Watch my riding videos: Sport Riding on the Darkside or one of the Sport Riding at TWiSTAR vidoes or my videos series Rocket Sport where I tour Colorado, Utah and Lake Tahoe. Car tire is more effort but well capable of doing sport bike STREET cornering speeds (not track racing speeds which is way fast, more than triple posted speed limits).
With this much power, car tires work awesome! Last 3 times longer, stick like crazy glue and I can still woop sport bike butt! I use Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R on the rear.
The supercharger, as he mentioned in the description, is a kit available from TTS Performance (UK); they cost between $5,000 and $6,000 somewhere... the economy keeps fluctuating, so you never know... and are availble with an intercooler for 250+ rwhp.
Id of got it bored to the 3,111cc first b4 supercharging it, would of been a pure MONSTER!

Did anyone else notice the strong similarity between that beast accelerating and the sound of a Supermarine Spitfire on a strafing run?
Damn, what a sound. I really miss my R3 Classic, right now.

The sound sucks on the full throttle runs. Sound pressures were so high that my camera's mic got overloaded. Ouch! Good thing I wore ear protection!

What supercharger are you using? and how much did it cost? Did you make any modifications to the engine?
I'm from Dallas and i am looking for a supercharger for my Rocket. Any help appreciated. Thanks Paul

The supercharger itself is a Rotrex C30-94.

@RiderRocketman Shame. It sounds nice up until the mic cuts.
