Gen 1 Busa Braking Up-Grade
OK I have had My 05 Busa since it was new. I have always loved the bike. I have the Turbo set-up with the fuel rail. This has been putting a silly grin on my face since the day it was installed in 9/05. The one area where I like most Gen 1 Busa owners have felt like it needed help was the brakes. I have been running stainless lines and HH pads since 06 Recently after purchasing a 08 B King with the Gen II brakes I checked around for a cost effective upgrade.
Here is my most recent upgrade http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/i...o/p9190008.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/i...o/p9190007.jpg I had a local Busa Guru (Gixerhp) do the conversion Dam what a difference! Now My budget does not yet support a conversion to Brembo Callipers but Just adding this to the stock callipers and rotors makes an amazing difference. Much more stopping power and much easier to modulate. Now I suppose I will have to find the cash to convert the Clutch in just the interest of Symmetry |
nice! got a head on shot of the dash?

Yeah some people even go crazy and get forged/billet Brembo mc's.......I think those are like $400 though

Nonot selling the Busa any time soon. Way way to much fun. The upgrade with new pads, lines, Brembo Radial Master cylinder was $650 installed. Now after putting a couple hundred miles on them all I can say is wow. Puts the first Gen Busa in the stopping class as the Gen II bikes and the 05 Ducati I used to have.
I will grab some pictures of the Dash and post it for Dave. Randy you should come up for leaf peeping season and do an independent review of the up grade |
