    My New Steed

    I got a new job a couple of weeks back and it's a bit of a trek from home to Ellerslie so i wanted a more comfortable bike and one thats better 2up so i swapped my blade for this bus! it's a better ride than the blade.....but not a fun on the twisties but ultimately more suitable.

    Just one question, it's been around for a while, just wondering if anyone knows it and some sort of history for it? (31URR) it's also had the rear sets changed and the brake switch removed and i'm hoping to find the original or one to replace it??? as the pressure switch cyclespot added doesn't seem to be working so well

    cheers

    Their pretty good, easier steering around town than a ZX12 and don't feel as big as a ZX14, the extra torque makes a difference with a pillion compared to a 1000 too

    Nice Busa

    Yeah, I was sold on a Busa, almost got one, took a couple for a spin.
    If I lived in the USA or Oz where there are plenty of long roads... no better bike, but I really like corners and I figure the SV has just as much power out of corners, and handles them a bit better than a Busa.
    I finally decided that where the Busa excells is well over the speed limit and me being me, would want to be there too often. Enough said
    Anyway lovely bike, take care
