Love the Zephyr bikes! I was looking for one in the mid 90s to replace a worn out KZ750, but they were (and still are) rare and hard to find. I ended up with a leftover '93 Nighthawk still in the crate. Both bikes are remarkably similar. The Zephyr was not built to a price point like the Nighthawk, therefore it got better brakes and suspension. The Nighthawk had the 16 valve CBX750 powerplant (detuned), while the Zephyr retained the old 8 valve mill basically unchanged from the original '80 KZ750.
Hey Roper, carbs are not so bad as long as you don't let them sit and get gummed up with old fuel. I have never let my CB750 sit idle and the 4 carbs on it have never been touched since new. The only other thing I do is run a can of Seafoam through a couple of times a year.
