    If it doesn't have an engine, it's not a sport, it's only a game.

        oh beech, beech, beeeech. I dunno 'bout you but in stock form the xs1100 has about all the power it (and me) can hold. You are a brave soul wanting more...Just a little ribbing...as someone in here said.."not overpowered..just under controlled"
        BTW..I am currently lookin up an old buddy of mine..he has been messin around with an old suzuki gs1100 for a long time..(turbo..supercharger..nitrous..big slicks and such). Maybe he would have a clue on where to locate stuff. I will be sure to post if I find anything of interest.

          turbo????

          Beach,, i have to agree with the other reply,, i am 5 11,, wt is 215 and my 1100 will haul me most definitly faster then i care to go,,not that i dont run it hard,,out in the country,,i would love to see one with a turbo,, but i really dont think its needed unless you want to build a racer or something like that.
          just my 2 cents worth.

              Sometimes I twist the throttle all the way open and don't acutally fill my pants so clearly more power is needed. *big grin*

                Ok, so what's the trick to getting an image to show up in here?

                I clicked on IMG, gave it the URL and it just put in a malformed URL. What gives?
