What are the advantages of a naked bike?

What exactly makes the Kawasaki Z 750 a naked bike? And why is that important for you as the owner? Naked bikes are known for their minimalist design without large fairings, making the engine and frame fully visible. The Kawasaki Z 750 fits perfectly into that category: sporty, clean, and without unnecessary frills.

This comes with benefits. Since the parts are easy to access, it's simpler for DIY riders to make adjustments—think handlebars, mirrors, or lighting. The low weight also contributes to a direct and playful riding experience. In 2025, the naked bike remains popular among riders who seek control and simplicity.

Maintaining the chain and sprockets of the Z 750

The chain set of the Kawasaki Z 750 is one of the parts that wears out the quickest, especially with sporty riding or high mileage. On average, a chain set on a Kawasaki Z 750 lasts between 15,000 and 25,000 kilometers, depending on riding style and maintenance.

When should the chain be replaced?

Clean the chain every 500 to 1000 kilometers, depending on the weather and usage. Use a chain cleaner and an appropriate brush. After cleaning, lubricate the chain with special chain spray, preferably after a ride when the chain is still warm. Also check the tension and adjust if necessary: a chain that is too tight or too loose causes additional wear. Is the chain showing rust, stiffness, or uneven wear? Then it's time to replace the whole set.

Dealing with a stiff clutch lever?

Noticing your Kawasaki Z 750’s clutch lever becoming harder to operate? This is a common issue, especially on models with higher mileage. In most cases, the cause is a worn or poorly lubricated clutch cable . A dry or dirty pivot point of the lever itself can also create extra friction.

Fortunately, this problem is easy to solve.

→ Start by thoroughly cleaning and lubricating both the cable and the pivot point.

If the lever remains stiff, the cable likely needs replacement. A new clutch cable is affordable and can be installed with some basic mechanical skills.

Replacing the clutch cable on your Kawasaki Z 750

New clutch cables are available as original Kawasaki parts or as affordable aftermarket alternatives. Replacing a clutch cable is fairly straightforward.

• Make sure the engine is cool.


• Disconnect the old cable at the clutch and the handlebar.


• Follow the route of the old cable and install the new one in the same way.


• Attach both ends and adjust the slack according to the manual.


• Move the lever a few times to check that everything runs smoothly.

Tip: Use a bit of cable grease to extend the cable’s life and keep it moving smoothly.

Popular upgrade for more comfort

Suffering from seat discomfort during long rides? You’re not alone. Many riders find the stock seat too hard or too flat for touring. Fortunately, there are plenty of options to improve this.

You can opt for a comfort seat with thicker padding or gel inserts, which makes a noticeable difference on long distances. You can also lower or raise the seat—handy for riders who want better ground reach or a sportier riding position.
