  • Thinking of buying a Hayabusa, bye bye kat 11

    Currently own a 88 kat 1100 and have my eye on a busa first generation, say a 2002 thereabouts

    Anyone made this switch? what is the ride like on a "busa" vs the "kat 11"

    I've ridden my brother's Busa and everything the Kat 1100 does well, the Busa does better top to bottom ...... I'd go for it without hesitation as long as the bike hasn't had the crap kicked out of it.
    The people who think they know everything always mess it up for those of us who do .....

            I too would eventually like to try a Busa. For now, the Kat 600 is my ride.
            What used to scare me is now only mildly interesting

                i'd say go for it, but keep the kat if thats possible?
                if you gotta sell then by all means go for the busa, they're slick bikes
