[Santaw]

So my bike was made in December 2000 but is a k1 has a 340kph speedo but everything I have read about the k1 tells me it should be a 280 k so did the restriction start In January 2001 has aney one eles got a late December 2000 with this speedo ????

I see we have a first time post...first of all....

Welcome to the site, pictures and an introduction are always welcome.....and......

You have a 2000 Hayabusa, they got restricted for 2001, you most likely got one of the last 340kms/hr speedos...cherish it as many would want that speedo.

So dus that mean even though it’s a k1 becors it was made in 2000 it’s unresticted ? If so it would be a very rear bird lol

 

[Santaw]

Hears the speedo

My initial guess would be it's unrestricted...there is a way you can tell.... It would involve twisting the wrist.

As soon as I can find a bit of road long enough I will lol

It appears to be in Australia. . That’ll be why it’s in kms not mph lol.

A word of advice . . Get rid of that metal feather, it will scratch up your top yoke surface . . . Or is it plastic? Hard to tell

The paint indicates that it's an 01, it may be that they had a few sets of gauges left over at the factory, or perhaps it was swapped on by a previous owner. Look at the part number on the ECU. That'll tell you.

Hi mate , great score you got yourself , I think it maybe better to not be tempted by that excessively high reading speedo..... , and let me swap it for a sensible 280 kph one .... Well , had to try , now watch out for those Queensland pigs wont you , they also can fly !!

your pic shows definitly a 2001 busa (see others here)
the ´99 & ´00 - 340 km/h - speedo fits perfect to all later busa´s up to 2007.
so your 2001 busa´s speedo will have got a change from ´01 to ´99 or ´00 by former owners (to fool others ?).

note:
if your busa don´t go faster than 300 (on the speedo) even if you go full throttled down "mount everest´s" north side
the ecu (and rotor) is probably the orig. 2001 / unflashable 16bit, restricted at 295 km/h by ´01´s mapping
if you want to crack this restriction you have to put in the ecu / rotor - combi of a ´02-´07
and flash (out) the 6th gear restriction.
or
you put in a special "gear display" from germany - this will unlimit every gen1 busa´s 295 km/h border.

Good advice right there, the part number will tell you for sure.

One never knows, even though it is a 2001 model, maybe they had 2000 parts left and a couple bike snuck by under the radar...it has happened before.

01 is a bastard year, combination of 16 bit and 32 bit electronics, I can't remember off the top of my head what's what, but I know most things don't interchange. 99-00, 01, 02-07 are the interchange years.
