Hey Eddie...It's a 1300cc engine. I'm not sure...but I think it's between 150 and 160. They limited the engines to around 187 mph...in 1999...they "new" model went 203.

This is a cool video of a "turbo" Busa... http://videos.streetfire.net/video/d...b8dbc32e39.htm


Hey Ken, I'm trying! Work isn't cooperating. Oh well, that's life

the north shop built a '80 KZ1000 into a turbo bike..it made 150mph plus but was a handful to get slowed back down on the factory brakes, my Uncle and I turned a bunch of '79 Daytona Special RD-400's into wicked bikes, big bored them with zero miles and threw the DG Book at them, now that was a way fun bike around town! man good times building and thrashing new bikes like ya stole them.,lol.

[Eddie M.]

The 80 KZs were they the black Z1Rs?

[budnate]

thats funny you said that Eddie after I posted I started thinking wasnt that the first year of the Z1R's???.. man that was awhile ago, the bike was black, I was only 16 and living life in the fast lane

[Eddie M.]

the first year was 1978 we had two of those I think they were made for two years 78&80, my brother still has his its locked up solid to.if I remember right it has the 1200 bore kit,ported with bigger valves it was a runner to but the trans sure gave trouble
Yeah those were good times for me to I'm kinda glad they didn't have those busas I know we would have had to seen what top speed would have been lol
