Kawasaki Heavy Industries is one of the largest corporations in Japan, producing a wide range of products from rolling stock to ships. After taking over the ailing Meguro Motorcycle Co., they began manufacturing motorcycles under the Kawaski name in the early ’60s, first continuing development of the K1—a near-copy of the BSA A10—but soon moving on to build a reputation for high performance two-stroke twins and triples. In the early '70s, the four-stroke four-cylinder Z1 started to be developed as a 750 to compete with the new Honda SOHC 750, but Kawasaki held the bike back until it could be increased in capacity to set a new benchmark for superbike performance. With its DOHC 900cc engine offering a top speed of over 130mph, it easily became the fastest mass-produced bike in the world, beginning a long line of four-cylinder superbikes of all shapes and sizes.
This KZ750 is the custom-style LTD or Limited model, produced mainly for the American market and quite rare in Britain. The bike is showing a credible 6,900 miles on the speedometer and is presented in standard trim including its original KHI K 022 stamped four-into-two exhaust system. It has recently been fitted with new Continental tyres, brake pads, hoses and a new chain and sprocket kit and comes supplied with its original owner's manual and a current V5C.
