that looks sweet. however it might kill the sweet harley exhaust sound.

True ...that is why im hesitant but the sweet winding sound of a loud ass 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 ;D. 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 ass 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.

Re:whos says you can't turbo a harley
 
why ask why ;)... I love harley's i always wanted one not to mention i know how to work on them. Since i work for the harley dealer i get a mad discount on the parts. I get to come in on my days off and install them and they don't care cause im learning more and more ,not to mention i have all time access to the bike dyno. My bike was alot cheaper then a normal harley and they are so damn simplistic making mine easy to work on. Someday i will buy a old honda ,none of that water cooled bulshit, and make a naked streetfighter ( turbo and nitrous) but i figure it will be cool as hell to turbo my harley. btw the way jesse james ---- is majorly over rated ,i have no prob with him im just sick of hearing about him all the damn time ,damn sheep.

i think it's sick as ----. I'd do it just to race mustangs on a harley and laugh when I make an "american muscle" joke

I agree that wcc has been over exposed, I just like his bikes not because other people do because I do. Everything is built in house not like orange county were they just put a bounch of parts together from mail order and call it thiers. No sheep here just like what I like.
