Won a roll-on against a Busa last nite!
Now, before some of you get your panties all in a wad, I'm not bashing the Busa or making any kind of claims or comparisons about which bike is better, faster, or quicker. I have great respect for the Busa, and only posting to talk about the fun I had.
It's an 06 Busa. Full Muzzy pipe, geared, stretched and strapped. The rider is about 20 pounds lighter than me. I have a Brock's gen3 and pc. We were riding on a two lane highway with zero traffic and about 2 miles of visibility. There is a long sweeper just before about a half mile straight stretch. I was behind the Busa about 4 bike lengths. We both went wot coming out of the sweeper in 3rd. By the time I went to 4th I had pulled even with the Busa, and was pulling away on him hard. Held it until almost time to click to 6th. Probably about 9500 rpms. Had about 8 bikes on him by then. This is the first time I have run the 14 against a Busa, and I'm just tickled. Thanks for putting up with my story.

I know it's common, just the first time I've experienced it for myself on the 14.
Great fun.
