This is Kawabusa II, it is the only one like it in the world ! ( I built one other Kawabusa, but it was stock green with all the original bodywork, more of a sleeper, checkout midmomc.com for pic's and magazine articles on it )

For this "special" I started with a super clean 2003 ZRX1200R with only 4,300 miles on it, and fitted the complete engine, wheels, brakes, inverted forks, mono shock and swingarm, wiring harness, and ECU off a 2005 Hayabusa GSX1300R with only 2,500 miles.

On the original Kawabusa, the injectors came very close to the underside of the tank, so I had to cut a section out for an airbox, which lost tank volume. So on this one I built a set of intake manifolds, and turned the injectors down into a more conventional carb position, which also enabled the fitting of a set of bell mouths ( velocity stacks ).

Carbon front fender is Coerse ( only available in Japan ), and rear carbon hugger is from Pyramid ( England ) . The gauges/instruments were from an 02 European GSX1400 ( similar to Bandit, but with the addition of a fuel injection light ), and the headlight unit is from an 04 Suzuki Bandit. Handlebars are Renthal "low bars", and all brake lines are BF Goodrich braided stainless. Oil cooler is from an 05 GSXR1000, as is the complete tail section ( removed from a brand new bike to replace with a racing unit ). Tires are Dunlop Qualifiers ( 200 on the rear ). The header is hand fabricated polished stainless, and the cans are Yoshimura carbon, originally designed for a ZX14 ( ZZR1400 ). Bike is fitted a Power Commander USB.

I built this bike because I love the power of the Hayabusa, and the upright riding position of the ZRX, and it sure is a blast to ride !!!!!!!

I have put roughly 500 miles on it since completion.

I will NOT be building any more of these, so this is your only chance to own it !

Saw that yesterday. Looks pretty cool.

the guy definitely does some nice work.. I;m just not keen on the GSXR tail. to me it does "fit", I think the stock tail would look best.

I wonder what Norm is gonna build next ???

I know just the guy for that bike ... 100,000km on his ZRX12, sold his ZX10 as it was not so comfortable, couldn't find a good used Hayabusa, so he bought a Speed Triple. He kept the Rex of course.

nice idea but the look is so so in my opinion.
