[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] MAYBE?

it's just that it's hard to beat 180hp (stock form without anything done to it) with a single cylinder motor, or even a twin 2 stroke no matter whats been done to it. i spent almost $8k rebuilding my 760 when it blew up!! it makes 65hp at the tire. i paid $15k for my busa quad done only had to ad the plastic and now elka shocks. but go up to the fast guy at the hill and ask him how much he has spent on broken parts getting to the fastest class. there heavier and alot more fab work but the brute power (be like putting 1500hp in a street car) is hard to describe.


the only thing i have had trouble with was the +12 swing arm, broke 2 but one was my fault (don't jump it the way i did[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]) and the other was an alum arm that just wasn't strong enough (now have a chrome moly arm that will last forever) but idle around all day,putt putt with the kids and go run the fastest at the park and most always win.

If I had the money to get one I would do it in a second.
You won't be rebuilding your motor every other weekend on the busa but with a alchohol banshee they are great bikes but they are big deep money pits I know I used to have a tricked out banshee.

If your truly serious and have the money in the bank that your ready to part with, Contact Dstroyer.
He built a gxsr750 bomb and is now dropping a gsxr1000 in a rappy. He might have time to do a busa later this fall.
But if your not ready to drop some serious cash, dont waste his time.
We get too many people that think this can be done in a weekend for few thousand bucks.
