Original launch propaganda.
Looks bloody frightening by todays standards! Check out the front brakes.

knee sliders...????

anyone notice the bike barely gets tilted thru corners :roll:

as one who had a GeePeeZee7fiddy turbo there is good reason for that
it doesn't like corners, skinny tyres shit brakes and a bicycle frame see to that

astonishing quick a straight line (10.7 ¼ mile) the 750 turbo
was a bike full of contradictions. Most here today would have a heart attcak
riding one of these ol dungers :lol:

cheers

Bahhh there's nothing wrong with skinny tyres, shitty brakes and old style frames....my old dunger has them all and it's a hoot to ride. I reckon most riders would have a ball riding one of these old dungers and wonder what all the fuss was about :twisted:
