Hayabusa and heavy traffic
This is a video of my commute. Unfortunately I go through traffic like this pretty frequently but I also have long stretches of high speed highway. Looking for a bigger bike for this purpose but it also needs to be able got through this stuff on a regular. Thoughts? Posted this on the Harley subreddit and the general consensus was that a Harley would be a bad choice.

Gsxr wheels on Busa?
So I’ve got a 2002 gsxr 750 with black wheels and a 2003 Busa with gold wheels. Can I put the gsxr wheels on the Busa and what else would I need to swap?

Rebuilding a gen 1 hayabusa
Hey guys I posted here before about rebuilding but I wanted to ask a few things. What type of usual tools should you have on hand? (I know the specialty tools but I mean more generalized) I want to pull apart the engine because of the dreaded 2nd gear jump and a rod knock but want to go ahead and bring it back to original and do the break in procedure
. I have plenty of time to make mistakes but nobody to ask, There is still very little info on specifically gen 1 engine rebuilds on YouTube to just follow but I do have the manual and just need a point in the right directions and tips tricks or advice is welcome and I hope others find this post helpful thanks!

Insurance
Sorry if this has been posted, just haven’t seen much on it.
Own a Gen 3 (2023) and I’m shopping around for insurance getting annual quotes for 5-10k?!?! Been riding for 10 years, owned many different bikes, and never paid over $1,500 for the year. I’ve contacted State Farm, Geico, progressive, all state, etc and they’ve all quoted me for some crazy numbers… I’m just curious what others are paying.
Putting an Edit at the bottom here for commenters to see and for others who are in a similar situation: I called sate farm and told them my problem (insurance too expensive blah blah blah)
Agent says to me: “well technically we have a system that creates the premiums but those numbers can be manually changed, what do you want to pay?” I told them I’ve never paid over “x” amount for insurance, I provided my drivers license number for them to look up, they saw I have a clean record (never got caught lol), and she wrote me full coverage and 50/100/50 liability for $950 premium for the year.

Gen3 GPS tracker suggestion?
Hello all! I need some help with recommendations for Theft Safety tools! I was thinking to install GPS tracker and also get a chain to put it on my bike with pole.
Any recommendations for hps tracker or any other things?

Busa gear change difficulty
Is anyone else having trouble getting their Busa into gear. I pulled up to a stop in 3 rd gear then could not get it into first. Had to let clutch out to stall it. Then tried again. Eventually was able to get into first and get moving again 2022 model.

Gen 2 to Gen 3 new owner… Absolutely amazing bike
Just a stunning all around bike. Easily this is the best everyday ride, my gen 2 was great but this takes the cake. I will never ever steer away from the Busa family, so looking at the gen 3 was an early Xmas gift for me.
Bought it from the original owner on December 18 for $12,500 cash. It has 1700 miles on it (already changed the oil because I’m OCD), AT2 Yoshi full exhaust, power commander 6, recall completed and I just installed the frame sliders and a radiator guard as well. Best bike I've ever owned.
