IF they could keep the price under $20k I might just be in on this one...
But, I really don't have any inside info, just speculation!
I was hoping that we would see these colors this year...
Why this idea is a waste of time
1) They'll put on an exhaust - none of you will like it
2) They'll add some carbon - none of you will like it
3) They'll put some small mods on - none of you will like it
4) The paint scheme - Ewww - none of you will like it
5) Those different coloured wheels - none of you will like it
Point is - Busa owners are a fickle lot, who like to mod "as individuals".... so why bother if you were Suzuki....?
LOL
well...... think Yamaha beat them to it.......
detuned to 200rwhp
I would jump on a copper. Love those bikes!
Here is a different approach. One of the most sucessful bikes Suzuki (n)ever made was the 7/11. The GSXR1100 motor jammed into the lightest (at the time) 750 chassis made, was the most potent combination of the day. If they could stuff the 1340 motor into the GSXR1k at the factory, you would have a 450 lb 200 HP bike that nothing could touch. Nothing.
1) Factory turbo, but need some fly components in the turbocharger. Variable vane and ceramic ball bearings. I don't even want a whiff of lag.
2) Bore and stroke it to 1500cc keep it running its best on 87, and slap on a 240 tire from Diablo.
