They also say:
"Water or water/alcohol/methanol does not make power...superchargers and turbochargers make power. The cooling effect of the water injection only allows you to run higher boost pressures and leaner mixtures without engine damage. The increased density or higher pressure ratio is what makes the power, not the water."
Unless the compression ratio is too high for the fuel, I don't see this helping much. Any advantage to be gained from water vapourization could be realized by using more fuel, which is legal and already on the bike.
