Nah, Kawasaki were using the Dark Green colour at the same time as the "Team Green" colour.
See the early Z1s and some of their late 60s bikes.
Here is an early example of both on the same bike (an H1 500cc);

My first introductions to both Greens were on a Z650C for the dark, and a KX250 for the "Team".
I like both but feel they are even better in combination.  :punk:

Dark green 1972/3 Z900 is the definitive 70's superbike, I know the CB750 was first, but it was only single cam and just not as sporty.

Z900 was my first ever bedroom poster, i still want one, couldn't afford one back then, deffo cant afford a good one now.
