The '''[[Kawasaki]] GPX 750R''' was a Liquid cooled, four stroke, transverse four cylinders, DOHC, 4 valves per cylinder Sport touring [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Kawasaki]] in 1987. Max [[torque]] was 56.8 ft/lbs (77.0 Nm) @ 8500 RPM. Claimed [[horsepower]] was 105.94 HP (79.0 KW) @ 10500 RPM. 
 
==Engine==
A 67.8mm [[bore]] x 67.8mm [[stroke]] result in a [[displacement]] of just 742.0 cubic centimeters. 
 
==Drive==
The bike has a 6-Speed transmission. Power was moderated via the Wep multi-discs. 
 
==Chassis==
It came with a 110/90-16 front [[tire]] and a 140/70-18 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via 2x270mm discs 4 piston calipers in the front and a Single 230mm disc 2 piston [[caliper]] in the rear. The front suspension was a  38mm telehydraulic forks electrically activated anti-dive while the rear was equipped with a Uni-track air assisted 4-way rebound damping adjustment. The wheelbase was 58.9 inches (1496 mm) long.

This new engine gave the ability to Kawasaki to make it lighter and smaller than other 750, without skimping on power. The engine produces a maximum peak output power of 106 hp (79 kW) at 10500 rpm and a maximum torque of 78 Nm (57.3 lb-ft) at 8500 rpm . With this drive-train, the Kawasaki GPX 750R is capable of reaching a maximum top speed of 238.7 km/h (148.3 mph).
