Re: Turbocharged Motorcycles are a Terrible Idea
... but they were a hoot to ride!
I had a very close friend with an 84 Kawasaki 750 turbo. I got a bit of seat time on that one. It was scary. I had my 85 Eliminator at the time and we carried the Kawasaki Banner proudly.

Re: Turbocharged Motorcycles are a Terrible Idea
Just because an idea gets patented does not necessarily mean the idea is effective or even good.
Ask me how I know.
The main criteria is, "is it novel"and has anybody else done it?
