looking to buy an 84
looking to buy an 84
hey people,
i'm from Canada and i've been browsing around the site for little while now. trying to get some info. I wanna make a project bike and i know theres tons of info here about the GPZ turbo.
i may have found a very clean 84.. just would like to know what to look for when buying it.
i know i will take off the intake pipe to see is the turbo shaft is loose and if the impellor fins are ok and to see if there is oil alot too.
also will see if the race mode has been enabled.. apparently from what i saw until now, the bike is completly stock..
anything else i should do to inspect ? take the compression maybe ?
the bike has 49 000 km on it and from the pic i have , it supposed to be VERY clean.
i,ll take more pics when i go to see it in a 3 days.

Salut mon bleuet, sans t'insulter, c'est plus tot rare de parler francais sur ce site.
J'ai été voir cette moto à québec il ya environ 6 semaines. Belle photos mais ne vos pas le prix demandé, beaucoup trop de chose à réparer. Je l'ai essayé et le moteur semble bien fonctionner mais le turbo semble être essouffler. La moto semble avoir 49000Km au compteur mais elle doit en avoir bien plus.
Je suis heureux de ne pas avoir acheter cell-ci car j'ai trouvé la perle rare en Ontario.
J'ai vu sur le net un autre bijoux sur le net à London Ontario. Vérifie si tu peux la retrouvé sur google.
Si tu as des problème, laisse moi savoir

Hi Guys. Bonjour les gars. Another guy from Quebec here. Chateauguay actually.
I have bought 3 turbos this year, trying to spend myself out of depression I think. One was in pieces, another looked good but the motor is supposed to be a dead, primary chain, and the third is supposed to have a good motor. I bought them as project bikes and the project has stalled. I have to clean up the basement and bring one down in the winter to fix up. I want to restore one and build a "drag bike" with another.
