Almost pulled the trigger on a concours

.... but I came to my senses and decided to stick with my one and only. Have to find a way to take me lady on long hauls (even short ones).

Before I type anything else, I must say that this site's pretty awesome. I just never got to posting anything here before since I found most of the info I was looking for ( throughout the past year) on mods, issues etc... which I must say again is pretty friggin' A :thumbsup:.


I'm ordering the buell peg kit from Joe (GSX1300R-T), and might be looking at either Gel or Tobin right now. I'm most likely going for the Tobin (front and rear) and get a backrest for the missus' on long hauls.

Just thought I'd pop my cherry on here today :D ..........

Oh yes ... since folks are bound to ask, I ride a black and red 2010.
 
Yeah great deal on keeping your first love! Now add some pictures so we can salivate over your girl!
 
When I read your thread title I thought I may find a concours friend.

I bought a concours and it should arrive tomorrow. Hopefully pick it up by the weekend. I've wanted one for the past three years since I rode one that belong to a friend who is on his second one. I wanted to get some touring in this season for sure so I finally made the plunge.

You can't go wrong with your busa but I'm getting old and feable and need a soft gently ride for long hauls.

I'll be sure to post up so you'll know what you are missing. :laugh:
 
Thx to all for the warm welcome.

I can't find any decent pics :banghead: . The only ones I can find are with the monstrous cans after picking it up from the dealer.

I'll need to take a few closeups soon. I'll post them up before this weekend when we have a few sunny days. For now the ones that I could find were taken from a trip to Renovo, PA. I ran into a couple of fellow canucks, who gave me pointers on routes to take, through a local motorcycle forum a few days before the trip. Never really expected to cross paths.

If anyone's interested, here's a link to their blog on the the trip.

p.s: The fact that my gear sort of matched my bike was purely coincidental

Saw my neighbours and thought I'd like to get one. But in the end just couldn't come to letting the busa go. At least this was I get to have fun in the twisties and commuting while compromising (just a bit) on long hauls.

The concours is a sweet ride though. Let me know how it goes!!

My ealier post (with a few pics) seems to be taking some time to get approved by the mods, so that will have to wait I guess.
 
Welcome :welcome:

Glad to know you're not too far from me, I'm in Scarberia, not too many Busa riders around tho.

I know 4 other riders in scarb/markham area. We usually meet up at the Tims at morningside and sheppard. Let me know when you're up for a boot and we can meet up.
