Newbie to site and Busa's

[Magikman]

Hello all you Busa fans. I have read alot of the topics in here and you guys seem like a great group of people on here.

I got an 05 Ltd about a month ago and can't stop riding it.I named her Betty Busa and her voice keeps calling me often to take her out.Does this happen to others and thier Busa's? LOL

By the way my name is Les and I am hoping to have many years as a Busa Rider.

Welcome and congrats! Alpinestar! I have shopped long and hard and have found it to the best and most comfy! A little pricey but you can find good sales from time to time! I got mine from Motostrano.com. Check it out!!! Also newenough.com has good close outs!

This is a great site for info and nice folks to chat with.

Welcome again!!!! BUSA's are the BEST!!!

 

[Magikman]

Ok I can understand the reflectors...LOL

but why the stickers....If I was going to custom paint it I would but then that would defeat the LTD choice,right?

 

[Magikman]

I looked at a nice alpinestar one peice black and gray one for $1,200 is this the normal price or is thier better deals out there?

 

[Magikman]

Well today for the first time I have topped it out and I was wondering if it is normal for a little wobble in it at about 190+ ?
If not what do I need to do to it to stablize it?

"but why the stickers....If I was going to custom paint it I would but then that would defeat the LTD choice,right?"

les-- you lost me. See all those white garbage stickers polluting that beauty?

re: 186MPH-- I sure hope u finished saving up for protection prior... I'm old fashioned, but I'm a firm believer folks should be getting used to the bike and breakin her in steadily as u grow to know her. U got 1 life...

Re wobble--I've never exceeded 185 on the speedo (as far as I can tell anyhow)-- but there was no wobble. I would hate to think what a wobble would feel like at 185...

Welcome to the board Les

First...Please get some gear, especially if you're gonna be topping her out.

Second...If your baby is wobbling at the top end, then there are problems. Not to disrespect you, but it may be some unintentional rider input causing the wobble. Stay in control, stay tucked in, and stay relaxed with your grip. Any twitchy or nervous inputs can cause a LOT of instability at higher speeds. Wobbling after a shift is due to rider input...I cause it myself sometimes.

Ride safe

it will go faster, good for you, just remeber to hold on tight and open your eyes every once in a while

Nice riding gear...

Seriously dude chill out...havin the bike a month,topping her out,and wearing that ridiculously lookin outfit while riding that beautiful machine...sounds like a recipe for disaster

 

[nitrousjunkie]

Welcome to the board Les,..........if she wobbles at 190 take some of those stickers you have and put on the front wheel, you know for balance.......just kidding bro....take care
