MR TURBO Bikes in Bikes & Motorcycle Directory

    

Mr Turbo, like many businesses, started out as a hobby. Ted Hoffmeister was a very eager enthusiast, from the Chicago area, who in the late 70’s teamed up with industry and drag racing pioneer, Ken Tipton of MTC Engineering. Turbo charging motorcycles was still in its infancy back then, and with the right influence from Tipton, Hoffmeister proceeded to bring turbo street and drag bikes to the fore front of the high performance motorcycle scene. Tipton and Hoffmeister shared in the early development and ingenuity of those first KZ 900 and GS 1100 systems, bringing new technology and first class machining techniques to the table for the first time. “Billet” was not even a coined phrase at that point in time, but billet parts were part of the “clean and sanitary” look, seen in these new hot rod parts for bikes. Hoffmeister even spent time in the early stages of planning this business, with the original turbo system innovator, Bill Hahn Sr.
