There are a few nutters who use turbos on the road, they save the NOS for the strip....

Way back in the 80's there was a turbo bike from each of the japanese manufacturers, Yamaha put a turbo and a square fairing on their XJ650, I rode one was kinda fun but gutless low down.

Honda had a CX500 turbo, maybe even CX650 turbo in the free world.
Ugly as sin the lot of 'em.

The Suzuki XN85 was no better ...

Best of that bad bunch was the Kawasaki GPZ 750 Turbo
