Good point, you already have access to an R1 and this could give Chris access to a Busa... It's a win-win for both of you.

Yeah a few people have pointed that out. (whereas if I was getting something else he didn't like, then he might not be as prone to let me take the R1 every now and then.

Very true. I'll be happy with whatever she gets, even if she changed her mind and got a (shudder) GSXR.

However i'm partial to the Busa because of the deal we can get on it and we know the maintance done on it and how it was ridden.

Busa.....people may say that I'm partial because I ride one but comfort wise, the R1 can't compare. Besides....you know the owner and if something goes wrong with it, you can make him feel guilty.

Actually while the seat on the Busa is more comfy (and there's more wind protection) the riding position isn't THAT different between the two.

And LMAO!! Nah, I'd never do that...

Both bikes are great bikes.
I would consider maintenance fees, gas prices and insurance for both and go from there.
Good luck with your choice.
