Hey guys, new bloke here from Bathurst.
I've been drag racing my busa since 08 and retired from racing a bit over a year ago, so now my girl will see a new life as a fighter :)
It will be pretty standard busa fighter, gixxer tail with custom gen 2 headlight. And engineered for the turbo. I'll dial her back from near 400hp to about 250hp for the street. I need to source a frame to get started.
Here is her current state

Mental bike, if I had the coin when it was for sale I would have grabbed it for sure. What bits you looking for and looking to sell? I have some spares and would be interested in some. I think the frame I currently running can be rego'd my spare can not

Cheers mate. It's still for sale lol
Mate I'll have a think, I still got to talk to mick about a swap. I'd be maybe looking to swap race chassis for stock chassis with cash my way

Yella, I'll have the 2 step, air shifter, frame with cut rails and subframe, body work etc for sale. All I really need is a frame. I might buy a cheap gen 1 and sell engine and excess or put in race chassis for a good mod bike
