ADVrider has an article on them. Looks easier than swapping to a larger engine.
Kits for 50cc and 125cc.

Zac finds the most fun stuff to write about. :D He's China Rider forum member Kawazacky.
I've had silly ideas about blowers and turbos on bikes lately. As soon as I'm done reading 2LZ' new book, I'm going to read Maximum Boost by Corky Bell. I'm not sure which power adder I want to try first. A turbo will have a higher front end cost, whereas a blower will require a belt drive. I really wanna try a smog pump as a blower. :crazy:

How much PSI can you get from a typical smog pump? I would expect that I need 4-6 PSI on a stock monkey bike.

The little bit of reading I've done points to 30-50psi, but that's only at about 50cfm. More than enough for a single cylinder motorcycle.
