You can all have a good chuckle at what it's like to be stuck on a 125 
80 mile round trip to work and back - fun for the most part. Hopefully getting around to DAS at the back end of this year, with a number of other things going on there's just not been the time to get enough practice in.

Don't knock it! You're out in the fresh air, just like the S2K !! and real credit to you doing that mileage everyday.

Personally I think it looks so much better without all the shell suit red graphics.

The Busa has always looked...well...weird, like a sausage dog! Awesome machine though and definitely looks better without the red graphics.
Was speaking to a Ducati rider the other day. Nice guy - bought all the Ducati leathers and had a specials 'Diesel Clothing' edition Ducati.
He'd had the Bike a couple of years and done 2700 miles from new. Told him I did 3300 in the past two months
Diesel laden roundabouts are still presenting a major hazard. It's easy to spot on the open road, but when the roundabout is broken, or their is low lying sun reflecting of the rain soaked roads it's nigh on impossible. I crawl around some and still feel the front end slipping. Quite worrying when you have an Artic on the outside of you
Just keep up you lifesaver checks everyone. 95% of bikers don't make them and my livesaver checks have already saved my life twice from idiot cars undertaking when I'm turning right on a roundabout.
Managed to get tw4tted on the head by a bird the other day too. Was only doing about 25mph and managed to duck so it glanced of the top of my helmet. Still made a massive thud mind!
My rev matching work is now getting a lot better. Can blat down the box when braking very quickly at high revs with no slipper clutch in sight. Essential to smooth swift riding and I pop flames:
Stay safe

Check out the handlebar conversion, it suits me down to the ground.I needed to get rid of the gaudy red graphics which I have done and replaced the with carbon look, from a distance it looks all black now which is good.I forgot how much I luv Busa's.I was prepared to sell the Beemer and quit bikes altogether,I'm glad I didn't.This thing has 2300 miles on it when the deal was done so its like new,Ive since removed the gay red graphics,put a Hid headlight on it,heated grips and all is good

By all means, do it if you want, but you will risk dazzling other motorists unnecessarily and being left without lights due to a faulty component.
I'd opt for better lamps in your standard unit, or if needs be, uprate the whole headlamp assembly.
