and I bought the kit from RevZilla too ;-) Was an easy installation, which I video'd here: Having done the slip on for the GSX-R600, it was easy on the 'Busa. Trickiest part is drilling the small hole in the pipe, to put the retaining pin in. Also, I...

    Just bought a new Hayabusa today

    Congratulations! My first bike in 2012 was a Harley sporster of all things. Hated it, then rented an Yamaha R6 one weekend, and loved it. So I opted last summer Aug '13 to get a used 2011 Suzuki GSX-r600 (my first sports bike) and fell in love as a second bike. I should have started with...

    Why the buzz?

    Here is a video on how to do it First Gen Busa but it's the same for the Gen II

    Hi all from scotland

    Wow.. that's a lot of 'busa history. Question, do the fazer 1000 and '06 r1 both have Yamaha's throttle by wire? I rented an R6 last year (a 2012 model I think) and found it very stressful for everyday street riding. The throttle felt like it was either on or off, with very little middle...

    Looks better from behind ... (Yoshi smorgasbord)

    Yoshimura R-77 EPA Approved Slip-On Exhaust Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa 2008-2013 - RevZilla I bought them at revzilla, because I've dealt with them before and have been quite satisfied. Not trying to snub other vendors here. Pretty much the same/lowest retail cost I could find. I've found them...

    Looks better from behind ... (Yoshi smorgasbord)

    got the new cans and fender elimination kit installed. And I made the requisite how-to installation video on the Yoshimura R-77, Dual Slip-On Exhaust installation. Some of you old pro's may laugh at my green horn-ness, but that, my approach, might be useful for some folks who...

    Pazzo clutch lever hitting bar end...

    Thanks guys. Glad to confirm that it's not just me with this. Not a terrible thing to live with, and the idea of the silicon (or something to pad the click), is a good idea!

    Pazzo clutch lever hitting bar end...

    My new full length Pazzo clutch lever, hits the bar end with a distinctive "click" tap contact sound, and this is on all settings 1 - 6. I like the action well enough, actually the lever engages/disengages the clutch much quicker for some real quick shifts, but this hitting the bar end is...

    Let's see your exhaust

    Not the most exotic, but I love the look. I *just* installed these yesterday.... R-77 slip-ons. In fact, UPS delivered the package yesterday at 12:45 PM, and I had them installed by 4:30 PM (and that was with a lunch break and video'ing the process) Installation video to follow after I...

    Why the buzz?

    Also want to chime in and thank everyone as well. Worked like a charm for me. I placed, perhaps a bit over board, 5 strategically placed tiny strips of electrical tape alone the edge of the windscreen, equally spaced. Worked perfectly. Love my new 'Busa even more. Coolest bit of course, is...
