WHY on earth would you want to put NOS on this bike
I ride an SP-1 with 15/41-520, and in the lower gears, it certainly does pick up the front tire when you crank your wrist - nitrous would not be terribly useful there.

However, aerodynamic drag increases exponentially with respect to speed, and a squirt of nitrous on the RC51 would make it accelerate quicker from 120 mph upwards.
