Haters, lol, granted, even i think trike conversions are gay and ******* retarded...there is more to the sportbike world than leaning a bike over. But this "Triabusa" is definately not apart of the "more" world.

"Not hating on the guy who posted this thread"

yeah but on the other hand, I can't think of a time when twin turbo i in any way better then a single accept when there isn't a single big enough to push the air needed. twin turbo is just flat out stupid on 1300cc. I'm sure the bike is somewhat fast but a stock 89' civic could prob take it in the canyons. OK so the bike wasn't made for corner carving but i bet a 06 R6 could take it on the quarter. OK so its neither for the quarter or the twisties... well it FUGLY!!

Don't be stupid.

Sure its an ugly bike, doesn't handle, and is pretty dumb as far as design goes....however, Its not THAT slow.

tha busa is strickly show, it wouldnt handle right. immagine it approaching 150 mph on a slight (where we would lean on a normal bike) you would turn the handle bars and die.

ur right. for the people who are putting it down because its not functional, well there is a reason its parked at a bike SHOW and not at a bike RACE. the point of these show's is to be as out of the box, flashy, and attention grabbing as possible. this one was so attention grabbing it got us talking about it and im sure most of us never even went to the show so it must have done its job. so just reminding people its fine not to like it but dont put it down because it doesnt do what you think it is supposed to (accelerate, lean, handle, etc.) when in reality it does do what it is supposed to do, get attention. but i dont like it at all

You wouldn't have to go anywhere near 150 to get killed by that thing, but yeah like was said, its a piece of gaudy art to ***** attention at shows. And it probably does its job well. 26's. hahaha.
