2004 Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa, blue and silver. Bought it new, it was my first bike, and 19 years later it's still as fast and reliable as it ever was. My wife and I love to go for rides together on it. Nothing else gives us quite the same sense of freedom.
Your first bike was a busa and you survived?
Yes, took the rider course and the experienced rider course, and respected the machine. Having more power can actually make for a smoother and safer ride. No need for 9k RPMs to get moving. It's responsive in any gear, at any speed. It's a lot less twitchy, more predictable than smaller bikes.
