As a guy who likes to build thing this is dam sure imaginative and demonstrates a very high level of skill.
IN the process he has dropped 100 plus pounds off of what drive train was designed to pull and 6 inches off the wheel base. In stock configuration the 06 Busa drive train will produce 150 to 155 rwp ( this machine is a PC3 and pipes away from an easy 170 rwhp a and a $800 big bore kit away from 200 RWHP and if you are sick enough, a turbo away from 250 without cracking the engine) with torque levels that the still leave the the newest generation of I4 envious with peak torque between being generated between 6 and 8 k. and a red line of 11.5. As it sits, this little beasty is power out of the corners that will make the big twin bikes envious (including my 999) and will roll out in the straights with incredible speed. For what he is asking this in an INCREDIBLE buy ( I don't know the man so I am not schilling the sale) This is not the most sophisticated machine out there but this little two wheel package of nasty has got me re-thinking my winter project
