    St.Kilda - US Style Busa

    I was down at St.Kilda last weekend and I saw this Busa coast by. It was the full US Style Fighter look and sounded pretty mad with a straight out pipe. I carried on walking and noticed it pulled up down at the beach front so nicked down to take some photos and say hello to the owner. Although this is that US style that is just the bolt on goodies and induces detrimental handling, it did look very good and a lot of money had been thrown at it. We can definitely say that this style has crept into Aus as well.........

    The owner was a good bloke and took aa ASF card but I haven't seen him here as yet. If you're here mate, shout out.

    Is anybody down that way familiar with this bike or know the owner?

    The paint was quite awesome in the light of day. I'm sure the paint gurus here will appreciate that part. I asked about the components and they were all from the US, off the shelf numbers.

    That paint's pretty awesome.
    The rest of the bike isn't my style but it's pretty fucking nice and the front wheel and brakes are very sexy too.

    you sure?? i think the one in rapid was the firebrand one wasn't it? they have a shop up here in sydney. unless there is more than one crazy blinged out busa......[V]


    EDIT: i stand corrected. it was in the april or march (the one with the kwaka 600 on the cover) issue. except these most recent photos have the pipe and swingarm like everyone said.
