Hey Eddie...It's a 1300cc engine. I'm not sure...but I think it's between 150 and 160. They limited the engines to around 187 mph...in 1999...they "new" model went 203.

This is a cool video of a "turbo" Busa... http://videos.streetfire.net/video/d4955f1f-6a32-4b76-9e11-ceb8dbc32e39.htm


Hey Ken, I'm trying! Work isn't cooperating. Oh well, that's life http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

the north shop built a '80 KZ1000 into a turbo bike..it made 150mph plus but was a handful to get slowed back down on the factory brakes, my Uncle and I turned a bunch of '79 Daytona Special RD-400's into wicked bikes, big bored them with zero miles and threw the DG Book at them, now that was a way fun bike around town! man good times building and thrashing new bikes like ya stole them.,lol.

Yeah those were good times for me to I'm kinda glad they didn't have those busas I know we would have had to seen what top speed would have been lol
