One of kind  1/1It starts as 1978 KZ650 where the cylinders have been bored and sleeved to 830cc with MTC big bore kit from the late 70s.The upper case has been machined as well to fit the new cylinders sleevesThis was complete case split rebuilt documented with picturesThe turbo kit is from ATP American Turbo Pak (ATP branded intake manifold, turbocharger RayJay F40 and exhaust manifold and pipe), just like the one that equipped the Kawasaki Z1R-TC back in 1978-79 where only 500 were made, they currently retail between 23/26,000$Needless to say these vintage big bore kits and ATP turbo kit are extremely rare to find, especially for this particular bike, in fact this is the only KZ650, Big bored and turbocharged i've seen in the last few years (with period correct parts)MR.turbo.com still sells newer version of this turbo kit for 4,000$ (without installation, tuning and big bore kit)The only one in this configuration 1/1
