    Stock motor builds can get you 250rwhp pretty easy from what I've seen. I'd say it'll run you $5k pretty easy all the way to a fully tuned turbo bike. A buddy of mine had one that made 525hp to the wheel that was his everyday bike, and he was absolutely crazy on it. 200mph wheelies every single day. For a 500hp build I would assume you'd at least need some rods and pistons.

    Just to add my 2 cents

    Just have a beer and relax, cool money. I came from not shit, made a living joined the military and learned how to make my own. Dosent make me better or worse until we talk self respect. Dont lose yours. ( the correct response is not to comments to this lets see who's been around a while)

    I think a zx14 will run 8.9s with a pipe, programmer and a gun at the throttle.

    My "bus" is an amazing torque monster, 106tq beotch. Rip that back tire at 2-3k RPM if you want.

    250-300hp on stock bottoms ends are the limit. With another 50hp on mine, pretty sure I would never need any more...Wait what am I saying!

    I don't know how you turned into a martyr for any kid that grew up with money? Beware of any forum member that has an acronym for his forum name... PTM. He got that name for a reason. :2g1c:

    I wish to fuck I had money growing up and my dad made me work on cars. Its not like your dropping them off at shops and picking them up a month later all buttoned up. IDK what the big fuckin deal is. :cheers:

    My parents bought my car for me, and sent me to college. Boo fucking hoo if that offends anyone. I work hard now in a career I've been in for 15yrs, and don't apologize at all for how I got here.

    I vote ditch the geezerglide and turbo a real bike, like a Busa or ZX.

    Im not turboing my bike, withclose to 11:1 compression and air cooled that wouldnt go well. I just dont fit well on any crotch rockets, im 6'1" and havent found anything comfortable for a long time, ive heard look into busa because thet have a larger frame? But insurance would rape me.
