Blandit 1200 in Unitrak frame, to turbo or flat slides?

[Motovalet]

So I’ve had this for over a year now, not my build and tweaked it here and there and sorted a few issues but really want to make the bike “my bike” and put my mark on it. I’ve been chatting with FBM discussing a turbo and I’m kind of thinking that’s the route I’ll go down but also looking at alternative ways to improve performance, looks etc. and pricing up flat slides and some proper dyno time? Either way it’ll be getting fresh paint. Interested in real world road experience of a turbo install and nice carbs. I’m well aware of the dot head, cams upgrade etc. as well but there’s no room on this build for the carbs to fit on the dot head and besides the complete short stroke 748 motor is now in my GSX750ES!

Turbo's are cool & really fast

Standard B12 carbs on all 3 bikes above

A stockish B12 will always be hamstrung by its compression so to remedy that it's big bore time which will get the forged pistons to suit either NA or turbo routes. If you want circa 150hp NA some headwork &/or cams will be needed. Obvs turbo is sky's the limit.

This is begging for a draw thru system .
