    I agree with the others, packaging is the main reason a turbo is more common than a supercharger. A turbo can be bolted on where a supercharger would have to be engeneered to fit. plus I could buy a second xb for the cost of a decent supercharger setup. A supercharger does would be better though, less heat and no lag

    The xb's were originally going to be turbocharged. That's the reason for the hole in the frame on the left side. Supplier was going to be Aerocharger and the ECM was able to control boost levels via waste gate. Google Buell XB Diablo project, HD and the supplier couldn't come to a agreement so the project got canceled and the hole welded up in 06 MY.
