"pesky" sport bikes are still way faster when they run forced induction. and kind of ridiculous to compare to a non-force-fed zx-11. let's also factor in the handling superiority on the lighter sport-bikes.. the article is way biased cuz there's no way that heavy beemer would have a chance of keeping up in the twisties

having said that, my pops has a k1200, maybe i should get it for him

What's the problem???? I would love a bit extra horsepower in my K100, but I don't think that a turbo is the answer - a new bike would be the answer.

If there are any forum members that would like to donate me their bike ...

The Atom is a road legal car, with performance to match most bikes...

I want one - they are only about £30,000!!!
