Damn. The 14 and the Busa look like fucking busses on 1 wheel. Pretty wild.

It's a drag bike. What do you expect?

The guys on the 14 and the busa look like they are struggling big time. Thanks for posting, those are awesome!

How do you know it's a drag bike? Do you know the guy personally? He told you it was a drag bike or do you just assume it's a drag bike because it is lowered? The Hyabusa was not built to be a drag bike but many people make them into one because of the large powerful motor. It doesn't mean all Hyabusa's are drag bikes. Would you call a lowered GSXR600 a drag bike?

It's on the drag strip, therefore it is a drag bike.

Every bike pictured is at that moment a drag bike.

The Busa is set up accordingly.

I also originate from that area. There are NO corners.

I took the Buell home last summer, and it was a wasted trip. All there is, is scenery and high way...

The fact that it is on a drag strip and is being drag raced might be a clue that it is a drag bike.

I didn't think that really needed to be explained, but apparently so.
