True ...that is why im hesitant but the sweet winding sound of a loud *** turbo could fix that . Not to mention the look one the speeders faces.

lol..... You know the thought of having something that has 100+ hp and weigh under 500 lbs is very very appealing to me . Just add some new cams ,port the heads with titanium valve springs and seats along with a little tuning on the dyno and i know she will push some crazy *** power. Anyone got a t25

The question is why though? I mean if you wanted a fast bike you shouldn't have bought a harley

I suppose you could say the same about my sunfire but thats because of price. I'm sure your harley was far more expensive than the gsxr I used to own which would still walk on your "turbo harley"

Although it would be cool, I'd just rather turbo a crotch rocket and kill myself testing it out

i rode on a Honda CBR 600F4i once, as a passenger. That sucker does 0-60 in 2.8 sec and thats the smaller of the two engine choices! Was still able to get the front wheel off the road with two passengers.

we went around a corner. rrrrrrr, second gear, rrrrrrr look down 120km/h in like 4 seconds WOW!. crazy fast.

has like 140hp stock w/ a 15k redline. 15,000rpm, not a typo.
