Welcome to the "Busa Brotherhood". Pity you didn't get a gen2 Busa cos they got brakes that actually work    Get ye on the ukbusas forum.
http://www.ukbusas.org/forum/

We're a (mostly) friendly bunch on there and what the members don't know about Busas isn't worth knowing. I've just got a gen1 fazer thou' to add to my Busa and B-King garage......seems like what the members on here don't know about Fazers isn't worth knowing too.

Yeah joined there a few weeks back with same name on here loads of useful stuff on there.

• This thing is biblically quick the fz1 wouldnt get anywhere near it in any gear.
• Handles well for a big lass , smooth and precise
• Massive mileage from the tank avaraged 55mpg on the run back from doncaster
• Cruises happily at 100mph and could hear a penny drop
• So much torque you can set off in any gear and ride about in 5th and not have to downshift.
• comfortable on a longer ride but not too big to commute on (have done into Liverpool 3 days this week)
• Silky smooth gearbox no clunk in any gear.
• Seems way ahead of its time this thing is 12 year old and still IMO feels newer and more advanced than my 06 FZ1.

• Bloody heavy machine (Doesnt matter too much once rolling mind)
• Brakes are POO. (working on fixing ATM
• The looks MARMITE (i love it myself)
• Thats it...
