A rattle canned Busa set up with luggage is my next bike.

i think the busa would be great as a second bike.  my best friend has one and uses it as his daily bike.  the only problems hes had out of it in 15k miles is the starter button messed up from water getting into the switch and the starter gear messing up.  they fixed the starter gear problem after 03 (i think) but other than that hes had no problems.

i love riding the bike and it is a blast in straight lines but like its been said before they dont handle too well.  im sure his would have handled better, but when i rode it he had just bought it and it was lowered and wasnt done properly.

lowering a bike is a great way to compromise the geometry. that's not good for handling.
