Yo! New Member Here Turbo 650SR

Hello all! I have a 1978 KZ650 SR with a power plant from a 1984 ZX750T (turbo 750 motor). Turbo 650sr!! This bike is bad. I have had a lot of bikes and this one just bleeds bad assness! Recently finished it after years and it is a pure beast.
I am new to the forum have spent most my time on 750turbo.com. Now I am having issues with the KZ650 side of the bike and could use some knowledge.
Glad to join!

Thanks all. Yep Bart did the restore and motor swap then almost right away sold it to me. I tried to make it a bit more modern. There were quite a lot of things that needed attention. One thing after another really. This one is very close to back in action.
