Default Turbocharged bikes?? take a peek. CBR guys

This is off topic a bit, but still in the realm. I have some questions and i trust you nuggas....
IM buying a bike soon
its either
1998 cbr f3 mileage 7000miles
1999 cbr f4 2000 miles
Price difference is 1400 or so.
is there a big difference between an F3 and a F4??? Also, is there any turbo kits for bikes?? Im dead serious with this.. I have a clip of a turbocharged f3 and its SICK...

actually most of the turbo kits for bikes are for hayabusa's. check out the dyno sheets on nlrsystems.com. 400+whp on a 500lb bike. I have seen one go 234mph in less than 1 mile from a stop.

approaching 1 hp per pound. good thing the turbo is laggy or the front wheel would come up any time you accelerated.

i cant imagine turbo busas. the front wheel comes up off the ground so easily on a stock bike.

dude you dont even have a bike yet do you? you dont need a turbocharger on it. why do people put it? just to do it. its like racing out old bucket cars. same deal. i have friends who have been riding for over a year now and some of them still havent gone to redline on their bikes. its insanely fast already bro. and im talking about 600cc bikes mind you.

i am assuming you're responding to the creator of the thread, and not me, i've been riding since i was 17 and i am the motorcycle forum mod

i've been to redline on my slow *** bike in 3rd gear (probly 90-100mph), but never redline in any higher gear.

How often do you see a stock busa's do wheelies?

They like to burn out instead of wheelie because of the wheelbase.

i've been on rides with busa owners who dont try to wheelie and end up doing so just trying to keep up with the open class bikes, regardless of the riders intentions.

it gets really fun when they accidentally wheelie over the paint dividing the road and the back end gets squirrelly on them.

it takes a lot more to wheelie those then a super sport.

Plus most turbo'd bikes will have a nice long swingarm

with bikes being high compression, high rpm why is it so risky for us to go high compression + boost?

bikes have smaller displacement, which means smaller valves which means less mass which means valve springs arent loaded as heavily as in a car engine which means higher revving with less consequences.

things melt in a motorcycle engine just like in a car when you boost them and do top speed runs and whatnot. you do have a bigger tuning window thanks to the better power to weight ratio.

high compression with boost in a car is a completely different scenario from a high revving motorcycle engine, in my opinion.

I guess you never been in a fast car. a 600 bike is nothing. I beat them by accident in my car. A busa is a real mans bike. Why turbocharge it?? so you can get to 220mph in a 1/2 mile from 60mph. I would never use the word insanely fast and 600 in the same sentence. if its your first bike and you never had a fast car then yes it may feel insanely fast but its not. bikes that are insanely fast to me are hayabusas and gsxr 1000's with some work done. and yes, i have owned a hayabusa that did 198mph and 2 gsxr 750's that did 178mph. here is a pic of one of my gps runs.

im responding to the guy who doesnt even own a bike and wants to turbocharge. it was obvious to me that he doesnt know what hes talking about.

the busa has
dymag magnesium wheels
Full akro exhaust
yosh rearsets
yosh filter
yosh cams
power commander
520 chain conversion
carbon fiber rear hugger
ram air scoops
bar ends
mirror plates
not in that picture brembo rotors and titanium rear rotor
did 198 mph in less than 9/10 of a mile.

here is a pic of my 750 too. I miss them both. Sold them both to build my Civic Street Car.
