Service Manual

[OB_NumbNuts]

Section 7-4
fuel pump is mounted vertically
Petcock has tap handle

section 7-5
arrow #8 points to injector rail, not IAP,

Did they change really early models??

 

[OB_Havabusa]

Nuts-
There is a difference in the '99 model.
The copper was different than the black- that is why the copper is faster. Also the copper has more cut out problems, so you don't pull too many bike lenghts ahead of your riding mates. Beating them by 2-3 lenghts will still do...

 

[OB_NumbNuts]

oh
Does that hold true for the '00 models.
Is the blue '00 different to the black'00 and the red'00 ?

intrigued Nuts

 

[OB_Johnnycheese]

So was mine

 

[OB_Johnnycheese]

not in my book

 

[OB_Cisco San Jose]

average rider on the copper/silver or black or red/silver or blue/silver will get average speed and will not beat a really good rider on the same bike. It will boil down to who will tune your bike to the best optimum performance.Copper, Red, Blue they are all fast but it takes the rider to go the extra mile and speed and performance.My $20 worth

 

[OB_Havabusa]

C'mon guys,
I was only joking, I got the copper for the same reason most people chose their color back in early '99:
IT WAS THE ONLY ONE THE DEALER HAD AT THE TIME, AND I REALLY WANTED A 'BUSA!!!

Sorry nuts;
was there an answer to NN's original post??

 

[OB_NumbNuts]

Hava

In response to your post I was playing too, but the first post is true.

I was wondering if anyone knew why
that is all!

Nuts

 

[OB_2Fast4U]

Damn, and I was hoping red WAS faster......

 

[OB_NumbNuts]

2Fast4U

red can't be. In the manual it specifically states black and Charcoal are faster. section 7-3

 

[Guest]

Nuts needs to read the rest of the manual. Section 10-1, specification differences between the blue/silver(special hp version) and all others.

hehe

 

[OB_NumbNuts]

um, I hate to worry you, but if you continue and read the fine print, last line on inside back cover, it categorically states, and I quote....."black and charcoal have been proven to far out run, out dyno, out class and generally look far better than any other make, colour, or sex of motorcycle, automobile or other machine used for any mode of transport."

So, what they are trying to say, in 5 easy to understand words are...

Black and Charcoal Is Best

so there!!

anyway, anyone know the answer to my first post???

Nuts

 

[OB_Johnnycheese]

NN I have been answering it.
DUH
Mine does not show what yours show.

 

[Guest]

[OB_NumbNuts]

Johnnycheese

Only need to post if it anyone is interested....

It just intrigued me!!!

Nuts

Did you see the vertically mounted fuel pump and regulator?? that would have been a far better setup, I wonder why they changed it??
