Considering its age, its still a quick bike. Pretty handling (not for racing!)
Reliable engine, just extra attention with the cams, "rockers". Do not rev it higher (start) than about 2000 rpm's. Let the oil sets in the higher regions of the engine.
Maybe a fiddle job, there is the famous Kawa-choke: up to 5500 rpm, without enough oil.... will hurt him.
Further its a fine Grand Tourer, can cruise with up to 170 km/h (Germany)
Also price-quality is the best you can get. Mine was € 600,- ! Excellent state, 61.000km, still runs fantastic!
I'm a happy classic Kawa GPX 750R pilot!
Have a nice trip
