Youve been given alot of valuable feedback, but in the end only YOU can make you happy. Everyone has their own opinion and all that Ive read make sense. You have a great bike, but on the other hand you can trade that great bike for another great bike.
Only you can make the decision bro! Just my .02.

I went from a suz. 500 in 1970 to a 650 hammer 71 to a 850GS in 81 to 1100 midnight special 82 to 920 (vulgar) Hammer,worst bike made.. back to a GS1000g 82,quit riding tell 2004 ,went to a DL1000 13000miles in 10 months,got lots of head shake over 150mph went to what I really wanted the Hayabusa 2005, put 51000 miles on it and then bought a SV1000S.The SV is ok for short rides but if your like me and a short ride is at least 200 miles and you have the chance to pick up a Busa You will never want to ride anything else. I took my first ride on the Busa a 10 day ride which came to 6387 miles,I was in Love,the only thing I changed on the bike was 3/4in. bar riser which I made my self .My old wrist needed the help .I put a power commander,K&N,and yoshi r3 cans.in the flat lands I would get 39 to 42 mpg at 95 to 130 mph,but in the rocky Mts I was getting 45 to 55  ?The only thing I can say bad about a Busa is make sure your clutch is in all the way when shifting from 1st to 2nd Or you will be putting a new trans in it I put 2 in mine but my warrenty covered it both times.

If the bus is so much more value, then swap, sell and get another tricked out R (or something similar like a SP1/SP2 if you really feel like a change) + the extra cash. Depends on the type of riding you do... bus is not my cup of tea, I would sell it right away.

What about trading for a little while? Then come to an agreement that if either of you crashes the bike, the other gets to keep the one they're on, straight up. I don't think he would be real excited to see you sell the Busa, buy another TL, and pocket the extra cash. That's better for you, but if he is a friend I think he would see that as a d**k move.
I don't know, that could just be me?
