New Member With Old Ride.

Hi to all!
Probably I'm one of the "aged" (67) Busa rider with 2003 bike. Love and ride my bike since Sept. 2003 with 000001 km on the odo. It was all black 2003 LE version for Europe:

Three years ago I've gave Her a face lifting and now She looks like "this", and has up of 155 000 km :

I'm proud and sure that is one and only "two wheels Hayabusa Nakajima Ki-43 code name "Oscar" version" :-)
Sorry for my bad English...

Dude! That weathered Oscar look is crazy. So good........

PS: Just needs a couple bullet holes. Lol!

 

[WuzzaCBXRider]

It used to be all green right, just before shifting into 6th?

Hey , welcome to the org. I voted black because that's what I ride.

Like the paint, u ride your ride friend. 57 here, hope I'm still riding a Busa at 67

Love that paint work mate , very fitting for the Busa . They should of called the KI-84 Hayate the Hayabusa , one tough fast feared and respected WW2 bird .

Welcome! Aged you say, for us guys that have been riding the busa since 1999 & 2000 67 isn't that old

Nice bike and better attitude! Thanks for posting up.

Welcome to the board! I too voted black, but only because its one of my favorite colors and im a boring fellow!

 

[nosbig]

To hard of a decision to make. The war paint looks really cool, but black is the fastest color. Looks like your going to need two sets of plastic.

The first pic looks like it has da vinci (miss spelled) exhaust. Decent if memory serves me well. What is that exhaust in the second?

 

[anabuki]

Thank you all for your kindly welcome.

Somebody said that one picture is better than 1000 words...
What about one movie?

First was LeoVince, the second are made by Custom Exhaust Shop to look as close as original Nakajima Ki43 exhausts. They are really NO "silencers"

No chance. I think Hayabusa is "Hayabusa" only because of the "fast falcon" story.
There is no bird called Hayate...

But there is the bike... https://www.bikedekho.com/news/all-new-suzuki-hayate-ep-unveiled

Isn't Hayate the name for a fresh breeze or shippu?
