Quickly realized I would die if I kept it. Layed it down once. Got in a short police chase once. Took it to 273 km/h once. Young and dumb. But I guess I was smart enough to know it was a bad idea. It was brand new, sold it by end of that one summer. Busa's are heavy, this bike was insanely light for the power it had. Not the greatest starter bike, in hindsight...

More like 140hp and 370lbs dry, still impressive, but no need to exaggerate. I had one of the original 1985 GSXR 750s, and I had the pleasure of riding a kitted RG500, which was really impressive.
