Would it be possible to fit some paso bodywork to the Busa?

Enjoy the "Ultimate Street Bikes" & keep us posted, just because it sin't a Paso does not mean we are not interested :thumbup:

Steele ... I saw a busa this weekend in the CycleCat tent @ VMD - it said somthing funny on the tank - "400hp". Holy turbo. Got some pictures & will post them soon in the galleries. Wait til you see the clutch basket on this thing, nevermind the exaust and the other goodies!

I figure you're enjoying the new beastie, regardless of how it may look. Enjoy the new club too! ;)

Steele,
maybe you'll enjoy these photos about an impressive Hayabusa tuning made in Italy by Robby Moto Engineering with RAM special parts: http://www.specialmag.it/html/news10702.shtml

Unfortunately the article is only in Italian, but some data are quite readable... basically they used a Turbo kit, a new reinforced swingarm + rear wheel and new steering plates.

Performance is impressive: 284 hp at 9000 rpm, with the turbo pressure limited "only" to 0.6 bar! :eek:

.... BUT....

Paso is much much much nicer! :cool:
