    Oooo...like that idea ..a lot..

    Why is all the trick kit in the US ..

    I notice there ain't a price tag for the kit though..I suppose, if you have to ask you can't afford it ;)

    Must say Im quite tempted by that turbo kit for later upgrades.. Would want a new main bike first though and then turbo the project bike and keep it for special occasions :)

    group buy!!!!

    Wonder what it's 0-60 time is. I was reading, just the other day, a road test* of an '06 GSX-R1000 that recorded a time of 2.35 seconds. That'll take some beating. Is there a lower limit (2 seconds?) for a standard geometry road bike below which launch, traction and anti wheelie controls kick in to prevent a bike just looping the loop.:eek:

    WOW! That is one beautiful machine. Was pleasantly surprised :) to see, according to that list, that the LARD BUCKET 'VFR 1200' I've just re-placed the 'blade with came a close second at 2.70 :confused:

    $3500 (£2100) isn't that much considering the items in the box...a brand new turbo will cost around £800, then that cnc billet airbox...

    Shame it doesn't include a spare gearbox for when the existing one goes bang with those extra ponies..
