Nice CX500 Turbo Resto.... from the Land of Disco!

 Mike Skelton sends in another beauty.
He Writes:

Steve,
This is a 1982 CX500 Turbo my restoration buddy Ed @ Cycle Treasures just finished. It was running when he got it, but just barely. A full service, some fuel injection foibles repaired and fresh paint were in order to arrive at the finish you see here.

The unit has less than 12000 miles on it.

Brother Ed is also quite skilled at polishing and painting with a 12oz spray can. He has taught me a few tricks using a rattle can and a secret process to make $6.00 worth of paint really look good!

A few Ebay bits here and there, and viola! Fini!

Kawasaki GPZ750 Turbo.

God I lusted after this bike when it came out. The sudden rush when that turbo gets spun up must be amazing.
