The Z2 750RS is a 746 cc air-cooled DOHC transverse four from Kawasaki, sold in 1973 as the 750RS (the RS meaning is uncertain). It was offered only in Brown/Orange, and differed from the Z1 in its 42-tooth rear sprocket and a speed warning above 80 km/h. Production ended in October 1973 when it was replaced by the Z2A.
