The turbo's never made the hit that the factories hoped for -- finicky, prone to turbo problems, and added more weight than power benefit where most riders needed it (under 80 mph). Still, a very cool find, and the SECA's were a good bike to ride compared to other UJM's of their generation (narrow between the knees, comfy, some were shafties). Oh, and it really benefits from modern tires...

I've got an old Cycle World mag. around here somewhere with the "New For 82" article in it.
If In remember correctly, the writer/test rider, put it in the woods. Seems when he down shifted for a corner, the RPMs picked up, engaged the Turbo boost and rocketed him through the forest just beyond the apex.
I must see if I can dig that up. Funny stuff."Speed Junkie Since 1975"
