Kawasaki file

The ZXR 750 J1 was an update of the H models with 43 mm upside-down forks, a lighter aluminium perimeter chassis, a short-stroke engine and 38 mm CVKD carburettors. Its power was held to 100 hp to suit an anticipated European limit, which the page says was never enforced, so it gave up peak power to the earlier H and later K models. The page credits it with better mid-range and better handling than the H2.
