ooooooooooo

Oh come on Pete.... you know you have to do it.

Perhaps I would take you up on your offer of a test on your bike then ?

He kept the front down too.

That's justy what I was thinking.
Don't know how stiff the suspension is, but most Falco's would be lifting more than that.
Nice idea for a project though Pete.

Now that's interesting ..... having played with plenty of Jags through work I've often thought that supercharging might be a cool way to go .... but then wondered what it might do to insurance premiums (and the fact that I don't really need a lot of extra power)

..... but very interesting

Oooooooh, nice....

Already looked into this and would love it on the Falco, but I don't think I could afford the insurance. Also I was told I'd need to have a dry clutch fitted which I don't really want.

Have a chat with THESE GUYS, see what they can do for you.
Then there's THESE GUYS AS WELL who helped develope the Rotrex unit that's used in the vid.

HERE is a useful PDF about different types of blowers, how they work and what the differences are.

am in the process of changing jobs so will pop this on th back burner for a while

and tbh, my bird does not need anymore power - well, not since the NO2 was fitted :)

(JOKE!)

I am still playing with different exhaust systems however - i reckon a turbo would be fun on a bike.....

Nah, a supercharger would be much better, you get boost right from tick-over that builds progressively and predictably in a linear way, no lag, no sudden kick in the pants, just smooth ballistic acceleration.
