  2. A CBR250RR. While keeping it appear stock.
    That'd be amusing.

    Maybe a little turbo runing mild boost on the 6R. Just for a bit more punch
    in the midrange...

    What about a supercharger instead?

    Dunno about turboing, but I've thought of adding a nitrous injector to
    the bong.

    I've seen plenty of REALLY small turbo'ed singles.....say 0.5 cu.in (about 8
    cc) singles? Model aeroplne engines :) The yanks and poms seem to do more
    of it than us sensible Aussies....but it can be done and seems to produce
    reasonable results for the effort too.

    Not sure that a 2-stroke, 8cc motor running at about 18,000RPM pumping out
    about 3hp is gonna be much use on a motor bike tho.
