Off Topic - BMW Turbo bikes
I was surfing the net today, and I found some interesting stuff about turbocharging 2 and 4 cylinder BMW bikes. My question is- has anyone here ridden one, or ride with someone with one? It seems that the biggest problem with the BMW bikes is lack of HP. A turbo would seem to be just the trick. I know they have stable, well sorted suspensions, as Ive seen a few of them hauling ass on the back roads of Germany. Just wondering what everyone thinks.
here is the site I was looking at:

Very interresting reading, sure looks like high quality stuff, wonder if they have thought about a system for the 12r. I really liked the "build my own turbo" section under turbo kits.
