hows it like to own a turbo'd literbike??
ZrxDean or other literbike turbo owners, what's it like to own?
a. streetability
b. hows it ride with stock wheel base/ how much boost or hp can you make before it becomes to much for the stock wheel base for street riding.
c. whats it like in the twisties with on off transitions/boost
d. ever do any track days
I've often thought of turboing my 07 gixxer1, but i wondered if i would ruin the characteristics of owning a literbike. I enjoy riding my 1k and would like to have some serious power for the occational dragstrip, trackday, everyday streetbike usage. Thoughts or comments appreciated.

Mine's a racebike, never ridden on the street, but with a mild kit I think it would be just as you expect, wheelie prone but fun, a bit of a handful in turns. -Dean
