Doing a bit for Heavy Duty Magazine http://www.heavyduty.com.au/ on a Chopperworks http://chopperworks.com.au/ creation tomorrow. Haven't ridden a turbo anything before - keen as. Closest is I've sat on Zedman's CX650. When I grow up I wanna be me. | ||

I wanna be you, too. | ||

Well I loved it. Kind-of the anti-Buell. Slammed rear end with limited cornering clearance, but it makes 150hp and 145Nm of torque - and looks simply wicked. And it goes Kutschuuuuuush. | ||

That doesn't seem like a lot of power for a boosted bike. But, sure would be fun! | ||

I wish my Buell went Kutschuuuuuuuush. I love Kutschuuuuuuush. I want more Kutschuuuuuuuuush. I'm almost as mad a Harley for killing the well sorted XB9 Turbo as I am at them for Killing Buell. Can you imagine a 9sx with a 7800 RPM motor and a turbo?!?!?! The sound alone would have been magic. | ||

It's almost double the power of the standard mill though, and as stated on other media commitments: True, a ZX14 or a V-Max have 25% more pony, but the 1620 also produces 145Nm at 8psi of booostages - as you know, 'streetability' is a combination of the two - against RPM. 'tis fun, quick and still very tractable. And it goes Ktschuuuuuush. And like I said before - I never repeat myself. :-) | ||

I rode a Yamaha Raider a few weeks ago. That thing defines grunt. 1.9 liters of grunt. Nice bike if you don't care to lean. I kept scraping stuff. Really annoying. Other than that, fantastic drag style cruiser. Nice clean view over the handlbars. | ||

Yup, that Kutschuuuuuush is really addicting. You should try it with 300+ HP. | ||

And it goes Kutschuuuuuush.  Love it! I once went in a VW Beetle with the turbo + wastegate inside the cabin... it went KUUUUTSCHHHHHH!!!!! I'd like a supercharged single myself  | ||

I used to be a supercharged single. Then I got married.  | ||

I just road tested this too.  Haters gonna hate, but man - I loved it. I'll take this Road King and race yours Jerry :-) | ||
