Changing the supension on my 01 has made this bike ride like no other Busa's I know. I went Ohlins shock , Ohlins fork springs and Race tech internals. I replaced the stock stering damper with Ohlins unit. I backed off to setting 2 of 19. Bike turns faster. I have Dymag 3 spoke racing magnesium Wheels. I first left the remote preload on the rear shock at the first notch (neutral). I played with the settings for 2 days, Compression 15 of 40 , Rebound 17 of 40. I finally gave the preload another half turn. Front forks compression 3 clicks up from neutral. Rebound 3 clicks back from full stiff. Preload 4 lines showing. The result, I'm 165 lbs about 180 with full gear. I had to take the rearset feelers off the bike. Right now I have a 6.25 Rear wheel, Metsler M1s. You can really push the M1s but the best tires I've ever had on the busa are Perelli DOT Race Supercorsas. SC1 Super soft compound front, SC2 soft rear. Depending on your skills, If a rider on one of the smaller bikes skills arent up to par your going to surprise a whole lot of people!
