Got a ride down to London in the other night to hit the casino. It was a tad on the cold side and only bout 85 mi each way. Didn't do so well and the casino but enjoyed the ride when my throttle hand was not frozen...
Internal throttle does not allow me to let go and still have acceleration (only drawback to it).

Thank you sir. I don't have ABS so that shouldn't be an issue.

Although I cannot do it this year, I think I found my mods for next winter... Any other Lo owners spend time over in the forced induction section of this forum? I am reading and reading right now... But I am getting giddy thinking about turbo Lo

I'm trying! I have a whole bunch of other projects out in my garage right now that are about half way through (I build furniture on the side). I have to knock some of those out before I am allowed to start on the exhaust. I should have the exhaust knocked out this weekend.

That second link (Aussie builder) is amazing. I would like to see more specs on both of them. The last two nights have been nothing but reading in the turbo section on hdf. I guess tonight I need to expand to google search!

Well, I got the woods 222 cams put in my bike with the adjustable push rods. Also the Power vision. It idles like chit! I LOVE IT! No riding yet, as there is 3 feet of snow here yet. But I give her a little rev here and there in the garage. Took the wheels off yesterday to have the Commander 2's installed. Is it spring yet?
