Drouin supercharger
27 Dec 2011 23:44
I have been doing some research on Drouin Superchargers and wanted to know if they made a supercharger that would be compatible with a J motor. I saw a link to another post on here when i googled KZ1000 supercharger. i have noticed that they make an intake manifold much like the one in this video and that the supercharger is driven from the end of the end of the crank on the left side of the motor. Then again the bike is a CB750... Most of the KZs with this setup seem to be driven from the clutch area.. honestly im looking for pricing mostly. I Want to know if This setup costs as much as a brand new set of RS34s or if its even more expensive than that. Im pretty sure you would need to run higher lift cams too and re-inforce some things in the motor. Would LOVE to build something like this though..

Good luck trying to find one. I have only seen two on ebay in the past 10-12 years or so.

yyyeeeeaaa lol i kinda just checked the price and crapped myself... might as well just buy huge ass cams/RS34s and bore out the head to like 1300 And still have some cash left for gas all summer
If i didnt love my bike so much and had that kind of money, i'd save up another grand and buy a ZX14 or something
This whole super charger post was really out of curiosity. I have had some other projects fly right out of the back of the garage from curiosity. I always thought that the supercharger just looked cool. I didnt even know how many horses you could gain before i did research. If i ever do find a supercharger setup though, ill be posting the whole installation process on here. thanks for all the replies you guys.

You would go crazy trying to get one of them to run on the street!
Unless you had it alcohol injected. And a dragbike outboard starter cart following you.
I have been trying to buy this one for 5 years. I took these pictures 5-6 years ago. This guy never got it running long enough to ride it.
Look at the rust on the header.
He wants $2,000 for the set up, not including the bike. He said he would let it sit till he dies, before giving it away. He is in his late 60's.
