Silver Member Username: DeanerjrPost Number: 195 Registered: Feb-08 | well its what im going to be doing. Having a 2008 Nissan frontier crewcab isnt exactly the thing ive always wanted lol. Im going to try and sell it and make a little bit of money and pay the rest of the note off and then a little off the top hopefully. But i'm looking at buying a 2009 Suzuki Hayabusa. I really dont know sh*t about bikes..so yeah. i know i can do exterior and lighting and make it look good etc, but anybody know anything about adding some speed to this thing? http://www.suzukicycles.com/Product%20Lines/Cycles/Products/Hayabusa/2009/GSX130 0R.aspx?category=sportbike |

"But i'm looking at buying a 2009 Suzuki Hayabusa. I really dont know sh*t about bikes..so yeah." You're looking to buy one of, if not the fastest production bikes made when you don't know anything about them? And you want to make it faster?????!!!! It has 197 hp @ 9800rpm. Top speed is around 190mph. I sincerely hope they don't sponge your azz up someday off the highway. Those bikes are insane out of the crate. |

Going 100mph+ means they will be finding parts of you in MANY places. If you fail at 180+, You better have a Batman suit on. Or else. |

Seen the worst of it and avoided my own disasters. I wanted the cr0tch rocket all my life. Once I got kids though....... It changes your urges, or at these tames them. |

Gold Member Username: RiconissanPost Number: 1021 Registered: Feb-09 | steven, All I have to say is that you need to be a very level headed and patient person to own a Hayabusa. The power is there and the temptation is great. Alcohol is out of the question. Even if you are a social drinker. You need to stop. No matter where you are with this bike, someone will be challenging you to take it to its limit. Everyone of my friends who has had one. (and these guys know how to ride... original Starboys look them up) have given them up because they new "It was just a matter of time" Just my opinion. |

Diamond Member Username: WingmanaliveWww.stainles... .ecrater.com Post Number: 20518 Registered: Jun-06 | Steven, I am currently "bikeless" at the moment. I sold mine shortly after my divorce. I'm a single parent now and can't afford to be laid up in some hospital bed being fed through a tube, or worse. Not to mention car seats don't fit too well on them. I learned on my Father's CB350. My first bike was a Honda Magna. Loved it but eventually wanted more highway power. The bike I just sold was my 1400 Intruder. When my kids are older I'll jump back on one again. I just can't take the gamble until then. I'll tell ya though the biggest transition was going from one of the smoothest engines (Honda's V-4) to a big V-twin. Rumble, rumble. This was taken just before my ride down to Virginia Beach.  |

Gold Member Username: Hittin1TEAM REVOLUTIONLake Charles... Post Number: 3326 Registered: May-07 | I have lost 3 friends who rode crotchrockets. Two of them raced bikes for a living, and the 3rd had no business on a bike. He totaled a truck on the beach (if you can believe that is possible) and bought it with insurance money. I gave him 6 months to live.. He lived about 4 months. I love the looks, sounds, and preformance, but I want to see my children grow up before I die... I KNOW I wouldn't make it very long on a bike like that. I'm too much of a speed freak. Good Luck. |
