Busa for Quasi ?

[Quasievil]

A Quasibusa?

Very good rep for you mate

[BigB]

Hi Quasi

I tried both the Busa and the Blackbird when looking for the new bike. Both are excellent, I'm 6'2 so it had to be comfortable. Went with the Blackbird on price in the end and loving it (except the seat which we are getting re done)

It's down to personal choice at the end of the day, but you have to test ride. The guys in the Auckland shops had no problems with me test riding the Busa as they had second hand ones in at the time.

Had alot of fun

cheers

Two words Brett - "Busa" an "Turbo" , fuck yea

Lou brought up a good point though, the Trumpy Sprint ST would be worth a look, (not as) Big Dave (anymore) had one (still got one?) for a while, i reckons it's a pretty trick looking peice of kit, and with the right rider could hack it with the sport bikes too, and still be comfy as, but what do one of them go for compared to the Busa? O and the ST sounds fkn cool with a set of pipes on em too.
You know my thoughts on the busa already and don't listen to Flame she doesn't have a clue whats she's on about, just when you thought she'd got it right on the K5 she buys a Ducati must be a chick thing

As LB says Busa & Turbo! and maybe a nice little bottle of NOS to go with it....

every busa pilot will say get a busa, and every bird pilot will say get a bird.

i rode both, tried to be objective, subjective, reactive, proactive, sensible, silly etc etc, and still came back to the bus. a good comment up the page, was the busa is just that - a busa, and has the potential to be a bit 'angrier' than the bird (eve if that's just a perception).

the tyre man will be happy if you buy either bike.

weren't you saying just yesterday though that you were considering getting out of bikes?

and i rode the TL for the last time last night (it's now sold) and the power felt like a scooter compared.....

Sprint ST anyday!
Its classy. It looks good. It has a great seat. Lovely controls, great dash.
The busa is just getting a bit old.

Sprint ST The busa is just getting a bit old.

its a 2006 I know what youre saying but they make improvements every year, mostly cosmetic, but doesnt that say something about the bike, will the ST be around in 6-9 years (whatever it is) in its current form ?

Does it need to be? Sure you get little improvements along the way, but until you go and ride them, make sure you stay away from the "because its a busa" kind of thought pattern (not that I'm accusing you or anything!).

I'd love a busa, sure. But if I had to choose between the busa and the sprint, i'd pick the sprint. But all you're going to get on here is opinion. So go ride them!

If I listened to people here i'd probably have a gsxr :P

Oh and add a Ducati ST3 to your list of bikes to look at. Similar to the sprint.

Mate i would love a Ducati but the ST3 and ST4 are nothing but FUGLY, and I love Ducatis

[Marmoot]

pooftas......you need either an SP1, R1 or Ducati 999.
Good luck with your marriage, though

[cowpoos]

need I say anything.... oh.... maybe just say $19,990!!!

Thought it fitted in quite nicely with the bikes you listed.
*shrug*.

A long shot but... keep a look out for any K5s still on the lot.

Dunno if they're out there anywhere but it could save you a few bucks.

Enjoy the new ride whatever it may be
