The upper case has been machined as well to fit the new cyl sleeves This was a complete case split rebuilt documented with pictureS The 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only KZ650, Big bored and turbocharged i've seen in the last few years (with period correct parts) MR.turbo.com sells a newer version of this turbo kit for 4,000$ (without installation, tuning and the big bore kit) The only one in this configuration 1/1 Some of the mods include but not limited to: Dyna-s electronic ignition Martek ignition coils Metzler Lasertec tires Forks with stiffer springs Drilled front rotor Rebuilt starter clutch Battery Tender lithium battery "Car like" ignition switch Painted long bucket headlight and bracket New gold chain LED tail, stop and blinkers Custom rear fender Clip ons Minimalistic controls New master cylinder , brake hose and clutch lever assembly New Kawasaki tank emblems New Custom Wiring harness Custom Seat and seat pan (which opens up with the OEM key just like the original one, so you can store your docs or do maintenance to the battery and components) Black enamel painted frame Custom Paint job and pin striping by Rare Air Werx Chrome is original (8/10) Makes a blasting 100whp at 10psi, currently set at a conservative 5psi The original 650cc motor set up had half of this power at the wheel This bike has been featured on the most influential social network and online magazines like: Bike Exif BikeBound Cafe' Racer TV The Bike Shed The Handbuilt Motorcycle Show The Revival of the Machine Uncommon Motors and many others...
