About my XJ

I bought this '82 in Nov of '10. I picked it up a month later and restored/rebuilt/resurrected it between Christmas and New Years. I was hoping to have it completed then but despite 8 very long days lasting until the wee hours of the mornings, it still took an additional 10 days to complete. The bike came out very nice and with it’s completely rebuilt carbs and turbocharger, runs like the wind! I made a couple of common sense improvements like adding a real boost gage and boost controller. I also added a 12v gas shut off valve and wired it into the fuel pump so when the engine is off, the valve shuts. No more petcock worries!

Great looking Seca Turbo. I've got one that I'm still sorting the carbs on. Doesn't want to idle between 1 - 2K rpm. Something in the carbs is not right -- I'll find the problem soon (I hope). This is a very comfortable sport tourer with a nice kick when you need it. Once you go turbo you never go back!
