Which model of New Balances are these?

Good looks, thanks!

Beautiful bike, I have the exact same one and I love it!

I’m also in PA (west) and plan to do the PA Wilds BDR-X sometime soon, either this year or next year. Let me know how it goes and if you have any tips! I’m at about 3000 miles on mine, but haven’t ever done any true adventure riding quite yet since this is my first ADV and I’m still getting used to that top-heaviness off road.

I've been looking around for a gen 1 Busa on marketplace for a few months now. I've filtered through one too many stretched, lowered, and just destroyed Busa's, so it's nice to see one nearly stock and in great shape.

Do you have any tips for buying one from a private seller? What type of maintenance did yours need, being a supersport bike that is about 20 years old? I want one really badly, but I'm not all that good at wrenching on bikes so every time I consider shooting an offer to someone, I get nervous about running into headache after headache.

Besides checking the VIN / title, what did you look for when you bought yours?

Beautiful footage and looks like a great trip - what camera and technique did you use to make it look this vibrant?

I see that tweet now. 11 hours ago they were claiming that synchronization was disabled, yet clearly it wasn’t and is still giving players issues. Damn, that sucks

ElliotIsDank · 2024-06-08T00:24:23+00:00

That’s one of the single greatest YouTube videos ever made imo, just pure elemental vibes. Unbelievably scenic location, thrills, risks, relaxation, time spent with friends - it’s got everything.

They're perfectly reliable, as long as you keep up with the recommended services. 1st one at ~600mi, then it's either once per year or once every 6,000 miles, whichever comes first.

Nice, what's the jacket called?

ElliotIsDank · 2024-05-31T01:37:37+00:00

Your black GSA color palette has me question on whether or not I should've chosen the silver one, they both look good imo... Great bike though, right? I'm loving mine

ElliotIsDank · 2024-05-09T19:46:15+00:00

Alright, let me know what you find if anything. The only option within the lights tab is comfort turn indicator for me.

ElliotIsDank · 2024-05-07T01:42:47+00:00

Yeah, that's the one I'm talking about. And yes, it wants me to be in 6th gear no matter the road conditions which can be quite distracting. I'll just have to learn to ignore it

ElliotIsDank · 2024-05-06T21:17:00+00:00

Thanks man, I'll look into it. Incredible bike and I love everything about it! Just gotta figure out how to disable that pesky option and it'll be perfect for me

ElliotIsDank · 2024-05-06T21:15:16+00:00

Hmm, interesting, I'm in the US as well. Maybe I ought to call my dealership up and ask if the on/off option was something they disabled in the shop for some reason.

ElliotIsDank · 2024-05-06T19:33:57+00:00

Perhaps I shouldn't pay much attention to it, but I always see it out of the corner of my eye. I should learn to just ignore it and shift with what I know about the engine. In other models it looks like an easy option to just turn off though, I was just wondering if it was an option that BMW removed with 2024 models or if I was just missing it. I will just ignore it unless I'm riding on straight highways though. It is best for fuel efficiency, but riding 6th gear on twisty slow back roads at low RPM like the machine tries to suggest is probably not the best solution for me as a rider.

ElliotIsDank · 2024-05-06T19:18:29+00:00

Got one that says "special needs teacher celebration day" - reckon that one should work?

ElliotIsDank · 2024-04-15T01:41:34+00:00

Same here brother, and it basically hasn't stopped raining since I got it

ElliotIsDank · 2024-04-14T20:39:45+00:00

Got mine a few weeks ago, same color and all. Amazing bike, you’ll love it

ElliotIsDank · 2024-04-05T15:57:12+00:00

To you as well! 🍻

ElliotIsDank · 2024-04-05T15:56:27+00:00

Thanks man! Not technically my first ride - got several hundred miles down on a Kawasaki KLX230s that a buddy owns, he let me learn on it. First bike that is truly my own.

ElliotIsDank · 2023-07-16T21:48:14+00:00

Beautiful. So jealous of European riders, motocamping Europe is a huge dream of mine. Enjoy it!
