How to make a gen 2 the best bike you ever owned

[turbo11]

if you think your Busa was fast before, you ain't seen nothing yet make sure you're pointed straight when you hit the throttle, cause it's going to go in the direction pointed.::11
that's the face you'll be making inside the helmet

No sir it's not going to be the same bike. Ya it's been 5 months. I'm going thru major withdrawals. But you can't rush perfection. Powerhouse has been super busy with other builds as well. And was waiting for some more parts for mine so I'm on the back burner till the parts are in. As soon and Frank gets going he will post some more pics. I hope. I miss my baby. And spring is just a few weeks away so I'm getting really excited here too.
I would like to say it again. POWERHOUSE has been awesome thru all this and I couldn't have asked for more from them. Top notch customer service. I can't speak for my build yet till I throw my leg over it but so far I haven't been disappointed yet so I'm sure it's gonna be flawless.

Frank is doing my bike now also so sorry for the hold up!! just to let you know how much faith i have in Frank i shipped him my bike from California!! and no buddy works on my bikes but me! Until now.....

Yup frank is the first shop I've ever sent my bike too. This is the first time I've ever been away from my bike too.

That's showing a great deal of faith ... from what I've heard your bike could not be in better hands than Frank's.....

It doesn't take very long at all for a great reputation like Frank's to reach far across the globe...

Wiring is done, preliminary programming done on the AMS1000, shift light/launch/autoshift function enabled, all systems up and working. Bike is now sitting atop the dyno waiting for some love . . . looks like I might come in on Sunday and get at least the pump gas map sorted out. We should see the big numbers on C16 mid-week. . .

Supposed to be nice on Sunday, might want to tune it on the pavement as well The Butt dyno

seriously though, cant wait. I've been watching this thread as well, the bike should be pretty cool, Nice work

I trust Frank. But not sure if I want ppl riding it. Frank dyno tuning is one thing. But some one other than me riding my baby that's a sad thought.

I'm weird. Don't want anyone riding it. I know frank has to throw a leg over it to dyno it. But it's cuz he has to. Other than than I don't want anyone riding my bike. No friends or family.

Yeah I understand that but if it was my bike after its done on the dyno I would tell frank to take it for a weekend to make sure everything is a go. I would rather have someone that has 20years of bike turbo experience ride it then me with no experience. He will notice something small that most people would over look or not notice at all. Its not like a friend that just going to try and go fast. I guess if I was spending the money you are on a turbo busa I would want to make sure its at 110% when I take it home. Some problems won't show on a dyno or 10 minute ride around the block.

Never been on a plane and never want, well unless I'm getting pushed out the door. For some reason I'm afraid to fly but I want to jump outta a plane.

Great thinking here my friend .... only let Frank ride it if he needs too and leave the rest of the riding to you.

I doubt you would like to see your busa on it's head at the hands of inexperience...get my drift !!???

I do get your drift. Heck I'm not experienced in turbo bikes my self. But I know I'm no pro. Gonna start slow and take it easy. I'm no hot shot or show off.
