French turbo 12
My french is not the best so I only figured out some of the specs...
something about 280 or 450 hp, 338 kph top speed (seems a bit slow for turbo),
Thorn Turbo System from a Mitsubishi Lancer, Power Commander, 16mm Beringer master cylinder and 230mm Beringer 4D rotors...all the other is just ikrhgskjnbesbfe to me 
check out those rotors!!
here's the original link, they have a couple other nice 12s and other bikes in the gallery: http://www.mototuning.com/galerie/kawasaki/zx12r-topdriver-turbo/index.php3
For info on the brake system from Beringer, alpha technik here in Germany sells the stuff and it aint cheap! Site's in German, online shop is being redesigned..but for any questions I'll be glad to translate...

Perhaps I should have been more specific...its a non lockup clutch
So it COULD have a billet basket and heavier springs...but that isnt going to hold that kinda power IMO.

So if it is a french drag bike does that mean you get to the line and just concede the race?
You spend a ton of tax money on building it but then be anti-drag racing? A sport for stupid ugly Americans?

Four things I noticed were the Top clamp was from a 00 ZX12. The Header Pipe must be a Straight Manifold style out the right side because the rest of the exhaust is hidden. Air Intake behind the Radiator" Sure would help heat the inlet air! Last, Serious 4 disc Brakes

I read the french stuff and I think it says "280 to 450 hp depending on turbo pressure". Does that make sense? Euro french is a little different from the Canadian French. It also says that the role of this bike was to beat the the 1 km drag world record of 338 km/h. Also has 2 injectors per cylinder. Hope this helped.

Funny thing. I was looking at my bike today and I was wondering what the bike would look like with smaller front rotors. Thought that the large stock ones was hiding to much of the front wheel. Now that I saw these smaller 4 disc, I like the look of the larger rotors. Although these 4 disc rotors probably provide more stopping power with reduced gyroscopic forces.

Adjusting the shifter bracket under the sprocket cover would make it shift easier.
Did the euro bikes not come with the emergency flashers (don't see the button on the left switch housing).
How come no pics of the charge tube ?
Atleast it's intercooled

I don't know how it is in France but here in Germany they have emergency flashers...but I'm not sure if the '00 models had them yet, same as with a light switch, you can see this one has a manuel switch for the low beam. Only the '00 models here had that, after that they went to the low beam comming on with the ignition like in the US.
