My brother had a very low vin# 84. He pre ordered it before they were readily available. I don’t know the actual vin but it must’ve been very low since he waited for months and obtained it as soon as it came out. I remember that the dealer had it delivered to the house. It never even saw the showroom. That was something back then.

That’s awesome! They were special back then and they’re special again, and very good condition these things bring real money. Thanks for watching🏁

Hmmm…. You would think that Kawasaki Japan Corporation HQ would have retained the first 750 turbo ever made.

@@davidlanger3295 because the preproduction bikes don’t have the numbers. They must’ve started production and shipping them out without setting any of the first ones aside. There’s a whole collector market for low vin number bikes it’s wild.

@@MasonGeorgeMotorcycles Do you know for a fact that pre-production motorcycles don’t have serial numbers? I can’t see any advantage to doing that. When testing pre-production bikes it would only make it MORE difficult to identify, track, and fix any pre-production problems

Beautiful bike, but I heard they were death traps; the turbo would kick in when downshifting. Very unpredictable.

TOTALLY FALSE- I had one for several years NEVER had a problem like that or heard of it. The ONLY thing that happened was some head shake that was remedied by a steering dampner...

BS! Obviously Rooster never road 1: The problem IS Turbo kicks in under load !Same with Turbo Porsche ...Risk in the Curves ... have to feather the throttle. Great straight line & freeway power BUT Tube Frame Might give you speed wobble at ~125...and the wobble is waiting for you when slowing down

I doubt it was yours. This bike came from California and despite what some people think these bikes are actually not rare at all.
