slice Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Hi Folks, well just got off the phone with a mate, he has a friend that wants to sell his 3 bikes, A Honda 750/4 1982 model a Kawasaki 750/4 Zephyr1992 model and a Kawasaki 750/4 1980 model. Anyone on here ever had one of these? Any thoughts on what they are like and a general "Are they worth bothering with" type thing, if you've owned one I would like to hear from you cos I have never had any of them and was just wondering if they are right dog's or worth having a fiddle with. Looks like my new year will start with 3 new bikes in the shed if the price is right and I can get SWMBO to agree to actually let go of the notes !!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I never owned any of those but I had a long term loan (about 9 months whilst my pal was serving a ban) of a Z1100 and had access to the z1000 ( my mate liked my auld Bonnie and would ask to use it on the occasional weekend, so I got his). Going on them I would go for the 1980 Z750. Is it the custom model (750Ltd) if so I would deffo go for that. I always liked the look of they models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy xs Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Blackie seemed to like the Kwackers, but then he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Get the 3, then shift on the Honda. Not too much knowledge but I think the Honda 750/4 had chocolate cams, although it may have been the earlier models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slice Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 To be honest Jimmy I have been more than busy with the FJ, got the rear end apart at the moment and just not had time to give the guy a call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhat250 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Just seen this , The kwak 750-4 it must be the LTD custom, either that or the Z2 it was only available in japan,, The Zephers are a good workhorse, no value tho, The Honda will be the F2- 750-4 ,,, Bland , 4 Into 1 exhaust,, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Great looking bikes John, I would have a Kwak Ltd any day of the week......as long as it sat aside my Bonnie and not instead of. And to keep it Yam related, I would love an xs650, and in fact I was thinking of swapping/selling my auld Triumph for one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhat250 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Aye jim the XS650 is a lovely copy of a British twin.. Kawasaki made some fine looking bikes in the 1970"s and 80"s LTD"s are cheapish here was the illiminator ZL900 1985. I had one, GPZ engine , ">http:// Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
