Yep, they had a 650 as well, that was set up like a Moto-Guzi engine. My brother owned 2 of those man were they a wierd bike to ride. He also had the Yamaha turbo wich was a blast on the highway! But none of those matched the Kawi...first bike in the 10's.

nice way to get off topic guys. denmah, you will have your video of the bike. the video of me passing you at 342 mph and smacking you in the back of the head. also, you had better watch out, or that snail will crawl up your @$$

Im interested in the nitrous . I honestly thought first thing when I bought this bike that it would rock to have a completely hidden nitrous system. For those special occasions I had to pull up on someone on a I4 bike that wanted to go.

I'm calling bs big time. The turbo is too big, the carbs are not the right type to run boost, and with no mention of a full fuel pump he can't be running a nitrous unless its wet. Besides even if this bike exsists it would be a tuning nightmare. From what I read it sounds like the bike runs perfect and no bugs. Bull crap!! I'll bet its someone already on the forum having fun with us.

Sure you can slap a turbo on anything but getting it to work right is a totally different story I had a 99 Civic Si with a custom turbo setup on it and that was fuel injected. i just dont see it running very well on a hawk we will all be on our bikes enjoying them this summer and this guy will be sitting in the garage staring at his bike wondering why he cant get to work. i still say bs till i see and hear the thing run it just dosent seem functional on the hawk do ya just have the turbo on the front cylinder?
