Just out of technical interest I thought you guys might like to see some of our other projects, its not TB1600 but I know you love this stuff
Yamaha MT-09 Supercharger . Power predictions are 180+bhp.

What concerns me about those figures is the power and torque at low revs is less than previous, surely the bike must feel sluggish until the supercharger comes in?

Your wrong the supercharger comes in from idle, it always makes more power than stock at any revs. It will do on the TB1600 as well. It never feels sluggish, sharper than stock all round.

Here is a Harley Twin cam comparision of before and after supercharger (very similar to what I expect with the TB1600). You can see its never lacking from idle to redline :) 15% increase in torque as soon as your on the throttle.

Yes I see now, I was getting the curves mixed up, could not zoom in on the Facebook image. That looks more impressive.

Bloody hell. I wish I had a big bucket of cash. As it happens I have an MT09 as well as the Thunderbird.
