The Z 750 , which has been built since 2004, is a sporty naked bike from the Japanese manufacturer Kawasaki with a peak output of 110 hp . It is the little sister of the Kawasaki Z 1000 and fills the gap between the 600 models on the one hand and the large 1000 cc on the other hand with its 748 cm³ displacement, which is rather exotic on current naked bikes . In 2007 a new version of the model appeared with slightly changed technical data and a new design. In addition, in 2005 and 2006 there was a classic sports tourer as the Z 750 S variant .
