Do you recognize this man? I figured he must be telling the truth. Only a 928 racer would show up in a double-axle car hauler to take a dead bike from the 80's home. Who else would be crazed enough to resurrect a Yamaha Seca Turbo?

With a little work we might be able to unmask that 928 racer...

Lizard928

yup, many of us on here know him.

It's the Stig!

Ahhh, besides 928's he's also into obscure factory turbo bikes of the 80's. Very interesting.

He's too tall, and too skinny to be his fat American cousin.

I thought I heard him say something awhile ago about gathering eight SECA turbo chargers and hanging one each off the exhaust ports of his 928.
Sounds like he's started his mission.

I can't believe he is going to ride that Yamaha... I thought he was a Kawi turbo guy through and through...

I told him not to stop by your place Kie...cause he won't get away without buying something ... Looks like I was right.. Nice Seca btw

So when does the shipment of RZ500's come in?

Thaaaaat sounds like someone with stories to tell.

I remember a flight back from London, and I recognized that I was sitting next to Andy Prill of all people.

All I can say about the turbos on that engine is "Why?" The SECA turbo bike I get. The turbos on the engine. Not so much

Hey, I had one of those. Rode it year round here in NC for 2 years. Scare the hell out of you over 6k. Took it out on 29 north one night to see if I could red-line it in 5th gear. Made the mistake of looking down. That was one hell of a ride. That one is just beautifull. The two things I remember are that It gets so hot in the summer you can barely put your feet down on the ground, and that it was heavy as hell. If it starts to fall, all you can do is get the hell out of the way, then do your damdest to pick it back up. One of the most reliable bikes I ever had.

Best of luck,

Mama.

I like the way he "gets" slicks for his racer
