Well my o3 turns in a like a 600 and it goes like a 219kg wet Busa
it handles long trips (helibar handle bars) it brakes like a R6. And i did 6000 klms in 10 days with a pillion and luggage. And i am not playing marbles anymore with some of U.
Gee my 06 busa after 9months I only had 1200Ks on it
nemises if you road kawasukis bike if would send you broke or mad.The riding position is the only familiar feeling to a standard busa,the rest is so massively improved, you won,t want to ride yours home.
Second day of ownership 2600klm.
Bike serviced at then end of the first day.

I rode a guys KLT1200(or something like that) - one of those full dresser "Bavarian Money Wasters" with the GPS/Cruise/ashtray etc.
into town for an older guy cause his Doctor had told him not to ride it.
It was 10 years old and had 800kms on the clock. Three hundred and fifty of that was riding it from the shop in Melbourne to home.
- It was completely gummed up and took a bit to get it running.
End of story - he sold it to a bike shop, who in turn sold it to his neighbour.
Go figure?

Me - I commuted from the Central Coast to North sydney every day, a 200km round trip. 1000km per week, Roughly 48000km per year, for 4 years.
That didn't include weekend fun riding. - funny thing though, the speedo was somehow disconnected, so it doesn't really count now does it.
