Posted December 29, 201410 yr 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 !!!
December 29, 201410 yr 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
December 29, 201410 yr Author Thanks Jimmy, it's not just the one you understand he wants me to take all 3 !
December 29, 201410 yr 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
January 9, 201510 yr Author 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.
January 17, 201510 yr 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,,
January 18, 201510 yr 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
January 18, 201510 yr 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://
