I can only assume the title of this thread was rhetorical. Turbo-on dude!

Found a company that makes a supercharger that puts the 1050 triple near 200 at the wheel.

Do they sell wheelie bars for the 1050?

I guess I can just hang a tractor weight off the holes where the missing headlights bolt on. :)

Hey, I think you actually have to go on the ride before you can make fun of anyone on it.

And technically the headlight wasn't missing, it just took leave of it's perch.
