In the last days Trick Starthe Japanese company specialized in the marketing of all types of accessories and equipment for motorcyclists, announced on its various social networks the “Z900RS Turbo Project”. An idea that they are already working on and that is quite similar to the ZX-4R Turbo that they presented at the end of 2024. Then the objective was to exceed 300 km/h, thanks to being able to increase the power to 130 HP.
Z900RS Turbo Project: Ducati Superleggera trembles
As explained by the ideologues of this ambitious project, the Z900RS Turbo Project begins “the challenge of pushing naked motorcycles to the limit.” And they are right in stating this since their objective is, nothing more and nothing less, to achieve “overwhelming performance that surpasses even the “Superleggera””.
They make it clear that this is not just a custom modification: “Witness the beginning of a new legend that no one has seen before in real time! We will regularly upload development documentaries, power tests and real-world test videos. We will also continue our challenge to reach 300 km/h with the ZX-4R TURBO!”they conclude.
From the Japanese media Young Machine they wonder how far this naked machine, without fairing, can go in terms of power and speed? And they confirm that the first tests of this Z900RS Turbo Project will take place throughout the year. next month of august. There is no doubt that Trick Star faces one of the biggest challenges it has faced to date. Even more so if we take into account that Akashi’s striking neo retro performs as standard 116 HP at 9,300 rpm.
For its part, the Superleggera V4 manages to literally double this figure in its track version, thanks to an unbeatable power/weight ratio of 1.54 HP/kg. This translates into a top speed greater than 300 km/h. We assume that Trick Star will manage to bring the specifications of the Z900RS Turbo Project above 150 HP, in addition to implementing some modifications to eliminate unnecessary weight.
In any case, we must remember that we are talking about a naked frame, without any protection. Therefore, it is affected on an aerodynamic level, although we are completely sure that its creators will be able to tackle this type of problem based on countless technological additions.
For now we just have to wait for new updates to the project, although we are truly eager for these to be shared with all of us.
