A buddy and I rode 400 miles into WV for the night. Getting ready for breakfast tacos and coffee and then a quick zoom home.

Don't do it Doc.

Success!

My red Bandit is OK. It was just a 25mph lowside. Bar end and shifter replaced, rash on the tail section covered with a sticker, and the engine lower side cover will wear the scar for a while. Taking it to the dragon, etc. in a week. The silver bike in the pic was an opportunity I couldn't pass up. It was crashed bad but had a lot of really nice parts for me to salvage. That's where I got the Brembo monoblocks and masters. Today, I plan to swap shocks to put the Racetech built Hayabusa shock in my bike. The engine has 11:1 1216cc pistons, a "Gary Dye" head, and a Barnett GSXR clutch. It'll go in my Bandit over the winter. The forks and frame are totalled. I hope to disassemble the forks to salvage the Racetech valves and springs but I'll probably need a bandsaw because they are so bent. After I scrap the frame, I'll get my half of the garage back.

Made it back from WVA.&VA. Loop visiting old friends from time gone by. Cold and fog the first day but two day's of warm curvy back roads. 621miles. Moto-Mac https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsBAaDfZkbxULiV3c5MohnA/videos?view=0&sort=da&flow=grid

I've never really thought about oning a Busa, but for awhile I was seriously considering a Suzuki B King. Same motor, more comfortable & still stupid fast. They do well for carving back roads & sport touring.
