Review: I absolutely love this bike. I upgraded from an
SV1000S, and the 'Busa is so much faster it's
unreal. It doesn't whip in and out of turns nearly
as easily, but it is much more stable once locked
into the turn. It does handle a lot better than it
gets credit for and my tires are worn to the
edges. It's also excellent for sport-touring. I
put saddle bags & a tank bag on it and toured
Death Valley for a few days, about an 800 mile
round trip, and it did great. I've had it up to
180, had my hands off of the bars @ 150, and its
about as stable as climbing up giant Sequoia tree.
Power is smooth and limitless. It pulls hard all
the way to redline, and just as hard from 100-180
as it does from 0-100. Downshifting is more of a
bonus than it is ever needed. You hear a lot of
riders on 1000 CC sportbikes claiming that they
are as fast or even faster than the 'Busa but they
don't know what they are talking about. This bike
is as much faster than a 1000 as a 1000 is to a
600. There are very few times and situations where
I can safely open up the throttle all of the way,
but whenever I do it still scares the hell out of
me. This bike is that fast. Over 10,000 miles to
date with absolutely no problems whatsoever. You'd
think that in order to get this kind of
performance you'd have to sacrifice reliability or
have a crazy maintenance schedule, but you'd be
very much mistaken. 3,500 mile oil changes. Lube
chain every 1,000 miles. Air filter every 7,500.
That's pretty much it. I'm even still on the
original front tire and there's still a lot of
tread left. I park it in my garage on a tarp but
so far it has not leaked so much as a single drop
of oil. This is truely an amazing piece of
engineering and a technological marvel. I also
think that Suzuki did an outstanding job with the
new styling for the '08 model. Beautiful bike.
Classic lines. I've been riding for 17 years and
this is my 4'th bike. I will say that under no
circumstance should anyone get a 'Busa for their
1'st or even 2'nd bike. It's just too much to
handle for someone who doesn't have enough
experience. Features: The mind-blowing acceleration & stability. The reliability. Styling. Comfort. Pretty much everything. Improvements: I've been trying to think of something but I can't. It is heavy, so I could say that I would like it lighter, but then it probably wouldn't be as stable, and the stability is definately worth the weight. This motorcycle is about as close to perfect as you can get, at least if you like traveling at the speed of light in comfort and style. (03/15/2009 by Baron)
