OK, Ok....I "get" the Harley thing alright....owning a Buell and all. But give this Interceptor a look & listen (also got one of these in pieces). Sounds like a smallblock V8!

my favorite Honda motorcycle engine sound is the six cylinder 1050cc dual overhead cam CBX
they sound like a formula one car, (I have a 79 in pieces to build one day)

the reason I fell in love with the Honda CBX was seeing one with a Kerker six into one pipe as a kid
I just loved the way the six pipes twisted around each other,
the turbo kit destroys that great look, so no, no turbo for me,
plus the CBX doesn't handle all that great and has more than enough power for me in stock trim,
(well perhaps a nice 1150cc big bore kit)
