Busa's can't corner?? says Ducati?

The busa turns just fine for a big fat chick. The problem with these "busa can't turn" threads is usually the posters confuse turning with cornering. Two entirely different topics. Turning is tiping into a corner and changing directions. Cornering has three different sections, Braking, Turning and Exiting. None of which the busa does well. It does it okay if you are playing but it falls on it's face if you are serious.

None of you and I mean NONE of you are going to spank a 600 on the twisties with your busa. You can, and I have too, spank a rider on a 600 but that's only because the rider is lacking your skills. I challenge anyone with a busa, to show up at a road race track where you have twisties without deer, old men with hats on driving a pickup, joggers and bicyclist and compete with a bone stock gsxr600. You will not only get spanked, but you will get embrassed. I know, I've tried and it don't work. Although the liter bikes are only 3 seconds faster at out track than the 600's they will embarrass you even worse. You can't pull away from a liter bike on the straights. They may not pass you when the throttle is pegged but they certainly will pass you on the brakes at the first corner.

I have never seen a busa that would get within ten seconds of a 600. Do that for ten laps and you can see how easily a 600 will lap even the best busa riders.

This has been a lude point since time began but for some, it will never sink in! Well, until they come out to the track where their skills can really shin and spank that fat chick's arse through one corner after another while watching a 600 quickly disappear into the distance like a ghost in the darkness.

I'm not bashing your beloved busa, I love my busa and enjoy it as much as any of you. But it would be nice if everyone understood their busa's limitations. I'm simply pointing out there is a world of difference in turning and cornering and turning and cornering well. I know it offends many who hear "Your busa don't turn". And that is BS, it turns just fine for what it is! Guys that make statements like this don't know much about cornering either. The busa is what it is and there is nothing you can do to it to make it compete with the real corner carvers. :beerchug:

Yoshimura probably knew that, but they made this:
