Anywhere near the speed limit on the highway you get about 45 mpg.

I have about 2000 miles on it, so I have 2 Pacific NW miles.

The Busa get really good mileage. Ham-fisted commuting will get me in the low 30's, but highway trips, even at 90+ average speed never netted lower than 40 mpg. With a 5.5 gallon tank it's right there for 200 with some cushion.

Re: INSURANCE for a Hyabusa

Yeah I got married. I am coming out there in 3 weeks. Going to take a little southwest tour. We gotta hook up some time while I am out there.

Count me in!

What is the known problem that will strand the Busa and not the XX? Honda doesn't even make the XX anymore, so buying a new one is pretty much out unless you can find old one sitting at the dealer.

You can get em for a song for a reason. Please pick one problem that will leave the Busa on the side of the road, like you stated above. I can't really find one, but maybe you can read better than me.

Blown engine? Coudn't find it.I'm so worried about mine that I might trade it in on a XX. LOL But then I like fast, reliable, comfortable motorcycles that are actually in production. I got a Busa. You got the one that nobody wants. Maybe you need to read this article to see what the Busa is capable of. Too bad you got stuck with a XX. Better ride it forever cause selling it is gonna suck.
