YUP, that's what most use!
The Aquamist system for bikes is no longer available. Sales weren't brisk enough to warrant putting together these kits. The PWI-2 is what RCC is now using, we have installed these and they work very well. The control box with this system is fully adjustable in regard to onset and percentage of delivery. POWERHOUSE sells the RCC kit, complete with a custom aluminum tank for $750. The last bike we installed it on was a turbo B-King that is now making 300 rear wheel on pump gas with the stock wheelbase. That bike was fun to ride . . . .

aquamist, Howertonengineering (howertonengineering.com) have a kit for motorcycles that looks good for around $500. Aquamist made a race pump that was widely used on motorcycles but discontinued it, so the new pumps are much bigger, the old ones can be found but you'll have to look around. I have the Aquamist 2s, it was sitting in someones garage for a number of years never used. Lucky find. A system that progressively adds water to the system is best, rather then just dumping water at a set Psi. Here's a pic
What aquamist are guys running? The old race pump, the new HFS stuff, with the old shurflo pump or the new aquatec pump? I knew that the old race pump stuff was discontinued, but there are still 1 and 2 series, as well as PWI-1s floating around. I am looking into the PWi-1 stuff right now. I like the new howerton kit/pwi-2/rcc kit, but I don't know if that pump is fast enough to be as accurate as the old race pump or the new fast acting valve stuff. I have a PPS kit from Devil's Own in my car, but would prefer to trust something that can keep flow linear to pulses. And I don't see any failsafes for the rcc kit either. Does RCC use something else?
I found an incomplete PWI-1 I am trying to get some pricing on to get complete, or at least get useable with the right wiring. I have enough tubing and nozzles. As long as I can get a BSP to 1/4 tubing fitting it should work fine for me. Just waiting to hear back from Perrin on the missing parts and their availability.
We not only have the tanks, but we still have the complete RCC/PW1 kits which are progressive, with the pulsing-style pump.
