If you are going to commute get the Busa between the excellent chassis and the the depth of the Aftermarket Options you can not go wrong

RACER X · 08-26-2009, 03:51 PM

now i'm kinda leaning in that direction.

all the RC's ive seen are either dropped, hi mileage, and exp.

or nice and exp.

I wouldn't worry so much about the 'high mileage', assuming you're thinking 20~30k is 'high'.

If the maintenance has been kept up, stored indoors, not thrashed, etc. that's not really any worse than a car with comparable mileage.

I recently bought an '06 GSXR-750 with 28k miles at a stupid low price because the owner had himself convinced it was 'worn out'. It only needed chain/sprockets & a little TLC. Hell, the valves were still dead-on, and it feels just as tight (a bit smoother, if anything) as Kathy's when it was nearly new.

prob. is that the RC aren't going for stupid low w/ those kinda miles.

+ they tend to be dropped or beat up

Mr Lefty · 08-26-2009, 04:49 PM

BUSA. unless you have another bike also or plan on only keeping it for a short while.

RC's are sexy as hell... but not what I'd do for every day riding... but drewpy would argue with me.
