I See Dennis Kirk offer the Hypercharger for the V-Rod,
How is that, does it just mount unt the air breather cover, or what?

Does anyone know?

I think it mounts just below your mullet


seriously, I didn't see a V-Rod reference.


edit: ooop, ok, I see it... on the list of what it fits... it has to be a typo.

I sure would like to see one.

Here is another site with more info. They list several HD EFI engines, but NOT the V-rod. It's designed for side mounted air filters.

I was being sarcastic.Although I wonder how they would do it.that thing would restrict so much air on our v-rods.

I agree. Someone should call them and see if they are serious.

ITS EASY JUST CUT A HOLE IN YOUR AIR BOX AND IT SHOULD FIT JUST FINE!!!! :rofl2:

 

[riverrattcom]

Maybe it mounts on the Headlight!
LOL!

I called Kuryakyn (pronounced "Furry Bacon") and they said for best performance on the V-Rod, duct tape it to your leg, but be sure the butterflies are open and your mouth is closed when riding.

I saw one on a Buell Firebolt. There was a hole in the air box cover.

That buell actually looks kind of cool. The v-rod would probably need two or three hyperchargers for those 9000rpm runs.

 

[Vinny]

No Hypercharger here

Just TURBOCHARGER

This thing is what street rodders put on for show and no go.A filter installed would kill the added performance.Driven forced induction works,I don't think this thing will.

I had one of those overpriced hunk of shiznits on my old Sporty. While they offer good performance with the right jetting in the carb, run well in the rain as well as dry weather (the rain/Hypercharger myth is just not true...had mine for 5 yrs), and looks pretty sweet on a traditional twin, the quality absolutely SUCKS! They are made as if they are disposable and "Furry Bacon" :rofl2: needs to address that issue. I spent nearly as much in replacement parts as I did for the Hypercharger. The quality is so bad on those things that I will no longer bother to even look at a "Furry Bacon" catalog. :hitfan:

I still don't see how or why someone would want one on a VRSC when you have the topless option. Not only that, if you ever rode a Sporty or traditional twin with the Hypercharger on it, you probably apreciate the clean and comfy ergonomics of the rod that much more! That Hyper-Bug-catcher used to dig into the right leg like a giant chigger!! :rofl2:

PS

I like what they did to the Buell with it. Looks pretty dang sweet!
