i saw that as well. was suprised how it looked from the cam on the back of the 14 that near the end of the track the zx 14 didnt pull on the busa like i thought it would have.... roaring toys is pretty expensive, ive priced some of their stuff before, but heard it was good shit! guess you get what you pay for.

Mere 1/10's seperate these bikes at the strip - at that level, it's all rider.

Still.

Always will be.

Yes, even with the 1400 Busa in 08.

Rider - the other (insert color of choice) meat :P

+1 That was one of the better "Superbike" shows.

Roaring Toyz is down the street in Sarasota FL, soon I'll be putting together a bike ride from Tampa to visit their shop. I'm not into the bling-a-Busa/14 with the chrome, billet and stuff, but they make performance parts as well.

I called Roaring Toyz about the exhaust on there bikes, and they just cut them and put tips. They say it runs great, but then I saw one at bike night like that and it didn't sound very good. I love the looks of that 300 series tire, just not practical for me. Those modified bikes look beautiful!

Met the guys from Roaring Toyz at Laguna... they're cool guys and definetly into bikes. Rob is an AMA racer and into sportbikes, and he told us that he wanted to make really high quality custom stuff so people into custom bikes could have access to the same high level of quality and finish in the aftermarket as sport riders do...

If I remember correctly on the show they stated NO work had been done in terms of mapping. So more can be had out of the red one whenever they get around to putting a map on.
