Also, on pump gas on the street, you will be surprised at just how hot the blower and manifold get. This itself can cause some weird problems as "hot blower" symptoms include not restarting and possible manifold/blower backfires....Don't forget to include an explosion valve on the inlet manifold - and preferably where it won't torch your leg....

Can factory 650 pistons handle boost?

Note: the AMR500 displaces 500CC per revolution, will this be ok for 674CC? I know the pulleys can be changed
I'm not sure about atomization. The compressor may help atomization to some degree but on the other hand there will be lots of surface area where the fuel can condensate. Draw through systems in general are quite notorious for uneven fuel distribution between the cylinders due to fuel separation and condensing.
Depending on charger placement I would seriously consider using the stock carbs (or something similar) in blow through configuration. Or even blow through EFI but that's a project on it's own.

I am currently finishing a slipper clutch conversion, for this bike, and am only collecting information the next phase, I am considering EFI and may have to go that way, I am having trouble finding space to mount the supercharger and still have room for the intake and injectors.
