Seller Description
The Kawasaki 750 Turbo was a 2 model year only bike and was the best bike to come out of the factory turbo wars of the 80s. Honda fired the first shot with the CX500 (and then the CX650) and Yamaha followed with the Seca 650 and Suzuki entered the ring with the XN85. To this day the Honda is still a well recieved entry, but the Yammy and Zuke were known to be horrible. The Yamaha had weak performance and handling and the Suzuki suffered from a bad design with the Turbo behind the hot engine and they have well documented reliability issues, although arguably the best looking of all the Turbo bikes and the only with a 16" front wheel.
In typical Kawasaki fashion, they entered the game late but decimated the competition with a better designed and performing machine.
Originally designed to be a 650, it was changed at the last minute to a 750 with the goal of being a giant killer....and it was. If you are old enough to remember the 1/4 mile wars of 1983 you will remember that the "little" 750 bested all the big boys and was 1/4 mile king. Jay "Pee Wee" Gleason made the Kawi Turbo the first bike to break the 10 second barrier. But that's ancient history, so let's talk about this bike.
This particular example is an E2 - 1985 had E1s and E2s, it is the most desirable of all the Kawi Turbos, representing the final and best bike of the Turbo era. The way to identify one is by the push/pull throttle.
It has been tastefully modified, close to a restomod but not too much that its originality is lost. I have the original rear fender, grab rail and chain guard. Stock exhausts are being reproduced and you could make this bike factory original if desired. I also have the stock rear wheel, it is perfect with a near new tire.

Start stops and runs perfectly. This bike has won shows, it is show quality. It turns heads and always draws a crowd. This bike is no joke and it is blindingly fast and when the turbo hits you better be hanging on. It only has 3500 miles on it since the complete rebuild. I have tons of receipts. I haven't even put it on race mode but have surprised a handful on modern crotch rockets on it. Can explain to you what race mode is when we talk.
Own a piece of history, very few of these around and usually they are beaters with tons of miles.
