We should start a thread with pictures of supercharged badge rides. Then we can print up cards with a link to leave on the windshields of these super highway racers.

I bought the Mugen Power sticker. Should arrive any day now. Similar to the fuzzy dice I have hanging, should gain at least 20 hp.

I put a Frigidaire chrome plastic name badge from my refrigerator on my BMW K75S motorcycle, in place of the "K75S" nameplate.

Sweet. My racing bike says "Amana" .

I saw another K75S with big colored letting on the exposed airbox. From a distance it said, in 2 inch letters, FART. Close up it said "Forced Air Ram Technology."

I guess BMW bike guys fake badging their motorcycles as household appliances and rude sounds, vs. some BMW car/truck guys fake badging their vehicles "M," might provide some insight into the relative weirdness of bike riders vs. car drivers.

Now if it was an actual M-Sport edition with painted bumpers and wheel archers it would be fair enough. They come with the M badge colours on the wheels & steering wheel as well but this owner probably feels that because he bought the Sports Package he is entitled to have a M badge!
