Ok First let me say I made a comment in a thread about riding alot of curves and deciding not to go turbo b/c of it. There was some guys talking about if you think you will loose your suspension b/c you go turbo well your wrong. Well anyway thats not my concern and never has been. My concern is being in a curve at 6K+ rpm going 100+ that I would loose traction b/c of the boost. Alot of the guys I ride with say it cant be done without wiping out. They are the 2 or 3 guys that are always in front of me running at least 20mph faster in the hair pin curves. They are all excellent riders. Ive never rode with them on my 929 which ive owned since 2000. I can curve better on it seeing that I've only had the busa since feb but Ive came along way on it. I think I have a idea to what you guys are ganna say but please bare with me. So my question is do you turbo owners think that riding a turbo bike while racing through the twisties can be done safely. Like I said before Im very experienced rider myself so please leave that out of the equation. Im talking about the bikes performance being that your pushing alot more hp while riding the edge of the tire. The curves we ride in TN are comparable to Deals gap but not as many. So Im looking for a turbo that doesnt build boost until higher Rpms. Im famliar with turbo cars as Ive had a few and I know that ballbearing is not the way to go for this application. Well sorry for so much tping and story telling. Just want everyone to be clear on what the situation and what Im asking.
