BUSAS R BETTAH!!!! I'd rather ride a busa then a 1k gixxer anyday... busas are more comfy and well suited for long rides not to mention faster and 1k's are too light in the front to actually keep both wheels on the ground to launch quickly unlike the busa which tends to stay down a bit more.. My personal opinion.. I had a busa as most of you know and a gixxer 600 and now I got a R1... I will have another busa.. the R1 is just to hold me till I get some money...
