Hi all my name is Gary from brissy, just bought a 2000 model busa first one, also have xjr1300 2008 model. Bought the busa from maryborough 2 weeks ago had fuel issues riding back bike kept stoping, I think it might need a new fuel pump and filter will change on Friday, ill see how it goes. Cheers
Hiya Gary.
Let us know how you go with the fuel filters. There are quite a few of them in there...
hey Gary...
you might want to start with checking fuel lines.. if kinked they restrict fuel and will make the busa die right after high revs. These babies are thrity LOL
to the club Gary. We need pictures of you new ride here pronto for an approval as per clubs regulations
Hope you will sort the fueling problems quickly

....especially the fuel hose coming down from the fuel tank. It tends to kink when the tank comes down if it's not turned the right way.
Thanks guys ill take that on board, ill post pics soon as I can not sure how to from iPhone 5.
G'day Gary

Congrats on your purchase, mate. Don't worry too much about the fuel issue, you'll get it sorted soon enough....it's just a small hiccup on the way to experiencing motorcyclings most aWeSoMe display of sheer brute force ever!!!

You mentioned gold forks! Yours have been updated to a later model. The 2000's had silver forks from what I recall.
Well changed fuel pump, was pretty dirty I think the tank has a bit rust in will have to fix that, I think it's tip over sensor will have to silicone the sensor, see how that goes!
