We all "don't need" stuff like better shocks or brakes, but making the Busa handle better makes it safer for me. I see it like an insurance policy... If I never need it, it's still a good investment IMHO.
Also,
Quote:NEVER, NEVER, NEVER use bricks to hold up your busa while you work on it
Ah, but I have reasonable faith in those that were working with me!
I guess when I started riding people said stuff like, "NEVER NEVER NEVER ride a bike... you will always end up having a serious accident...", though we know that risk levels depend on how much risk you take, which is why we were all EXTRA careful while it was on bricks... Sure, we could've put it off for a few more weeks and found another way to do it... but I could've also just driven the Volvo and never bought a Busa to start with...
I hear what you're syaing though and appreciate your concern... I promise that I'll never put it on bricks again, unless I really really really have to.
Cas, I'm putting the shock in the garage with all the other OEM spares... maybe to replace if I ever sell my Bus... why, do you know someone who may want it?
