A Portuguese outlet has revisited the Kawasaki Zephyr 750, launched in 1992 alongside siblings spanning 400cc to 1100cc. Its 738cc inline-four made 71 hp at 9,500 rpm, and the bike originally cost 1,228 contos, roughly €6,140 at the time.
Looking back, the Zephyr 750 was a symbol of the air-cooled revival of 1992. A 738cc inline-four making 71 horsepower, with an unadorned naked shape that carries its own meaning. Was this one bike the answer a racing-tired era was asking for? Having four siblings from 400cc to 1100cc says something about the depth of that era too.

The Zephyr and the CB750 Seven Fifty were classic rivals compared constantly in that era.
1,228 contos back then equaling about €6,140 today gives a real sense of period pricing.
How often does an air-cooled four need servicing? Genuinely curious as someone new to classics.
71hp at 9,500rpm is a very honest, linear character for an inline-four naked.
Of the four Zephyr siblings, the 750 always felt like the best balance — noticeably easier to live with.
It sparked the whole retro-naked revival — the design still doesn't feel dated today.
