You'll just be another drone with a busa, at least you have something somewhat original with a TL.

Touring or drag racing or salt-flat speed runs I'd take the 'busa, everything else I'd take the TL, but different folks will prefer different things

Later model, lower mileage, I'd trade. You can't get the value of the mods on the TL back so on the open market the Busa is probably worth a fair bit more than the TL too.

I've owned both bikes and still have my busa. I really miss the tiller but if it came down to it (and it did) I'd sell the tiller.

I have both...well, the TL's the less-lardy S model  ...as has been said, they both do what it says on the tin...i'll be keeping them both, but in the real world, the TL would be the first to go as the 'Busa is just sublime as a standard road bike...whack a cheap stage 1 turbo on one with no engine mods and you can play with upto 300 brake too
