When are Busa riders gonna confess up
Went for a ride with some friends yesterday and one that has got the beat down already with their Busa won't even try me but the newest guy is just that "NEW" but he has the same bolt on mods as my 14 with a Hindle pipe kit, PC, air box modded, gearing, yada, yada, yada. Well I baited him by messin' with my friend on his 1000 and let off the throttle slightly so that the Busa could hang.....LOL. After that I slowed to get into 2nd gear and you guys know with 16/43, that is a sweet gear to be in at about 30-40 MPH. Well he too went down in gears and I let him hit and lets just say it wasn't pretty because I ran all of the 4 others gears out to 10,500 and when I lifted it was a total shame. He "FINALLY" caught back up and said that he took off in 4th and all that so I said OOOOOOOOOO. K. lets do it again but make sure that you get into the right gear sir but for some reason his bike wasn't running right after that so he just would rather cruise it around for the rest of the day but yet he was "STILL" in denial for the rest of the day.
LOL. I love it. Gotta go find another victim. BTW, we do this stuff in a remote, no side streets for cars to pull out area but the track is next. I just got my Shinko installed yesterday too.

First Busa I raced I was ridding it and my friend was ridding my 14.... I got beat by my own bike. After a short ride we stopped and my friend said if he was buying a new bike it would be a 14.

They are finally getting it, it just hurts to admit it. And lets face I think our spot on the top may be short lived. Should know something on June 23rd thats the dealer show and release of the new Busa. But if it's faster which I hope it is thats good the 14 will get updated sooner and this could start a war like in the 1000cc class.

I did see a stupid movie on google video.. it was between a zx14 and a old type haybusa,and the idiot clamed he had eaten the 14..... But the maker of the movie was forgetting a few inportant aspects.....
1: it was a old busa, so not restricted at all....
2: most important the guy on the 14 did"nt even try, ( still had his face above the screen....)
3: it was a black euro model 2007, wich has the euro 3 emission...... no topspeed.
believe me.... after the mods i did here (no spray or turbo) no busa gonna outrun me...!!!

Last weekend they threw everything at my 14. Piped,yosh cam, headwork Busa angainst my 14. No contest midrange or topend wise with similiar weight riders. So they put the lightweight rider on who is easily 70 lbs lighter. A better race now but still no contest. 14 just powers away. Combo of less weight from exhaust removal, street meg really woke this bike up. Best run came from the 05 gixxer rider who was 70 lbs lighter - he pulls even on the shift to 3rd gear. 4th gear bye bye - 14 starts to pull away. Hit 5th and it's a wrap.
The same owner rode the new 07 Gixxer and he was complaining about the midrange. Said the other bikes would pull away then he got a big power hit for the topend. He felt his 05 hada broader powerband where the 07 hit at the top of the power band.
In realitity though as close as the competition is it's a riders race more so then the bikes. I need to work on my diet.
