That is just sick! I want a black one. Maybe some trained eyes can pick out the origins of the components.

it was totally custom the frame was a 750 frame that had the rear end chopped and welded on the new one. the turbo's were actually a fair size .to me the gas tank looked like it was only half functional the air filters ran under it. as you can see the headers and pipes were all custom. there wasn't any info on it and I waited to see if the owner would show but..after half an hour of just standing and drooling I moved on.

to me the turbos looked like they could have been off of a old turbo sprint or some smaller turbo car. they both were turned in a direction that I couldn't read the labels.

The exhaust looks awesome on that bike. I'd be curious to know what kind of internals he's running in that engine, and how much boost he's making...Looks like a fun ride!

Hey, I saw that bike yesterday!  Nice piece of work.

I ran across this in the parking lot too - I thought it was cool.

I also saw this... It's a wired but cool home made steam punk contraption, powered by some sort of Evinrude parallel twin.  It's registered as an '81 GS650!   ;D

Heh.  It was a good show - sorry mate!  If I'd thought about it I would have posted it in the regional board.

At any rate, I put an offer on a very clean '94 Duc 900SS - fingers crossed and hoping the owner calls!
