Looks good. I'm not a fan of that swing arm though.

I have seen it before and Well you are all wrong and of course you have the right to be wrong. (Well most of you any way)The stock Gen 1 Busa is the best the bike ever looked. The Gixxer tail makes the rest of the body work silly. So does in my opinion all of those stretched lowered rigs that never see a drag strip
The design if for aero dynamics not for appearance. I love my Busa for what it is not what I can pretend it is. It is a premium SPORT touring Chassis capable of extreme top speed. What Gen 1 lacked from the factory was brakes and these are easily upgraded.
It is not an R1 a 1098 or Gixxer 1k it is foolish to pretend it is.
Of course this is just the opinion of an old crochety gun totin redneck

I think the skinny tail makes the rest of the bike look fatter than it already is. I am not a fan.
