Usually the same amount of time it takes to exaust a tank of gas. ~160 miles. After fillup I am good to go for another ~160 miles though. I can do that all day...

It depends on the road and depends on the pace but I'll say 100-120 miles or so on average and it's about time to get fuel anyways...and a shot of caffeine too.

I would stop when I got to either the Dairy Queen or H-E-B in Marble Falls. Depending on whether I needed lunch or gas.

On the Ninja I would have to stop pretty often because my hands would feel like tuning forks.

On the Honda....I wouldn't need to stop until I had no gas.

Yea that's something that Kawasaki hasn't changed btw! I rode the Baby Ninja home 90 miles and my hands vibrated for hours afterward!

Yeah all they did was make it prettier.

But people will still buy them, so there really wasn't a need for them to do anything else. BTW, how is your girl liking the new bike?

[QUOTE=G-Rex;245805]I can easily run the 175-200 mile fuel range on the Busa with no trouble. [QUOTE]

The busa is a great touring bike. I can go until the tank is empty(about 200miles) with only a sore ass, but that can be fixed with a gel seat.

You have a bitch with you ever? My dad is thinking of getting a bus to tour with mi madre. Thoughts? I've asked Trace before and he didn't answer...fugger.
