The Kawasaki Z750 Has its love it or else look, someone said to me, its a like a big Transformer.
Transform its does on the road, whether you need this scoot as daily commuter or freeway cruiser and twisty fang beast, the Kawasaki Z750 could be the machine for you. 
Its one of those greatly underrated packaged bikes, with all its great Kawasaki trademark specs and feel.
Its a a terrific ride and very comfortable, the seat could be a touch softer on the cheeks, but this can be looked into later.
Seating position, at first glanced once seated is the Tacho and bars-no view of petrol tank at all, it's very upright with wide handlebars , but not stretched out-so you have plenty of give to move around in the seat if needed when approaching twistys or heavy traffic conditions.
Bike was riden in some windy conditions and felt very stable head on and side on during a test run and was impressive considering the lack of front fairing.
Your legs tuck under the molded tank(for your legs/knees) and peg position seem perfect and you can hang on tightly when turning the throttle to get away from traffic if needed.
 
Riding it, I was at ease from the start, with its seating position(new to nakeds), first few
turns into the twistys the kawasaki Z750 reminds you that there is very few tights turns as this bikes handles them with ease able to twist the power on earlier than you would be use too, and its very smooth gearbox makes shifting gears very neat when needed, some twisty sections tested the front suspension, but I am sure a few tweaks of the front end rebound and preload and a little touch of the rear spring would be great for the rider and bike.
The scaled down Kawasaki Zx9 engine has a great history of power and bullet proof performance, unmistakable Kawasaki power and sound. The standard exhaust on this bike, is not everyone favorite in the looks department , but in reality it provides the correct amount of sound feedback, as you know when your planting the power on or cruising on the freeways with its unmistakable low down torque sound to remind you that there is more power. 
As a commuter and weekend ride its ideal as you have plenty of torque power on tap during freeway cruise and plenty zing power to swerve around heavy city traffic and must not forget the all important stopping power from the dual pod large wave disc brakes-tried and tested and with its upright seating -gives you ample view of traffic conditions ahead.
All in all a great underrated Kawasaki package, Z750
Cheers
