Outstanding vid! Love these bikes!

My buddy's KZ650 gave my 750 honda a run for the money.

[firehawk400]

Man, I love my '80. The only downside is 5600 RPM @ 70 MPH...

[oafaloaf]

dude this guys is talking SO SLOW!

[annonymousmonky]

gotta agree, great stuff. i own a 1980 ltd 650, great ride, only complaint is no 6th gear, thing would be flawless with a 6th gear always feel like your running a bit high, but it does go when you want it to. love it.

[chaharly2]

You are right though, in fifth it feels like it wants to start to rattle, so you dont really wanna go too much faster...

[chaharly2]

God kawasaki owned back in the day...

yo tengo una del 79´ y es un caño.

[noblepuker]

nice original vid.I own a 78'KZ650 model that won't take my buddys 77'suzuki GS750.I love my KZ anyways.

[djsponge03]

I have a 78 kz 650 also, u must not have it properly tunned. The KZ should own your buddy's GS

[noblepuker]

heya sponge.my buds GS is jetted,and piped(so is mine).stock 1/4 mile on a 77 GS750 is 12.78,my 78 KZ650 is 13.30 or so(i prob can pull a flat 13 now,but hes prob at 12.50).1st thru 2nd gear we're even,as the gears go up he slowly leaves me.

@djsponge03

Despite what you said, and what the video says "outperforms any body else's 650 OR 750" the GS750 will in fact put a hurt on a KZ650, and not only in a straight line. The GS750 was released in 1977 (except for a few early 76s), after this video was made. The GS750 blew the competition out of the water.
