Because my wife is so DAMN WONDERFUL!!!!!!&#33

[sietek]

Great Day… Great day…….!!!!  I picked up my ’05 Busa LE today.  I made my wife a deal though….  Because I couldn’t’ decided between my current ’05 Gixxer 1K, and a new Busa, she told me that if I could find a good deal on a Busa, that I could buy it, ride them both for a little while, and then decide which one I wanted.  I found my Busa for $9645.   Eventually, one of them will have to go, but for now, I am in Suzuki heaven.  

The two bikes are COMPLETELY different.  I mean night an day different, but I do like them both.   I will write my back to back review of my opinions of the two later.  I had to take a very long lunch to go get this bike and mow I have to get some work done.  For all of you know (mostly the married guys out there), when you get an opportunity like this, and the wife agrees, you seize the opportunity ASAP!!!!

Congrats.  My wife and I had a similar conversation in the end of April, 2 days latter I purchased the Busa.  You advice is very solid.

Looks like you are a pretty big guy. I'm betting the gixxer's days are numbered........
Congrats.

 

[PandaNin]

Congrats Dude!

I'm so glad you posted that other pic wearing pants. I was about to squid you out

Dontcha just wish you could ride more than 1 bike at a time???

 

[BulletTrain]

[BulletTrain]

Nah, I always wear full gear (with Armor) when I ride. I was just in such a hurry to get there, that I just brought my riding gear with me, and changed in the bathroom, before riding her home.....

I picked her up from Metro Cycles, off of I-20 and Thorton Rd, here in Atlanta (Lithia Springs to be exact). Steve is the Sales Manager. Cool guy. I only had to pay tax, no other fees. Considering that their cost on the bike is about $9450, I don't feel bad. I mean, they DO have to keep the lights on.

Yeah, from my earlier thread (I wish I knew how to attach a link to it), I am about 6’+, and about 200 pounds… (former running back). That is why I started looking at the Busa. My Gixxer can be a bit cramped on longer rides, so I wanted to look into something roomer.

Congrats on the 2 beautiful rides!! Look at that HUGH GRIN on yer face!! That's what we call the BUSA GRIN!!!

Nice rides man, congrats on picking up the busa. I hope you aren't attached to the 1000 cause I don't think you will want to keep it over the busa.

I had somewhat of the same discussion with my wife, unfortunately for me she said I could only by one if I only rode it to work,lol. If she only knew

 

[onerabidshark]

man you suck! J/K why can't I find a wife or girlfriend like that. congrats have fun trying to make a decision I know thats gonna be tough. My choice would be the Busa, but who knows maybe you can talk her into keeping both

 

[busahaya]

Congrats, I hope my future wife let's toy around like you... I think you will be saying good bye to the 1000k though

Metro is where I went to compare the K5 gixx to the 10R side by side. I've never been able to buy shid from them. They quoted me $12,100.00 as their best out the door price for a left over K5 Gixxer for God's sake. That wasn't even a starting point for negotiations.

I guess I saw the one you bought when I was there. They had an LE in stock then (week or more ago). Congrats on the sweet new ride.

Fwiw, I almost went with the Gixx, but I've already owned a 10R and knew I liked it. I was just afraid I wouldn't like the Gixx as much. Wanted to find one and get a test ride but that doesn't happen at dealers. If I could have gotten a test ride and liked it as much as the 10 I would have went with the Gixx. Just couldn't take the gamble.
