Back story.
It's been a while since I've been in this forum. And back then i did not pay much attention to Busa related items.
I raced my 05 GSXR1000 with head work for years until a busted oil pan caused a spun bearing. Instead of fixing the bike I stored it and bought a 08 busa that my now wife could ride with me instead of fixing a drag bike with a plate. Since then I've been dying to have my dragbike back and a job change is helping make that a possibility. So now I've got decisions to make.
Currently I have a full 05gsxr1000 roller chassis with
0.5 offset forks,
Scott's damper,
12 over Trac arm,
Battery relocated to headlight location.
Catalyst lowered tank.
All catalyst bodywork.
Candy red powder coat all around.
Motor wise I've got
2 full 05 1000 buildable motors.
Back cut 04 transmission.
Yosh stage r type r cams
Full headwork, port, polish, decked, yada yada yada.
Question 1:
Reliability and longevity. What would get the most power on pump gas and not be a maintenance nightmare? Gen2 Busa or anything that fits in a 05 GSXR1000 frame is on the table.
Question 2:
If I go the Busa rout will gsxr tripple clamps and swingarm retrofit to a gen2 Busa?
