Title: Turbo B12 engine conversion

Ok, it's not in a Bandit as such but the engine is a stock B1200. All the other bits "could" go into a bandit. Hey - they are related.
An excellent build which I stumbled across surfing the www and thought I'd share the link. The builder is a genius IMO.

Those Gen 1 1200s do make nice turbo bikes.

Has anyone done a Gen 2?

I have never seen one.
