Welcome aboard! I did what you did, sold my 03 GSXR1000 and bought a 05 Busa because I wanted more comfort. Get a Busa, you won't be disappointed! The power is still there and then plus some and the comfort, well, no comparison! You'll love it! You'll miss your gixxer if you're an aggressive canyon carver, but if your riding style is more of the longer sports touring mix between hwy and the twisties, the Busa is your ticket. Have fun!
