Johnny's HAYABUSA.

Answering to nobody
At last, took delivery of my new 'K6' HAYABUSA.

I'm extremely happy with it, very comfy, very torquey and turns in so much easier than the BIRD.
Its got '27' miles on the clock now and on its original back tyre :rolleyes:

Should be run in within the next few weeks. R#?

Busa v BB

Hi Rhino
Bike looks good, I have had 2 BB, now have a Black Busa, seat position for pilot is more sporty, but for the pillion the seat to pegs is very similar, like a couple of mm different, my wife finds the busa equally as comfy as the BB.
Just take care cos they are quick. and yes tyres wear out 1000mils quicker than on the bird fuel consumption is very similar i find, 40 mpg average, all in all a top bike :yo: enjoy see you at squires

Nice one, you have just confirmed my thoughts entirely.
There's loads of room for the pillion and my cockpit is actually comfier so far for me and gives me greater confidence as i feel attached to the bike as opposed to being perched on it. The power difference is remarkable, i thought they were evenly matched until yesterday :lol: :lol: oh dear, how wrong i was.
Love it...........should have bought one years ago. :yo:
