new busa

i am amazed by the technology packed into my new 2009 busa. this one rides so much smoother than the last one.

im in love again.

riding home

it was a hot week for riding...headed home.

new busa

decided on a 2009 silver hayabusa sold locally...cant wait to pick it up!

orange hayabusa

i am leaning toward an orange hayabusa...

this is a 2004 with only 500 miles on craigslist...

too far for me to go check it out, though.

r.i.p. hayabusa

my beautiful busa was parked in my front yard the other night and somebody stole it. wow. why? it was bad, thats why. and so were the other four sport bikes that were also stolen that night in my hood. its not the money- a wont get back what i paid for it, just bluebook for a 2002-its the violation. it was just a bike... a bike i spent six months looking for. now its probably disassembled and dirty, laying around in some greasy garage or shipping container. sucks...

shopping for motorcycles on ebay

found this 2005 hayabusa on ebay today...might need it.

2002 hayabusa carbon fiber fender swap out

i was working on my post re: rams cycle installing my new black/charcoal houndstooth carbon fiber fender on the hayabusa, when i looked at the 'before' shot with the brushed aluminum fender...wow: not sure the darker one is the answer, design-wise. it kind of makes the front end of the hayabusa dissappear into oblivion. may have to get it painted to match the lighter colors. the carbon fiber is a performance upgrade, but i think the solid, consistant color gives the bike a more solid, armor-like look.

new fender for the busa

dropped the busa off at ram cycle for them to install the new fender...only took a few minutes and it looks sweet!
