Pretty funny! OK, I my driveway has 2970ccs of Suzuki cruisers! Two 805s and a 1360 (two Intruder 800s and an Intruder 1400). If I add in the Harley, that would be 4330 CCs!

As a M50 rider, I read with particular interest multiple threads on how to maximize the power that is available in the 805cc mill. Many experiments were conducted on the differing intake, exhaust, and fuel management configurations. Of course, there were humorous posts on which color on the M50 is the fastest. Like anyone who owns a motorized vehicle, I too pondered how I can enhance the performance of my current steed. Then I recalled an old saying that there is no replacement for displacement. Fine then. After much thought, I added 599cc's on top of the 805cc's that I have and lo and behold...



















...I got a Honda CBR!!!!!



Since it's a faster bike than my M50, I don't have to worry about making my M50 go faster any more.

Now if you went from 800cc to a 125ci engine, now that would be something!

I must admit that I sometimes wonder why one would buy a bike and then spend tons of money making it go faster when it would probably be cheaper to buy a bigger bike in the first place! But I guess a lot of guys really enjoy the customizing apspect of biking where as I am pretty useless at anything more technical than an oil change.

My Motto: Buy it, Ride it, when it isn't fun to ride anymore get rid of it. Buy something fun to ride! So far my S83 is still fun to ride. I like the S83/S50, got the S83 over the S50 because of the 2" higher seat, I have a 37" inseam. Compensating? My next bike? probably a C90. Why the C90 over the C50? I hate "spoker" wheels. Compensating? Like the V-Strom's but it torks me that the insurance company's insure them the same as an SV.

Those rims are availible on Oneida Suzuki- They won't make the bike any faster though. If you crave more speed-just take off that front fender, it makes a huge diff. on the highway. I am goin to add 1000cc-, getting the new 109R

I have 805 cc's in the 2 wheeler and 1000 cc's in the 4 wheeler.

I have no need to compensate. I'm throroughly adequate.

No need to compensate here!!

Not go go off track, but the "insurance companies" all have different rating methodologies, so some may insure the like an SV, which is like other cruisers, some may insure them like an SV which is a surcharged sport bike, and some may surcharge an SV but not the V-strom. All you have to do is shop.

Hmm, lets talk Big CCs huh? Anyone see that Four Cylinder bike made by OCC? That show, American Chopper? They use Harley S&S motors (Screamin' Eagle motors?), and put TWO of them together. The bike was made for Intel, for their QUAD CPU promotion, so they made a Quad V-Twin bike, VERY nice!!!

It is the most powerful, and technological bike they have ever made. No instruments, just a LCD screen with the all the instruments on it. No mirrors either, has cameras! IT is COOL AS HECK!

192CuI, and 250 HP!!


The Suzuki C90 (90CuI) is a 1500 right? So, those motors have to be around the 1550 mark, at 3100 CCs (192 CuI /2 = 96CuI each).
