Folks-
I finally got Hi-speed internet again, so I am posting finally after several months of dial up. ( To tedious to wait on the dial up now that most folks are adding images etc.)
I need your expertise. My 2004 is still a baby, with just under 4k.( Yeah I know, but blame my work schedule.) Anyway...I have not been able to afford too many significant mods, but I cannot help but wonder if my Busa is lacking something.
I read all about the eye flattening blasting speed and power that I am supposed to have, and I just don't feel it. I have owned several bikes over the years, and recognized the Busa as the pinnacle, but it just doesn't "git" like I think it should.
Right now, I swapped back to 17/42 gearing as I did not care for the amount of engine brake the 16T front gave. So...It is all stock, except for the 2 teeth in the rear, the TRE, Devil pipe Carbon fiber slip ons, and the marble mod.
It runs fair, always starts with no choke, stumbles a little @ an idle, and runs the best in the cooler air. So...nothing apparently wrong. But...like I said, I could see a strong ZX10 or CBR1000 pulling her if the opportunity arose. I may be wrong, but it just doesn't feel that wicked while riding.
Anybody have ANY suggestions or thoughts???
Thanks-
Corso
