Busa got a leaky...lol...lol....lol..
Four of my friends and myself went riding Sat night and ended up in Ybor City in Tampa... Ybor City is kind of like New Orleans with Night Clubs .. Bikes and cars cruise up and down the main street but you do more stopping than cruising...... We were parked watching the Girls and cars and bikes stroll by and what we see is a 06 LE Busa over heating and puking its guts all over the street ....lol.... Later we are ready to leave and head out on the main drag and like everyone else we are at a dead stop.... My zx14 made me very happy and never got over 3 bars on the temp gauge... The bike has 1360 miles on it now and seems to run cooler now even in the summer heat....I have done nothing to the cooling system , no water wetter or other tricks other than breaking in the bike ..Most if not all my break in was done at the drag strip... Poor Busa guys ...lol...lol...

Yup it's a rider Vs rider most times ... My zx14 with at 5 inchs over went 5.90s no spray, so i would say that zx14 rider needed some more seat time .. .. I have seen both a zx14 and a busa go 11s in the 1/4 mile and we both know it's not the bike ...
