Hi everyone. I'm not new to motorcycles (rode a 750 Nighthawk last), but its been about 8 years. I'm looking for a bike for a quick blast around town in good weather and then back in the garage. Mostly I'm looking for a 0-60, 0-100 kind of bike (get the "need for speed" out). I'm not going to race at the speedway or use the foot pontoon method on takeoffs, but want a bike an intermediate skill rider could get the better times out of....
I'm thinking either a Honda 919 or Hayabusa (or ???).
I know, big difference, but can the Busa put it down without being wheel up to a hundred...?
TIA for any comments and your experience.

Welcome! :twfrox:

I will say get a 12R... something a little different than a Busa... too many of those school buses out there anyway... but it definately sounds like you are trying to but a high power sport turner type bike.... what about a VFR?

Then what do you want to call bikes such as a VFR...ect....

And I'm not saying 12R because it's a Kaw...I'm saying because I'm not a fan of the Busa...

Turner... Touring.... what ever... I knew it didn't sound right but everybody would understand what I'm trying to say... kinda like some of your posts (needing a Twisty de-coder).... but I wouldn't own either... so what's the difference...

Everybody see Twisty's clarification...
