For sale is my 1989 Kawasaki ZX750 H1. I’ve owned it since 2003. It has 25k miles. Full Muzzy Exhaust/header, jets, k and n filters, sprockets, tail light is from an RC51 with exact same dimensions so nothing was cut or chopped. I have the OE front turn signals. I took the rear tire off and put it on my other bike and put that tire on this bike in order to roll it around. It is not perfect but it’s in really good condition. To ride it it would need a tune up and a new battery. Come check it out for yourself. There are not too many of these around anymore especially ones that aren’t chromed out or custom. I also had a brand new stator/generator installed. There are 3 cracks that can be repaired on the left fairing. Two are easily visible and the third I am pointing at in the blue.

In search of loving (slightly mad) motorcycle enthusiast that can repair blemished fairing and get this bike back out on the street.
Getting more rare to find these, so wanted to share. According to Haggerty these are worth $10,500 in GOOD condition. Back in 2021 RSBFS posted a low-mile pristine example of this bike going for $18k.
Mesmerizing Hooligans since 1989
According to Mike at RSBFS, “In the 1980s all the major Big Four manufacturers were geared up to go racing. This was a massive boon to the consumer; not only did racing improve the overall breed, race-ready bikes showed up in the showrooms as homologation models. And while Honda and Yamaha produced actual race bikes with street concessions (read: RC30 and OW01, respectively), Kawasaki brought an excellent street bike to the party. Capable of being tuned into a fire-breathing racer by privateers, the H1 was an upper echelon sport bike for the masses.
The ZX750 H1 has all the basics that make it an excellent platform – but without the super exclusivity of the Honda and Yamaha specials. That did not make the Kawi any less special, just less pricey. Yet all the goods were there from the beginning with the twin spar aluminum frame tying together multi-adjustable suspension front and rear with a jewel of a 108-ish HP inline four and 6-speed tranny mounted in the middle. All this was draped with endurance racer bodywork (including elephant snorkels to bring fresh air into the airbox) and drenched in gallons of lime green paint. The effect was significant, and hooligans everywhere were mesmerized. Aspiring professionals could obtain a race kit to unleash the inner beast and turn this street machine into a racetrack razor.”
Since these were not made in low production numbers, they were on the streets and enjoyed as intended. This is what makes them so rare now.
Good luck to the buyer and seller!
