GPz750 Turbo Engine – 1978 Kawasaki KZ650

In Custom, Japan, Standard by AbhiLeave a Comment

Post Listing Update: This custom KZ was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown.


The seller of this calls it “not your Grandpa’s old KZ650” – because it now has the heart from a GPz750 Turbo!

Everything is said to work and the paint looks to be in great shape. In addition to the turbo, this KZ has an adjustable blow off valve, exhaust that dumps right out of the turbo, digital speedo/tach, boost gauge, adjustable levers, and new-ish Avon tires.

The aftermarket gauges are a bit of a bummer as they look out of place and this is the kind of listing that would really benefit from a running video, but overall I think this is a fun custom. Would you ride it as is, take off some of the turbo badging and make it a sleeper, or go wild with the cosmetics?
