I did some heavy lifting (literally) the last couple weeks. The turbo engine is just different enough from the NA engine that I swapped them out so I could be sure everything fit 100%. This allowed me to find the correct offset front sprocket (the turbo has a 6mm longer output shaft) plus finalize my exhaust system.

While I had the engine out I went ahead an dressed up where I removed the lower front cross-member.



Once the turbo lump was in place, I moved on to the exhaust. (Don't mind the weld quality, as I'm using flux-core wire.) I thought it turned out nice and followed the lines of the frame and body work well.

Hello Doug, Where did you get this thin red tail light for the GPZ750? Best regards Peter Bendix Søndergaard
