What Did You Do To Your Busa, Today?

[Klutch556]

Today was the clutch line replacement. Went with spiegler.
Also ripped the rear shock out, gonna swap the stock spring out for a 16.1kg hyperco spring. Just gotta figure out how to get that spring off/on lol. I got a spring compression clamps but they are too big

No the 1/2 wide 2 foot long tie straps used to secure air conditioning vents or temporary cuffs for bad guys

Took tail off to correct lose sub frame bolts . While at it replaced steel with titanium

Figured I’d go for more weight loss by accidentally grinding down my carbon fibre stand during yesterday’s spirited ride.

Finally got the time to dyno it.. 183hp/147,9nm

Plugged pair, Bmc race filter, Blackwidowexhaust headers and Akrapovic slipons.
The ecu was already mapped for the same setup exept the headers.

What’s the plan for the Yoshi cans?

I pressed the bushings out of the rearsets with no damage but the powdercoater said it wasn’t necessary. He said rubber can go in the ovens but plastics will melt.

I never removed mine and guy powder coated them on the spot, while I waited outside the shop.

You need a conversion axle to fit the CBR wheel, which includes spacers. You will also have to space the rotors out to line up into the brake calipers. No idea on the weight vs R1, but I added a really heavy axle so the combined wheel and axle is heavier than stock.

I'm looking for a kit to put 17" Cbr rims on my gen 1 busa. do you know where to find them?

 

[WuzzaCBXRider]

I cleaned it along with the Z. All except for the wheels. When it got to 90 I went inside. Supposed to cool tomorrow thru the weekend so I’ll finish up then. I also installed this.

Yea just need to compress the spring about 3/4” to get the collar off. Think I got a way... just maybe

Are you going to café racer it?

Are you going to café racer it?

Nope, that lil screen is all I‘m trying. It’s really just to protect the plastic gauge pods and will keep them clean as the screen will be much easier to clean than the gauges. I’ll be trying it in the breeze later today or tomorrow, after finishing up the wheels on the Busa.
