My Busa is SLOW

[mopar250]

Ok, you guys are going to love this one. I live in a super small town here in Illinois and one day at the post office, and this kid that was early 20ish pulls up right next to my bike (an 06 ltd). He asks me if I got my bike in Ottawa (local town). I said no and told him where I got it from. He then tells me that he was going to buy the white one there, but they said they were holding it for someone, but they could get him another one. Then he tells me (this is great) that he decided to get the red one because he didn't want to have the same color bike as someone else........I said you know there are only 4 colors you can get this year right? He says to me, no it's like a car, you can get whatever color you want......... hee hee. he made my day. then he told me that he can't give his bike full throttle, because "it always breaks the rear tire loose in every gear." hee hee, made my day again. So, i'm here to say that even though you think you've heard/seen or been through every bs talken guy out there, there are still people that will shock and amaze you. BTW he told me he was a member on the board..

(big jim @ Sep. 12 2007,08:16) I ahd a guy on a Harley Dyna Glide tell me that his bike runs with Busa's and ZX 14's all the time.  

 I had to laugh and walk away.

I'm sure he meant it runs as in idling next to a busa and 14

(LB ROLLER @ Sep. 12 2007,12:06) lol a guy i know said he did 205 on his 2007 R1. i laughed and said wow really your bike is bone stock right? no pipes powercommander NOTHING? lol he grinned and just said YEAH i was like wow.. on  my GOVERNENT REGULATED STOCK BUSA i have only done 180. YOUR GOOD.. i told him...lol he just got pissed and left the area...lol

The bikes aren't Government regulated to 186, the manufacturers agreed to limit them to avoid Government regulation.

I wonder if the salesman are telling them that ? The guy I ride with most of the time has an R1 anniversary edition, (one of my favorites) and whenever I talk to somebody about my Busa, and how it's restricted, then how the speedo is off, he chimes in "mine will do over 200, I've never done it, BUT... it will" !! (bone stock, with 2 Brothers slip ons)

I think I saw that vid. 900some HP twinn turbo viper. I think the busa still took it on one of the runs.

Stock vipers are not suprecharged/turbo. They 'only' have about 500hp.
