Pros&cons of hayabusa

[4wd]

Good for you Ducbil. With the discounts dealers are offering on brand new '07's with full warranty (20%), and the easy $85/mo-2 yr financing plan, the '07 is the choice I made too.

Besides, the '08 won't go any faster than the '07, and the '07 has all the factory updates.
Happy trails!

I too chose the '07 over the '08. Figured after all the years of making the same bike they must be doing something right. Not to mention I love the blue color!

(stlbusarider @ Jul. 24 2007,19:19) There is one major con to the hayabusa:

The inability to stop buying upgrades!!!!!

AMEN!!! it's really tough to keep it stock. I've heard there are a few guys out there but sometimes I think they're like the elusive big foot!

I work with a guy who owns a black/purple. All he's done is change the windscreen to a double-bubble. Other than that - it's bone stock. Reflectors and warning stickers are still on...

I hate to thread jack but this begs a response...

no pic, no facts.. j/k... I know a few out there that haven't done any mods, etc but it's a select few. You can easily get the bug and then it never seems to end...

What you'll find is that - red is fastest...

(omslaw @ Jul. 24 2007,07:46) Actually, flash to pass and hazards were added to the '04.  Headlight cut-out started in '05.


Go for a Blue/Silver - they're the fastest color!  

+1 Fastest Colors!!

CON---- NOTHING

 

[Bosshound]

Red / Black Busas are always Faster because they cause Less Wind Resistance. It's a Proven FACT

(ducbil @ Jul. 24 2007,22:13) Thanks for the replies, I went and ordered a black 07 should have it by the weekend. Thanks again.  Bill

You are a wise man among Busas  

Very nice.

Picked up my Hayabusa this morning . Its mid 90s to day but did put 150 miles on. Im impressed how smooth it is. Seat is not to bad, smooth ride not choppy. Great power!!! Thanks again for all the replies. Bill

great power???
you have obviously not opened it up yet -- or it would have read "holy shi7"

 

[SxLxAxVxExN]

I have a blue 07 although I really wanted a black one but I didnt wanna wait. But the blue has grown on me now. Im not too crazy with mods since I have a unfnished car project that keeps asking for more power parts.

 

[whitebusa]

I went almost a year stock........ Then it started and I can't quit.

The '08s have an extra 41cc's

black is probably the sharpest looking of the mono colors, and the debate over which is the fastest color will go on until the rest of the colors finally catch up with the '00 blue & silver. may take a while.
