Does anyone make a turbo for the ST?
My wife said I could have one, and she sounded serious!!:hotpepper

Mine came stock with a supercharger... didn't yours???
(at least that's what I tell 'em when they ask why it sounds like that)

What the heck do you want a turbo for - isn't the thing fast enough as is?
Go for something really important, like a bazooka, flamethrower, or flux capacitor.

When u find the turbo or even a blower for the ST, let me know...I want in.
ST/SV....nice avatar....I got the exact same two bikes, except my SV has a GSXR front end on it. Good taste!

In 84 I met another V65 Sabre owner in a gas station. Noticed the Turbo and said pretty much the same thing. His answer Because too much is never enough.:03biker:

Sounds like the beginning of the first group buy that I can participate in!

Good Lord, where on Maui is there room to ride a turbocharged bike? :)
If you're really serious, pop over to ST.N and go find Uncle Bob. He has a blown ZRX1100 and seems to know a lot of the ins and outs of turbocharging.

the ST isnt as fast as I thought. In a second gear race, 2 different Hardleys pulled away from me. Bear in mind though, they had the jump, I was two up with the Mrs. and they were solo. At the upper end of third gear I was clearly pulling away, but still... I thought any harley wouldnt stand a chance. Them hogs have some torque. A turbo seems in order here, the squids are next.

To hell with the Turbo.... there's a huge market for that kind of wife! (Apparently they only made two, I got the other one)

Very true. In my case, I've found it's easier to get forgiveness than permission.

Seems to me our very own Turbo City Tom would be the guy to ask, isn't that the business he's in? Farkles, where does it end?

Boy, oh Boy, is that ever true!!! If I had waited for permission, I would still be driving my Honda CAR and not a new '06 St!!!!

You should have bought a black ST. Then you don't need no steenkin' turbo
