Took my Busa in today for a service and got the valves checked. Been a little behind schedule both time on the valves. The good new is, not a single one out of spec. Proving to be a bullet proof engine just like the XX was - part of the reason I decided on the Busa. These engines are so solid and well built, and rarely driven to a point that puts any strain on it.

Bought the bike with 9k miles on it, end of 2009. Handle bars are raised an inch, which helps some. Helibars would be better IMO. Footpegs still stock, although I think dropping them a bit would help. Just haven't splurged on them yet.
