what about after market shocks that have adjustable height adjustment :angel:

 

 

most of which comes with preload adjusters that causes the change in compression and rebound damping once adjusted...

 

that can also be an option if you are ok with spending a substantial amount of money upfront and still have to tune the suspension to the individual.. :cool:

There's no replacement for displacement except for a blower

ure letting go or tinkin MO on it??

 

 

 

hmm wonder whus the rider of the 08LE :lovestruck:

 

no lah just saw that led rear light design on some US busa forum. so just post and see any local busa wans to have it. I riding 08 so that is not applicable

 

The rider of the 08LE is "NONE". cos there is no LE for 08 or 09. Its just white color 08 busa

 

there is a 06 white LE (nitrain)at the dam and a 08 white (christo)

better or not up to individual

specs wise of course gen 2 have a few upgrades.

1) inverted fork with radial mount callipers

2) brake callipers Plus brake pads

3) higher cc

4) riding posture more frontal

5) harder rear suspension

6) higher compression 12.5:1

etc etc

u see which one u like

and of course the biggest difference is the price!!!!! :deal:

the 2009 Gixxer 1k has really impressive suspension setup... for those considering front fork swap.. this is the one to look out for...

it's no longer using cartridge system but instead a piston for the compression and rebound damping... :thumb:

 

New Showa BPF (Big Piston Front) 43mm fork design eliminates the internal cartridge assembly inserted into each fork leg and instead uses a single 39.6mm upper piston riding against the inside wall of the inner fork tube. The larger piston and shims used in the BPF forks produce more effective valving, with more controlled compression delivering better feedback to the rider.

 

The BPF design relocates the fork springs to the bottom of each fork leg, where they are completely submerged in oil, reducing fork oil foaming and contributing to more stable damping. The rebound and compression valving adjustment screws are indented into the fork caps. Spring preload is adjusted at the bottom of the fork leg assembly. Each BPF fork leg is also 720 grams lighter than the conventional fork tube it replaces.

There's no replacement for displacement except for a blower

I would personally choose GEN2 for many reasons... (if you are comparing stock to stock that is)... :cheeky:

Your height is just fine for a stock busa, but you have to seriously consider reducing some weight (not from your bike though).
