        Besides, naked Katanas are freaking hideous.

            • I've turbocharged several Mustangs (mostly because up until this year, they were fairly anemic from the factory in comparison to their pony car brethren), but I've no concept regarding the TC of a bike. I thought about it briefly when I got the '14, but that just seems ridiculous. Good job and happy riding!

                Fixed.
                90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

                    • NO offense but you either need to re-do that horrible intake charge plumbing with some nicer mandrel bent stuff and nicer welds, or never ever let anyone else see it!!!
                      besides that, nice work so far!!!
                      Um I dont know any wise quotes so go read katansoldiers quote in his signature!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                            A guy I work with has a boosted zx 14 with some other engine work. Even with ultra soft tires he can't get it to stay hooked on the street if he gets into it all the way. He said that he ran about 6 seconds on a quarter. I don't know if I believe him, but it was fast as all get out.

                                nope, trust me i wont take offense to something i already know i want to change... theres a handful of things i would like to change around a little, but after the money and time that would go into doing them? yea stuff can wait..... im kinda burned out with the "go one step forward, 20 back" kinda thing.... but its great to have another bike that i can jump on and ride and not be bummed out lol.....
