Launched in 1980 to head to head with the Kawasaki Z650, this powerful 71BHP @ a heady 9500rpm was a big sales success, not only was it as powerful and fast as most 750’s of the time, it had a well developed chassis, strong brakes all combined with handsome up the minute styling, and a very smooth low maintenance shaft drive, endearing it to the serious touring rider as well.
