This is the final offering from Kawasaki in the Z1 / Z2 style

Its direct equivalent would have been the Z1000-A2 and for once KHI did adopt some of the ‘improvements’ associated with the Z1000 range. At last, the rear disc brake found its way onto the model and similarly, the twin discs up front changed to behind the forks configuration. However, the bike retained its 4 into 4 exhaust system and black engine and so still retained quite a strong resemblance to its Z1 / Z900 heritage.

The D1 went into production in June 1977 and was offered in both of the Z1000-A2 colour options of Luminous Red or Green with Gold stripes.

For some reason KHI altered the steering angle to 64.5° from 64° and perhaps for this reason a brand new frame number series started. The first number allocated was KZ750D000101. The engine however remained the same as all its predecessors and continued to keep the Z2E…. number code – the start number being Z2E21001.

The only mid-term change to parts was on the swing arm. The first 400 bikes had a single needle bearing per side (92046-061). From Frame Number KZ750D000501, the Swing Arm had 2 needle bearings per side.

Production finally came to an end in November 1978 after approximately 3800 units had been manufactured.
