That would be awesome!
Thanks. It is the GP4 calipers and the RCS19 MC (brake and Clutch. Brembo's standard rotors, not the T-bar type.
Today's toy. Not 100% sold on it but it looks amazing. Don't like that the top is not attached, wonder how much time I'm going to be spending looking for the cap?
You get used to it bro , you put it on your seat while you fill up , and when you are done you put it back on......
HahahahaYou will have the lightest cap available , if you swap out those bolts and nuts it comes with , Willie !!

WoW..... that looks really good!!! Whomever picked that out sure has exceptional taste
Amazing, simply amazing. first I make a rookie mistake of not looking at both sides of the bike in the design phase, which is recoverable. But it does make the paint scheme less than what I was hoping for.
Then I take the BMW in for a 6K and they were chaging the front wheel and a big strip of paint comes off! Dealer says its past the 1 year warranty but he'll call BMW and see what they can do. What a POS this bike is.
anyway I'm really over the BMW but if I sell it then the main reason I painted the busa these colors was to match BMW. Also without the BMW I would have tailored the build more to what @c10 has done.
Never stops!

Run with it Arch this is going to be tops no matter what the parts are ridiculous even Toad approves. I personally like the single kangi with left side cc size so no dumb a$$ can say what is it a.......bla blah. Wrong answer dill hole go away.
Yeah I'm over the whining. Been working up options and communicating with the painter yesterday and today. Colors are good and I like them. Concept is good but needs adaptation. Might have to break down and just draw the Kanji for each side myself. Painter is patient but he already has me in the Q and I don't want to hold him up.
The bikes going to be okay Willie , yeah it is easy to overlook things , when you are putting a special together , but you are onto it now , nearly there bro !! 
I was thinking though , from reading your comment , if you got out of the BMW , even with the $ loss you can expect , you should have plenty left for another additional used Busa . Then some kitted out parts like the bar set up and seat , screen similar to @c10 or @mabupa , but a base version of course to start off , and get the luggage set etc. later ....a BMW replacement .
Or , if the priority has now shifted from Sport ( S ) , to Sport Touring (ST) for your Busa build , because of BMW sale ? You could then change your Busa build to full setup ultimate distance covering weapon just like Bryans vision for his machine , turbo / supercharged ..... whatever you desire .
You could also just be happy and put together what you have got now , enjoy it and still get rid of the BMW . You could then think about whether to commit to 1 more phase of mods over next winter for any of the above possible outcomes ....
Sorry !!!

If I get rid of the BMW, I'll use it for the trailer since I already spent that money on the Busa build.The bikes going to be okay Willie , yeah it is easy to overlook things , when you are putting a special together , but you are onto it now , nearly there bro !!

Could always buy a cheap Gen 1 to build as an ST bike....they can be had for less than 5k.
Trailers probably a better investment than THAT BMW by the sounds..... , so good luck with your choices !!

Arch..... come on over buddy the waters just fine. Harley may have it’s fair share of problems but paint ain’t 1 of em!!!
Figuring out what to buy has been all the fun. I have a buddy who has an original Rolling Sands Busa. Bike is amazing but he didn't make any of the choices or research what it does what and why. This process has actually been fun, getting a lot of input then going back and pouring the options and making the decisions. Generated some post traffic too.
