Still have the trailer.
I thought hey were kiddin, but they had a guy who wanted th color I had and he probably picked it up the same night..
IMO, you've taken a step back in your motorcycle choice. I started off with a cruiser( '98 Vulcan 1500 ) and moved up to a '89 FZR1000. I thought I would ride both bikes but after 3 mos. I sold the Vulcan. Even though it was an '89, from a performance standpoint, the FZR did everything better than the Vulcan.
I understand your family played a factor, but there's no way, short of holding a gun to my head, that I would trade my busa for a cruiser. There's an extreme difference in performance between the 2 and you will miss the busa. If you ever get rid of the cruiser, you will not miss it.
Plus, now you're going to get the snide comments from the Harley guys because you have a cruiser but it's not a Harley.
If I was you, I'd get back the busa and just be a little more conservative with my throttle hand.

Valid points from all, but this was what I fealt was the right decision for me, and I love his thing. As far as a Harley goes, well the Vrod would be the only thing I would have choosen, but the reliability of the Suzuki played a large part, I never had any issues except for the gear shift bolt last week. Not many Harleys with that track record.(Slayer @ Sep. 24 2006,00:14) IMO, you've taken a step back in your motorcycle choice.

I appreciate the comments both for and against the move but my son and I are happy with it. He sits on the back and said it was much more comfortable for him. Nothing like the approval of your son to back up a decision you make.
I still have plenty of time to get another Busa in the future, I will just have to wait and see....if I miss it enough
Nice for a few days and then rain for a few days. We have had over double our normal rainfall this year.

I'm going to trade in my Katana for an m109, that way I can have a cruiser and the Busa...
Also, I'm from Albuquerque. I was out there a month ago. I have not seen it so green in years.

Extremely Low Upkeep....
Harder to get used to a cable clutch and forward controls than anything else..
