Thumbs down Re: Ugly or functional...kwak 750s

For what it's worth I think they look terrible .

They are a bargain at that price but that's because they haven't sold well in the UK, so beware poor depreciation.

You pays y'money and y'takes y'choice.

Yep, have seen them in the flesh, and close up. Sorry but they do nothing for me.

I like the ones with two separate seats, and fly screen. Seen orange one with tail tidy and race can, looked like a right hooligan bike and its tyres were shredded. Someone asked me difference between seat arrangments other day but I don't know, is it age or faired or not that decides?

I sprayed mine with ACF50 and rode through last winter and there isn't any sign of rust or furring anywhere on it. I think Skip's one had a bit more rust than mine but I don't think he believes in ACF50.

I think that the Z is one of these bikes that looks good from some angles and not so good from other. It also seems to look better in flesh than in photos. Skip's bike also looks better than your average Z because of his pipe and tail tidy.

Here are some more "good angles"(me thinks):
