Classic Kawaski Power!
When I delivered my turbo Bandit yesterday, I stumbled upon this:




A beautiful bike, which probably needs no introduction around here!

they were fast.............the factory 750 turbo was faster
the Z had oiling problems
& handled like crap
still they had the edge over other 1000s

i had a 85 750 turbo for about 6 years or more. for all the crap the mags gave it for mountain riding i thought it was a good bike for a 85. i liked the short rpm gap between the gears got 45mpg typical for me. and would lift the front up sometimes in first. the yosh slip ons let the wistle more then the stock 84 my twin had. i still like that bike for a old hot rod.

The Z1RTC was a project bike that I'm proud to say was fathered by a very close friend of mine Bill Hahn Sr. The smartest man I have ever had the pleasure to call my friend and mentor.
