Jul 10, 2011 - greetz to Lorcan and Daniel from Germany to keep the spirit alive!
I reactivated mine today and I'm so keen on getting back on road!
Be aware, German cops! ;)
Mar 25, 2011 - i have a 1984 kawasaki GpZ 750 Turbo i traded a 1995 GSX 600 for it i know alot of people say im dumb for maken the trade but i love this bike its not even in the best shap its got a tear in the seat the left side rear fairing is missing and the mirror is broke but the motor and turbo and everything kicks ass excuse my mouth but hey i love it
Nov 26, 2010 - The 750Turbo was amazing - more power than the 900R, more torque than a 1000RX. In races with a friends VFR750, the turbo always won (in a straight line...)!
Nov 11, 2010 - I loved my 750 Turbo. I bought it new in Decemeber 1984 (San Jose California). I had it until 2007 and put 89,000 miles on it. I kept it as new as possible and every day I rode it people awed over it. Guys with GSXR 600's and Yamaha 600's would always ask me what it was and I would tell them it was older than they were and blow them out of the water to the next light.
Sadly it blew a head gasket and I never fixed it because of other projects. I ended up parting it out.
Oct 6, 2010 - these bikes had to be the most under rated bikes of the day. They are absolute animals and still to this day destroy almost anything on the drag strip.
Jun 28, 2010 - Looks fab! I recently bought a 'project' condition bike, and am steadily plugging away at the various scratched and cracked pieces. Hope to have it to ~90% of showroom in before too long. 'Race Mode' and a variable waste-gate actuator blow-off-valve will follow soon, I'm sure! 15PSI and Race Mode is good for ~135 rear wheel HP. Beyond that, things get real $. :)
Mar 7, 2010 - This was "THE" Turbo to have.The rest were a mish mash of either over-complicated Bikes like Honda's CX500/CX650 Blowers or Yamahas far too overblown example the 650.This Kawasaki was the fastest thing on the road in it's day.I took a test drive on one and even the owner of the Dealership warned me to take it easy!!!.I had only been buying large Capacity Bikes from him for four years!!.Mind you he was right it was a total animal.
May 23, 2009 - Beautiful sounding bike! Back in '84 I was comparing all the hot bikes at this time and the final two were this one and the GPz900. I went with the Ninja since it was considered revolutionary and it was water cooled.

May 5, 2009 - my first road bike was a 84 550 GPZ. That thing was fast, I cant imagine how fast a 750 turbo must be
ZX9Powa Says:
Apr 20, 2009 - The best looking bike from the aircooled era, no doubt!! GPz rules!
brybish Says:
Jan 16, 2009 - oh boy did these bikes go 4-stroke powerband when that boost gauge moved across the fun started. did feel so fast in its day.
