Guys, I wanted to try and post a few pictures for you to see on this Turbo & Nitrous set up on this 2001 Valk I happened across at the Pensacola BMW Cycle store.  Didn't ride but did listen to the motor roar! I was told 130 Hp! I know some of you guys would really appreciate! Need help though posting the pic! I did send to Jeff / ChristJ in Crestview.

I looked on the Pensacola BMW website (used bikes) and it's not on there.

It was for sale when I was there 2 weeks ago. Pretty clean bike w/ a small dent in the upper part of gas tank, not from a drop I'd say. It only had I believe 14 k miles +/-. I'm on vacation in VA and won't get back home till Sunday 5th. I can go by there on Monday to check and see if it is still there. I'll get the price if you haven't called them by now. Thanks

Wow, it's not a turbo, that's a blower sitting on top. Guess I won't try it out or buy it, there's two things someone over 50(or 70) doesn't need: A souped up motorcycle and a mistress. They'll both get you killed.

Seems like either one would be a fun way to die John. If there is such a thing.

Au contrare....shame can only be avoided by doing neither. You'll be shamed when you crash a hot bike, and when you crash with a hot mama.

I think that applies to most of us SLIGHTLY younger as well.

I like Bill's approach, it's what I used to tell my girls when they were growing up; look with your eyes, not your hands. I get a chuckle out of Rita's reaction sometimes. When she sees something that's a bit obtuse, all she says is "oh my." That means it's either an eyeball burner or an eyecatcher.
