RoaringToyz '08 busa
Such as the ZX14 when it came out, it appears Roaring Toys out of Sarasota, FL blinged up the first redesigned busa. (disclaimer I am NOT into bling)

Doesn't look like they did much to it in my opinion. The wheels are the only thing that stands out to me.

Looks way good! I'm not into the bling either but if I was something simple like that would do just fine.

notice the work around the triple tree such as billet grips and levers and such, notice its cleaned up with mirror block-off plates, etc etc
I'm so not into bling but I appreciate the effort thats go into such fine detail- whether its a motorcycle or a mailbox

You guys need to be a little more open minded of other things out there!!!
Not my cup of tea, but it does look good and as Steve said alot of workmanship is involved, Im sure there will be alot more soon for it...

I think it looks alot better than any of their zx14's simply because they did not overdo it.
I must admit as much as the single side swingarm looks good, I am not a fan of flex!

I have a ZX-14 and I'm not a Busa hater. This bike looks good. I'd ride it in a sec. Very clean. I wouldn't extend it anymore than that because of the way Suzuki made the tail to point downward. That wouldn't look good to go any longer than that. I'd like to see the swingarm side of it as well.

I don't like the chrome wheels. I think a simpler black rim would look better. I love singel sided swingarms but those wheels take the focus away from the swingarm.
I love Busa's and 14's so no bias here.

Since the bike is custom built for some poseur who isn't going to take it out of 1st gear in its life...
Nah, sorry - I just can't make excuses for it. Ugly, and stupid. Way to wreck a nice bike.

yup, if you hinged that rear cowl, it would make a great mailbox!

hinged is funny, but I suspect that rear seat cowl comes off the busa in a more intelligent manner than the FOUR SCREWS I have to remove every time I wanna' ride a chick on the back of my 14.
