So I can only imagine the mod list is only limited to your bank account, but I'm looking for some suggestions on appearance mods,that anyone and everyone thinks will look good on my 07, what is everyone's opinion on underglow lighting ? I've seen some of your beautiful bikes so I know you guys are the ones to ask. Thanks for your help n ride safe

I have never seen a bike up close with that lighting , but a mate was at the drags not long ago , and he said a bike was there with such lighting , and it looked amazing ! If it appeals to you , just do it and enjoy . Look forward to seeing your extra mods to an already nicely done Gen 1 .

It looks good if done right but definitely have to take your time and make sure everything is cleaned well with alcohol before sticking then to the bike. I use them to help the idiots see me when riding at night as well and it dies help.. and when riding side by side with my cuz on that blue gixxer they only see red and blue behind then and tend to get out the way which is a bonus

Loving the bike ! I bought my bike new in 06 and they came out with that 07 and I kicked myself for a long while. Overtime I grew to love my blue and silver and the neochrome kanji.
I as many others in the forum here view bike mods and upgrades as an art. The blue/silver allowed me to accentuate with blue bits here and there. With the all blue bike it’s rough I would say if it were me I would lean more towards black and carbon accents wherever you can since the bike kind of handles the blue all on its own lol. Please share more pics!!
I could give you a hand with ordering and installation tips on glow if you like.
I also have a set of carbon heel guards for sale for gen 1 brand new if they interest you

I love lights !
I started adding lights to my cars when all you could get was neon and single LED bulbs. You had to wire LED bulb with inline resistor. And I don't solder well.
I used clear vertical blind rods to make "LED light bars."
EL wire was crap back then.
Today there is "good" EL wire, EL tape, RGB LED halo rings, LED demon eyes, RGB LED strip kits and RGB LED wheel pods.
For a Busa !!! There are LED kanji seats, illuminated kanji windscreens, illuminated passenger grab bars, illuminated side fairing kanji's, illuminated grip bar ends and more ready to install.
It's all PAY and play; the limitations are your imagination and budget.
There are two cosmetic upgrades that are fast, simple and cheap. Reflective (peel & stick) pinstriping tape and frame plugs. Total cost is about $20.
Your frame and swingarm are black, black frame plugs are very cheap. ($10) Reflective pinstriping tape is available at most auto part stores. ($8)
I have a "grey" frame, so I had to go with frame covers and then plugs.

It's true, "your never done modding a Busa." (unless you sell it)
FYI - illuminated kanji's are $80 a set. I was thinking a getting red with white lettering.
