I don't get it...most of what you guys are asking for is sorta "RR Liter Bike'ish" to me...I love my busa "For What It Is" therefore I'm not left wanting "For What It Isn't"...I lost a good chunk of weight going to a full system aftermarket exhaust...about 30lbs lighter.....but I ain't certain I'd want my busa to lose a full 100lbs as...it may not be as stable at high speeds nor as "planted feeling" during windy days S/T'ing on the superslabs...then again?.....I live in florida...where the majority of roadways are long, straight, flat and fast...as this is..."BusaLand".

L8R, Bill.

+1. Warp speed!

Not to be a jerk BUT most the busa riders I meet are 250 lbs + and they all want to shave a couple pounds off the busa.

More cc's? Cool for bragging rights, but most the guys wanting a 1500 haven't topped out 5th gear I'll bet. The 1000's are getting smaller and more compact every year-not going to work for me, sorry. I hope they don't start scaling the busa down, too.

sure would like to see something other than speculation

spot on bro---im a big guy and a busa is about my only comfy choice

Higher handlebars . lower foot pegs, kick a$$ exhaust. and a slight bump in HP. That would be all the busa needs .

If you are referring to wheather or not there will be a revamp in 07, one thing points to at least a powertrain upgrade. New Euro emissions standards start in 07 which will require minimally engine management and exhaust updates. I dont see why Suzuki wouldnt give the entire bike a facelift considering how efficient they are at it (ie updated supersports every 2 yrs now).

Will it look like the photo that's floating around, who knows. I hope not, its just the Stratosphere concept with sharpened busa bodywork. Either way, I bet it will perform as the the Gix1k did every new release, which is better than everything else.

in some way being a fat a$$ its stable. more power sure but 90% of the time its not going to be used. a new look for the king
