A superb motorcycle and magnificent engine that caused quite a stir back in the day with its innovative solutions. It massively overshadowed the reputation Honda had built, which managed to surprise everyone by unveiling its excellent Honda CB750 Four to the world, but Kawasaki bounced back brilliantly the following year, first presenting the 900, which achieved worldwide success eclipsing Honda's fame, and subsequently the 1000 cc. A thoroughly dependable and reliable engine, primary drive by gears, dual overhead camshafts, twin front disc brakes and single rear disc. Nimble and stable thanks to an excellent frame.
