Want information !

Hi guys i need information on how to reduce Busa much for drag race and what is safe to extend the swingarm a lot to get the best track.

I don't drag but I read a lot. 4-6" extended swingarm is typical, along with changing the rear shock and spring. Most drag racers running a factory size tire will go with a shinko tire. They're cheap and they have a huge contact patch. Not for cornering. Typically you'll want to lower or for drag racing slam the bike. The Busa is a long bike to start with, unless you beef the motor up, extending the bike isn't all that necessary.

Anything you can remove from the bike is the rule. If all you plan on doing is drag racing the bike then remove the entire rear subframe, rear pegs and all, mirrors gone, that's for weight and aero......definitely get rid of the factory exhaust. In most cases that's 40 lbs. of waste.

Look into light weight after market wheels. Rear wheel is a must for weight and reducing rotating mass.

It gets into the absurd after that. Lots of money little gain. For most it would be wiser for them to diet and drop 50+ lbs. of weight. :head meets wall:
