Of course a naked bike will expose your body much more than a tuck with full fairing. That said, this motorcycle with 1/4 fairing slides surprisingly well through the atmosphere. How fast will it go? Well which turbo spring am I using? With race gas and 20 lbs of boost, on paper, over 220 mph...

Thanks to you all. Wheelbase is stock to 6" over. Weight is 480, 245 hp/145 lbs torque with 6 pounds boost, 91 octane. (335 hp with big spring and race gas, unk torque at that level). I bought this for long distances.

So satisfying seeing others doing a full transformation build. It's beautiful looking! I'm at the end of 4 years with mine.

Great job! I love off road.

Thank you for sharing your build, I applaud both you and the owner for this unique and special "Busa". I wish I had a buck for every post that made a negative comment on some part or decision I was so proud of when building the Superbyke!

OK, you're right, everybody is a participant here. I'm just coming from the position of "let's be civil". All of us, including c10, can make this a better place! AND another point from me. If you read my contributions to this conversation YEARS ago, it's responsible for me to say that my earlier...

Dear WV Rider, let's look at a little context here. Your personal sarcasm "Mr. Pro rider...." was a sarcastic personalization message and obviously C10's response demonstrated that in fact, he does have a lot of racetrack experience. Yes his response was a lot of bandwidth but to say "your need...

Good stuff guys, thanks! Doyle

When I do a loop around the Country, I'm payin you a visit!

Wow, I didn't expect that upside down action, see how light it is?!

Baja Designs street conversion, Corbin seat, oil cooler doubling capacity, 50-50 tires, higher gears, 6.5 gallon tank. The thing makes you feel guilty that it's street legal! It'll actually run along at 80 on the freeway but it's so darn light (255 lbs.) that it's quite vulnerable to strong...

Thank you so much for that advice! I actually own a KTM 525 EXC with high gears and a 6.5 gal tank. Your post makes me think I should use it instead of the "$28k flagship"!

Fast and comfortable, this Adventure Touring thing is really fun, been in 4 states so far and I really want to do Alaska and the Arctic Circle (Dalton Hwy to the top!) Doyle

The harder you ride, the longer your hard rides are, and the hotter the ambient conditions are, the more you can benefit from Brembos. And like Fallenarch says, don't forget high end pads, SS lines (and, for me, I installed an Accossato radial master cylinder).
