all jap bike manufacturers make turbo bikes at one point from 83-85, IIRC. I have a 83 GPZ 750 turbo. With a few tweaks, these bikes will run 9's. ------- fast as ---- in a straight line, but they have pizza cutters for wheels. I don't think I'll ever get rid of mine.

That bike is in pretty sweet shape. Fuel injected in 83?.

Damn, that looks like something that I would see in johnnys front yard all tore apart.

Even though its turbo and probably fun to drive, its to top gun 80's for me.

i had a 83 seca 650 turbo.

it was tore apart in my front yard

they are slow compared to new 600cc bikes, and have tiny tires, shitty brakes, bad suspension. but are still pretty cool
