Re: [ST] Turbo



Each of the Japanese Big 4 made a factory turbo bike.Yamaha Turbo Seca 650 
in 85/86,Suzuki XN-85,Honda CX 500 and 650 turbos,and the fastest of all was 
the Kawasaki GPZ-750. I had a Trubo Seca and it was a well engineered 
system.We took it to Bonneville a couple of years ago and my son set a 
couple of records.Since then I took a turbo set-up from a Seca and grafted 
it onto a Yamaha FJ-600 and will head back to B'ville again with it as it 
has a 6 speed/chain drive so gearing changes are easy.Lotsa fun.Jim.
