Moto Guzzi Superchargers

You can find turbos and superchargers for most of the Japanese bikes these days but I haven’t seen much for Italian bikes. Koehler, a German company, makes this Moto Guzzi supercharger and it looks really nice. Of course, the Guzzi V-twin is mounted transverse in the frame so a blower just fits in so neatly. Sometimes, when an engineering project looks right there’s a good chance it works pretty well, too. This blower look right.
The Kohler site is all in German so use Babelfish to get the details if you’re interested. Looks like the kit goes for 5000 euros.

cool.
bummer for newer models ’cause I don’t think this would fit on the current V11 Sport due to the rear shock & backbone frame.
However, the trick rear suspension on the incredible MGS-01 racebike might make room for something like this supercharger.
The Moto GP is fun to watch (obviously) but it would also be somethin’ to see the Guzzi MGS-01, Buell Firebolt 12, BMW R1100S, & Ducati 900 Supersport go at it in an air-cooled cup series. (before the air-cooled engine is a part of history)….maybe even include the Thruxton to round out all of the twin configurations…thoughts?
