What Did You Do To Your Busa, Today?

[BigBSBusa]

Is a gen1 fairing harder or easier to remove than a gen2? I have only had gen2's.

Easier in my opinion.

Easier in my opinion.

Hi. I just picked up some more parts for the tank fuel drain. This is going to be a $ 190.00 drain line! But I ill be able to remove most of the line less weight by using a Jiffy-tite dry break fitting Pt # 31306 and Pt # 32406 and a Russell shut off valve Pt #650633 and some other AN 6 fittings and hose.

Yesterday I removed the Soupy's riser from my black 19. After riding my new grey one I realized I liked it more without the riser. I also put the stock WS back on.

I am waiting for tank/new pads, and lowered pegs on the new grey one.

Today I ordered a new pair of Michelin Pilot Power tyres.
$299 delivered!
I mean . . . that is the best deal I've ever seen for these tyres!!
So that's US$198.
Have any of you USA people ever seen these tyres this cheap?
and I don't care that the rear is a 180/55, I've used a 180/55 before and they work just fine . . .

Front sprocket came in. Going to install next week sometime.

Replacing all 3 components at once?
Any change in sprocket size(s)?
Why EK chain brand (just curious your choice)?
What's the little bag of goodies to right of R sprocket?

I want to change mine but I only got 1300 miles on it... basically brand new ‍

With perfect service / clean /lube RJ saw 21,000 miles on the stock chain. My brother saw 3000 on same chain in good weather, but it developed a bad spot.

For some reason message was cut short.
9000 on chain above EK ZVX3

 

[Jbaby1969]

I didn’t actually “do” anything to it. I did order lowering links, riser spacers. My new helmet should be here tomorrow or Tuesday. The rest of my week will be cleaning and installing auxiliary lighting.
