Description
Extremely Rare 1986 Yamaha XJ650 Turbo. Finished in Metallic Silver with 80's Styling. 81, 658 km - 50, 738 Miles. 2 Original Keys, Toolkit, and Original Owners/ Service Manual. The Yamaha XJ650 Turbo was one of the Quintessential Examples of the 1980s Japanese Movement to bring Turbochargers to Motorcycles. After Honda brought out the CX Turbo, Yamaha Followed Suit and Brought Out a Turbocharged Variant of their 650 Seca, and it took 80s Styling to a whole New Level. Interestingly, The Engine Only Put Exhaust through one of the Dual Pipes, the Other Pipe was Designed Only to Exhaust Overboost coming from the Turbocharger. The Turbo Ended up being more Successful on Paper than in Reality, and it did not last very long in the Market. On the Flip Side, it has become an Interesting piece of Yamaha History that makes for a Great Collectable. £4495 Viewings by Appointment Only. Please Call for More Details.
