i know this site is home to a bunch of power-junkies (i'm guilty too), but hey riironman-do you have anywhere in easy riding distance that will allow you to "open'er up" THAT much? don't blow $$ on mods just to shut your bro up. The Busa is dam fast, and while the k5 Gixxr is lighter, IT STILL MAKES LESS POWER. plain n simple. Take him to the drag strip, strap down your front 2", let sum air out of the back tire, n smoke his butt senseless. after he gets tired of chasing you down the 1/4mi, ask him to do a roll'on in top gear from 65 to 120+, and watch him struggle to stay in sight on your mirrors.
Pound for pound, Busa kicks the pants off everything out there. end of story.
