Kawasaki KZ1300 fuel injected Turbo project
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Kawasaki Z1300 Turbo by Richard Fluttert.
The particular Z1300 Turbo is the handwork of Richard Fluttert from the Netherlands.
Richard had already built 3 versions of carburetor Z1300's some years ago but after a career in Superbike racing he remembered those earlier builds and wanted to build one again.
This one is based on a fuel injected 1989 legendary six anniversary edition never sold in the US.
_ The Turbo uses a Rajay F40 turbine housing and a F Flow compression wheel.
_ A high volume Scavenge Pump is mounted to return the oil from the turbo to the engine.
_ The blow off valve is from a Subaru STI and the external wastegate comes from Mr.Turbo.
_ A high pressure fuel pump and two fuel pressure regulators were added and a lamda probe welded in the exhaust sends fuel/air mixture data to a cockpit display.
_ The ignition is changed.
_ The bike has about 200hp with 8psi turbo pressure.

Four cylinders! Shootout from the original Z-1 900, the 1300 came out six years after the Z-1 900: (anniversary) The KZ 1300, except this one was retrofitted with turbo!

Yep i agree. I had a Z1300.And nope no mistake. We didn't have any KZ in Germany, all models were Z. Nobody want's a German to have another KZ (Koncentration camp) It took no less than 20-21 mpg (US) the first carburator edition.Or 10Liter/100Kilometer. And I had 2 Z 500.I kept one Z500 while having the Z1300.But 'cause of the fuel price and the spare part prices (I needet for the TÜV 3 break disks each 350 €) I sold the Z1300 again. And was happy to enjoy the half as strong Z500 50 HP. But almost half the weight too. I was so pleased with the bike that I got me a 2nd one. Consumption 4,4-7,2 Liter/100Km.These bikes were all build in 1979. A good time ;-)
That dump valve sounds mint,awesome bike.
Very elegant build. So close to original and yet so sofisticated. A sixpack has it's own unique sound. A soundprofile that no 4-cyl. are able to reproduce. Nice job Mr. Fluttert
I used to have a Z-1 900, (back in the day) and it could do wheelies cruising down the highway at 70mph!!..lol..!! I wonder how the neighbors like getting woke up, whenever he starts it up in the wee hours!!..lol..!!
These things were tanks back in the day, and this one revs like a sport bike. Well done!
wow the wetdream of any bike enthusiast
I built a turbo SE 1250 VROD for a customer, 165 at the wheel, couldnt shift fast enough, 125 mph comes up quickly, I like this bike, clean install, sounds great!
Beautiful glorious Kawasaki , legend.
Way to go!King Zed at its best
That sounds wicked!
Nice bike stunning sound. Nice video !!!!
That thing is a beast! And the sound!!
ズバリ、カッコいいですkAwAsAk1300は前、横、後ろ、全てに素晴らしいオーナさんが綺麗に手入れをしているから更に輝いていますエンジン、からマフラー車輪ブレーキ、ライトまですべてに素晴らしいです日本人はあまりバイクは綺麗にしないので貴方様のバイクを見ると新車その物ですね大事にしているんですね、私はバイクに乗ったのは16才の時兄貴のバイク借りて乗った排気量の小さいたぶん400CCだと思います未だにバイクのフアンです
The sound of the turbo pop off and the engine is so sexy! Love this!!
Sounds sick! Nice work
I bet that old school bike is a monster with that turbo 👍👍👍👍
an amazing build well done
Sweet sounding bike. Nice project, and I especially love that you converted it to EFI. Well done.

They got EFI from factory around 1983-1984, only the early ones were carbed.
Sounds awesome. Well done
I love such heavy bikes. Wanted to buy a Z1300 back in the late 80s but then I switched to the VMax of which I own both versions meanwhile. Who knows what had happened if Kawasaki would have gone further with the Z1300... Nice bike and very clean mod. Thumbs up!
Work of art!
We had the 1985 ZG1300 from 1986 - 1988. A brilliant machine and easier to throw around in corners than many would contend. The earlier A2 version still holds the round Australia time record on Highway One at 6 days 23 hours and 11 minutes. Ridden by a policeman.
Great Build! Love it :-)
Awesome bike ... and that was a nice U-turn at 2:45 !
This is awesome!
This is sick!! As people say it sounds like a real Supra! What a toy you have man really good job.
Awesome looking and sounding bike!
Wat een fantastische motor ! Ik zag hem dit jaar op de motorbeurs in Utrecht en was direkt verliefd. Prachtig project Richard ! My compiliments.
I like the little tweet from the dump valve during shifts and when he shuts off. But Im a long term 750turbo owner and I like hearing that myself when riding my own bike too :)
Love the music too
Sounds do fantastic AF
Cool sound bro... old is gold😎
ooh what a great bike and project !
sounds amazing i like it
Good grief, revs up like a two stroke racing bike! Well done! Thanks a lot for making recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health.
Great bike man! bellissima!
sounds like the H1 500 cc 2 stroke,amazing sound,I love it

Sounds great, anything but like a bike!
Wauw, dat heeft bloed zweet en tranen gekost om m zo te krijgen. Ontzettend mooie fiets.
Nice machine!
Wow, echt vet. Het lijkt alsof het vermogen zo soepel inkomt, lijkt me heerlijk om daar eens op te rijden. Moet toegeven dat ik ook ietwat stond te kijken met hoeveel souplesse je nog kan sturen, even keren op de weg en weer verder. Zag er zo eenvoudig uit, menigeen steekt dan toch even de voet uit. En dan ook nog eens met zo'n (excuus voor de termen) gedateerde motor qua handling etc etc. Ik neem mijn hoed voor u af meneer.
Que padre moto lo felicito por traer la moto en impecables condiciones se ve que la tiene bien cuidada saludos
The rolling burnouts would be epic
Looks and sounds lovely hope bottom end will take allthat top end but a credit to the builder
Nice bike man, clean look, I like what you did to it. I have a 82'GPZ1100 with a THE big-bore kit, I can't imagine having anything else added to it. Although I do like the thought of it being a turbo too, or nitrous, but I have enough trouble trying to hang on to as it is.
The sound is just lovely
I HAD A 79 MK11 1000 IN 1986 IT WAS SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET. BLEW AWAY MUSTANGS 5.O LIKE THEY WERE STANDING STILL .
Nice, love it.
lovely sound
YES! Thumbs UP, nice modded "classic " beast of my blood group gang KAWASAKI!
One fine machine and shaft drive too. I want one.
Beautiful bike
What a BEAST.... !!
That bike engine sounds so cool. I would have to vote to quite it down more though at low rpms. Just to not piss off everyone before getting on the road
Very nice Farris. If I had been able to keep my KZ13 running, I would have loved to have turbocharged it. Unfortunately, back in the early 90's, there was not enough information, or internet to find out what the problems were, so since I couldn't afford, to, and couldn't find out why she kept eating $400 alternator stators, and a few other problems, all I could do was charge the battery, and run it till it discharged. Couldn't get to far away from home. Wish I still had her now. Best bike ever made. Don't ever sell yours dude, you WILL regret it if you do. I did. 😭
I love the fact that a 1.3 litre bike with 6 cylinders hasn't got enough testosterone for you so you chuck a turbo on it 😁. Install looks & sounds very well done 👏
Mooi ding 👍
The '80s sounding techno is very appropriate! Diggit.
Sick!
I would love nothing more than to have a bike like this, and when a straight piped HD pulls up next to me at a stop light, I'd show him what a good sounding bike really is.
Nice!
I used to have one these. And. I have to say it used to frighten me. ❤️. Monster

My friend had one of those he bought new in '79 and put a Mr Turbo kit on it, and he sent the engine to a guy who built it for turbo specs with one of only two sets of cams ever that were ground to turbo specs for that engine, EVIL is the way to describe that thing, it's one of the two scariest motorcycles I've ever ridden, being a motorcycle mechanic and even having my own shop at one time I've ridden a lot of wild motorcycles and that thing left an everlasting impression, 1979 brakes, 1979 tires, and 1979 suspension with that kind of power equals a motorcycle that's just dying to kill you or at least put you in the hospital, 100% EVIL.
Cool bike

Richard that is stunning. I have one in my shed for over ten years needs rebuild,however I have a friend in Ireland who has a turboed one in Lawson rep style and its jaw dropping as well. a pajero jeep turbo fitted if I recall. anyway regards from Ireland.
ขอบคุณครับ ดีใจที่ได้ชม..ชอบคาวา..
fucking wicked bike m8, remember when I first saw one outside bike shop in London just stood looking at it for ages
Holy moly! You did a fantastic job here. This is the cleanest, most factory stock looking turbo bike I've ever seen. One suggestion- if it were mine, I would de-chrome the intake pipes, and either powdercoat them black, or go for matte finish aluminum. I think black would be best. And speaking of black, please, please take off the pipe couplers in blue, and replace them with black ones. This would visually integrate the turbo parts sooooo much better- and have a very pleasing understated look. The blue just screams cheap / import tuner/ rice rocket/ autozone junk. It really doesnt fit with the sophisticated, mature demeaner of the 1300. Besides that one small detail, this has got to be the nicest turbo addition I've ever seen on a motorbike. Well done mate, well done.
just beautifull
Très belle machine , resté en grande partie à l origine . Elle a fière allure.
Im more of a full fairing kid,,, but i know wicked when i see it and that there is on F$@K of an amazing machine Lad,,,, Awesome build I cant say enuff good things about this Beast and i only seen her on the interweb!!! Keep Safe man Many Kudos Bigtyme....
nice pop off
Nice. I have to get mine running again. It's been sitting for 3 years. The sound from the big six is pure sex.
nice man
awsome man truely what a time piece ive got 5 bikes and id trade any one for that
nice turbobit
hats off!
fantastic
Don Vesco put two of the carby version of this engine into a rail frame for the Bonneville Salt Flat speed record around 1980. An impressive speed attained.
Would have loved to see some specs...awesome machine..
SOUNDS LIKE AN 2JZ 😍
fantastica!!
Love it 👍👌
Its a KAWASAKI, don't get better than that!!
Do you have more footage of this bike ? I'd love to see (and hear !) more
Sweet!
whistling sound😍😍
that sound =)
I guess the turbo improved midrange power on a rather peaky stock engine. All kidding aside, beautiful work on a beautiful bike. Must still be a heavy thing to handle.
LET OP MET THE POLITIE!! GROETJESS FROM SPANJE
