1978 Kawasaki KZ830 Turbocharged

Description

Published almost everywhere,

It starts as a 1978 KZ650 where the cylinders have been bored and sleeved to 830cc with a MTC big bore kit from the late 70s.

The upper case has been machined as well.

This was a complete case split rebuilt documented with pictures (uploaded on my website)

The turbo kit is from ATP American Turbo Pak (ATP branded intake manifold, urbocharger RayJay F40 and exhaust manifold and pipe), ust like the one that equipped the Kawasaki Z1R-TC back in 1978-79.

Needless to say these vintage big bore kits and ATP turbo kit are extremely rare to find.

Some of the mods include but not limited to:

Dyna-s electronic ignition

Martek ignition coils

Metzler Lasertec tires

Drilled front rotor

Rebuilt starter clutch
