Pashnit Photos: 2010 International Motorcycle Show

[pashnit]

One interesting thing about the shows is hobnobbing with industry people & see the new gadgets.

Read the specs on this battery. And half the size. This is one of their prototypes and we talked to them about selling these. 240 CCA! Sheesh!










That's all folks - go to your IMS show if you can, great fun!

Good shots! I wish I got to walk around with no crowds... I got way too many people in my pics. Show was better this year but packed.

Lets throw this in ... one more time, say "4 SALE!"

Great pics Tim, thanks for letting me attend the show from my recliner. So are you going to use another Hayabusa to lead your tours,after your bike sells, or are you going with something else?

Time for another Hayabusa. I'd like to get an 08 in blue, but one with silver rims, then blue silver & mod the whole thing out again. The webpage of mods on this bike (when printed) is 16 pages long & this bike has even been featured in a two page spread in Sportbike Magazine.

So yes, it is for sale after 7+ years of miles & smiles. Everyone seemed to think it was a fair price given the mods. Also have a whole bunch of spare parts (two gas tanks, 7 windscreens, spare plastic, etc, etc)

Plan is by Spring. First Pashnit Tour is middle of March so I'm on a deadline. If it doesn't sell, no worries, Can easily ride it another season.

The downside is 1/2 the people that know this bike that swung by said you can't sell this. It's too iconic of a bike & represents the soul of the pashnit site.

One fella even offered to custom paint a Gen-II in the '00 blue/silver paint.

What do you think of that!

 

[skydivr]

I think a GenII custom painted like yours would be AWESOME

I'm pretty new to 'busa's and even I think of Pashnit tours when I see that color scheme. Can't you just write it off, and keep it on display? THEN buy an '08 and go from there?
It is kind of an icon. I remember the magazine write ups and everything. It was pretty much the bike (and your fantastic pics) that made me want a 'busa from years back....
Don't do it.............

And thanks again for the pics, love those old Honda Z's... I had a Z50 when I was 5. Love you Dad....

I agree the blue and silver is a pashnit icon.
