I havent took a realy long trip yet the longest I have rode was up to San Antonio witch was hour 1/2 and I figured it would be my back tired nope more my wrists ever thing else was good.. AND YES I realy want to add a BUSA....I Live in a large apartment but my door is right in front of the stairs so its a tight squeeze to put the bike up every night I am always scared I am gonna scratch it up real bad but 7 months no scratches... I keep it in side because 3 to 4 bikes in corpus were getting stolen every night my buddys busa got stolen and it got so bad a guys gsxr 600 got stolen off a military base but anyways .... The busa wont fit in the door my banker done said 3 thousand down and I can drive off with a 06 busa any time I want I am still pre approved but like I said no where to keep her And im not gonna take a chance and leave her out side so untill I get a new place the 1,000 will stay in the family........Natewelcome! Seriously, how are long trips on 1000? gruelling, numbing or extacy? are you pondering adding or trading for a busa?
