Buddy of mine has had a sneaky 25 shot fogger system for two years and hasn't had any issues. He has everything hidden and you would even know he had it until he purges the system......

If you can do all the work yourself, and have a clear understanding of how it works, go for it.

If that doesn't sound like you, then I would pass on the idea as nitrous adds a whole new dimension to the game.

ALL horror stories about nitrous are due to incorrect tuning! As long as you keep this rule in mind you will be fine: Nitrous LOVES compression, but hates timing.

if I wanted a crotch rocket I would have one. Plenty of harleys have turbos,chargers or NOS with no problem as long as there done right.

he asked if it was good or bad, so you want it that makes it good for the bike I guess. I can bet it sure isn't going to be good on the crank.
