I have the Helibars, lowering links (I'm 5' 5"), throttlemiester bar ends, extended windscreen etc la la la, and I just came back from a trip to Sturgis from Oregon via Colorado (1900 miles, 23 hours straight riding) and I can say I am very inpressed with the 'Busa. My right hand is still numb after 8 days, but I think I have sarpal tunnel, and it usually goes away (on shorter rides) after a day or so. I was amazed that my but never hurt. I think the Busa's great, but I think te FJR would be the better long distance machine.
