Such a deal you got. I especially enjoyed seeing ''Kate'' on the bike. If you make more vids please make sure to include ''Kate'' in them , she seems to be a lot of fun, and is very gorgeous.
Hi Ash hope you’re enjoying the bus,don’t know how much you know about busa’s but they eat rear tyres,keep a close eye on the chain and sprockets,the clutches can sometimes suffer with snatching whereby when you pull away the bike will bog down and then all of a sudden launch when the clutch release’s (there are several aftermarket mods for this and also the tokico front brake callipers suffer with brake fade if pushed. Hope this helps,loved both of my 2004 busa’s,great bikes . Enjoying the channel 👍🛵🛵
Thanks mate, I have noticed that even though the callipers were rebuilt this year, and the discs and pads were changed, It doesn't feel like the brakes are good enough for the bike. I'll watch out for the snapping clutch, would want to be looking at the sky after pulling away 🤣
A Hire bus?!! Nice. My mate had one when they were new, in Bronze, I remember when i rode it, i could look down through the screen and see the clocks. Best mod for your bux, is fitting a 1 tooth smaller front, or 3 teeth bigger rear sprocket.
Good evening ash and Kate I hope you are all well and enjoying your adventures on your new motor bike I love watching your you tube channel and your motor bike videos It was nice to see Kate your wife on your you tube channel and video and helping you sort 😮your new motor bike please keep up the good work up on your videos on your you tube channel please keep safe and warm i can't thank you enough for the enjoyment of your motor bike videos
nice 1 had a 1999 same colour payed £6500 for a year old 1 in 2000 gutted airbox fitted hot cams and 4-1 hindle and power comander putting out 215 bhp at rear wheel loved it left black lines when you gassed it ...enjoy mate love the vids
How did it get to that speed on 160bhp? I did a straightliners top speed day at Woodbridge, and not one standard Hayabusa got close to 190mph. My ZZR1400 with mods was making 178bhp, and my fastest speed on the day was 193.9mph. In fact, one Hayabusa rider took his seat off and still didn't manage 190mph.
173 bhp, and I guess it was all down to aero dynamics... I'm 6'2" and I'm no where near able to tuck behind the screen, I guess you have to be about 5" to be able to get behind the screen and achieve the top speed
Excellent choice! I had a 2005 model for 4 years, 165,000km and it still ran - just not as good as new. I progressed to a 2016 Gen 2 and it's such a better bike, everything that frustrated me on the Gen 1 was fixed with Gen 2 and more. Enjoy!!! but watch those breaks, notoriously "not great"!
Got to be bargain of the year mate 👍🏽❤️🏍😎🔥🔥looks in great condition not only for price but age, nice find 👍🏽😎, only just found channel look forward to future content 👍🏽.

What an awesome machine mate. I think I’m going to have to go through my eBay messages because I think I messaged about this bike if I’m not mistaken, it was first put up for sale at £2500. We seem to be looking at the same bikes lol 😂
Haha, sorry mate! Yes, it was up for £2500, I found it and placed an offer of £2200 and went to bed. I woke up the next morning to a message that said they'd accepted my offer. Not expecting that, I had to rush to sell the Bandit to raise the funds 🤣

I tried sitting on a Honda blackbird but I were tip toe on that thing so no chance of me ever getting such a machine. Enjoy it but be careful on it as you found out in the video, still its bloody nice mate so a great buy.
Thanks mate.... It's actually quite low, I'm 6'2" without shoes so I struggle with smaller sport bikes, this fits me very well. Kate is 5'4" and she could ride it, you can always get these lowered an inch, I reckon you'd be fine... go and sit on one and find out
Hi Ash, I swapped my 99 reg one years ago for another bike because I couldn't ride it normally and once I'd done the absolute max on it I thought either licence is gonna burn or I will! Anyway I've got a Haynes for it and other thing's (factory handbook) ect if any use to you? They did have an external tank high pressure fuel pump that are legendary for going wrong and I've got plenty of them as well possibly as getting like rocking horse.
Very nice. The '99 is very collectable, in America at least. Here in California you can find Busa's for 5k and up. That's with with higher mileage and not so pretty.
