Got sent this link by a friend, we both had a chuckle at this dude ranting on about some trans fault in the Busa, that neither of us seem to have...

Can you guys make any sense of this?

You cant trust someone that buys a new one every year and complains about them being the same. Hes a slow learner if he hasn't cottoned on to the models not changing a lot. So even if they are due to launch its replacement I don't think this guy needs worry about a lack of power on the 2015 model. Its unlikely he uses half a busa load of power. As for the dislike of the front tyre on the bike. If you don't like them pick a different tyre and buy that instead.

Disabled comments means he was suffering abuse online.

Stopped watching about a third of the way through. He sounds like a guy who bought a bike, rode it too fast for his skill level, fell off and broke a few ribs. So it's the Busa's fault. Yeah, if you don't like the multi-compound tire then buy a set of tires you feel confident on and fit them.

What a load of crap. The guy cant ride.

Maybe Suzuki should circulate this guy's picture. Anyone who can whine about a bike that long without any facts should be banned from owning or more likely test riding one.

I bet he loves a good comspiracy!

I like the guy. He has a very good grip on himself and he is banging on it very well. Wonder if he hit his head also when his glass tyre lost traction.

Yes I kinda figured he's a bit of a wet blanket that would struggle with the "power" of a Corolla, never mind a Busa.

The phantom transmission problem I couldn't wrap my head around, bit like a noob not knowing that to select first from standstill might require a little bit of clutch release...

Aliens gave him an anal probe that pinched a nerve connected to his left foot.

Favourite quote at 5min. "I ride, I know" apparently that's the only qualification you need, to know.
The dude is a bit stoned, that's what is giving him the demeanour of being uber knowlegable about something he knows fuck all about while being bit smug about it at the same time.
Attention stoners, that's how you come across.
He makes a cool Bike noise at 5.30. If a hayabusa made that noise, I'd definitely be taking it to the shop, probably on a trailer.

So far - nearly 12,000 Km on my Busa since I bought it - Filtering everyday - and yet, I have managed to Stop fine all this time.

Not only that - I managed to do it without Breaking ribs...

Maybe I'm riding it wrong?

Your fine yours is a bit old to have the dodgy gearbox and conspiracy theory glass compound tyres.

Well - I took a 2014 model out for a test ride, and that stopped fine too....

You must have been riding on a suction cup or that guy cant be trusted.

You got further than I did, quickly realised it was a moron having a rant and not worth watching.
