That horrible army / ratbike machine appeared on ebay a couple of months back, with the seller claiming 140hp.

Upon fitting a turbo, I would have thought engine life would be measured in minutes considering how weak both the clutch and 2nd gear dogs are on these engines....

IMO a mild shot of Nitrous would seem like a slightly more realistic option

I know this is the boring logical option and people like to be trailblazers and own unique stuff, but why not just buy a Fazer 1000 or R1 instead if you want mental straight line power?
