I finally found the time and the impetus to get the Z750 out from under its cover and take it out. First stop was the petrol station to fill up, and then out onto the open road for the first real test since its failure coming home from Silverstone Superbikes ( http://z750twinproject.info/ride-outs/kawasaki-z750-twin-goes-to-the-british-superbikes-at-silverstone/ ) so it was with a little apprehension I turned on the A5 dual carriageway after coming out of the garage.

Slowly accelerating up to the speed limit of 70mph, I was listening for the first sign of problems. After about a mile of the speed limit riding I relaxed and tarted to enjoy the ride. A few miles of dual carriageway, then off and back along the V4 Milton Keynes North route. Across the roundabouts and enjoying the wind in my last remaining hairs through my crash helmets vents.

Then near home I again took a detour along the A5 and North to Old Stratford before heading home, all with no sign of problems. Grreaat. I got home, and my daughters boyfriend watched as I pulled in. So I asked if he wanted a quick pillion ride. No need to ask twice so we set off again, a quick ride around the block as my daughter was giving him the evils as we left cos she was waiting to get out and hit the shops.

Felt great to be back on the Kawazaki Z 750 twin again, and now it feels like it’s problems are once again behind it I’m looking forward to another nice weekend for a rideout.
