Well it's ended, perhaps you can convince the seller to sell it to you for the $450?
or you could find the snail from one of these. :snakeman:

Nice work - I love these bikes.
Saw one go for a song about .....awwwfack .....it was 10 years ago $1000 pristine and showroom condition No-one would touch them then for fear of mucho expenditure and the original owner just wanted rid of it. Your on a good thing though. Its all up from here as it is a unique example of the Japanese dabbling in power wars.
I love the the boost gauge in the tank. Oh and the surge. Handling is definitely of the era though :D
Somewhere around this interwebs thingy there is an original promo put out by Kawasaki on the TURBO. You've probably seen it.
I got a sweater for my birthday. I realy wanted a moaner or a screamer.

I have an article in Practical Sportsbike, a UK mag with a comparo between the 900r and the 750T. pm me if you want a copy.
The standard turbo is a small Hitachi model running 7-10psi boost. Apparently Garrett T25 area compatible replacement.
I have the 900r, so I bought the mag. It came out as the better all round bike but the 750T was by far the best turbo'ed bike of the era.
