I hope it’s allowed to post this in here, mods please delete if not.
I recently purchased possibly the cheapest, and roughest 750turbo out there for sale as I’ve always wanted to build one into a special, to go with my turbo powered z650.
Here’s the pictures (please no laughing at the back) of what I’ve let myself in for……and progress so far with the new front and back ends test fitted…..

Hopefully it shouldn’t be too bad Tony, I’ve got a couple of spare engines and boxes of bits so with a bit of luck I’ll mainly just need service parts…. I am still missing the alloy fairing wing and a set of turbo clocks off the top of my head, although they’re scarce they do come up

Will the alloy turbo wing go on that twin headlight fairing or have you got an original fairing

The original fairing lowers (side panels, wing and belly pan) should fit as intended with the twin headlight fairing….depending on how many of those parts that I can find, and also depending on what size of turbo I use

Always loved these bikes , i love zooming in on the back ground looking at all the parts and other bikes thinking wow where do we find space in the uk for all our parts and then you look at garages in America and they have Tripple unit barn sized sheds with all fancy tools lights and perfect fitting work benches ! There should be a show us your shed section for all the bike and shed pervs on here. Count me in
