Hey, My name is Ron, i love riding, this is my third bike, first busa, an 01, just picked it up a month ago... she has about 35k on the clock (-1+2, setup, no speedo healer so who really knows), also have a full akropovic system, bmc filter, TRE, PC3, and its lowered 1" all around on yana shiki links.

thats the good... now for the bad.

after my second time out on her, a 100 mile ride, the motor popped on it, acts like it was oil starved but levels were okay and i never got a dummy light, i pretripped before the ride and up until it made a noise i didnt hear anything to cause me any alarm... it sucks but thats life. im going to be looking for a new or rebuilt one soon :/

here are some pics. im in st. louis mo and its been about 30 degrees here so here are some winter pics.

The pickup from florida:

thanks, yes it does, and i have no idea... the starter isn't turning at all, i couldn't pop start it, so i figure its binded... it acts like it was oil starved but again, no dummy light, and had oil in it... so dunno, i will find out more when i get less frustrated and can start with the task of taking it apart.
