A number of 80s models are counterclockwise first until hard to turn, then clockwise 1/4 turn. The owner's manual may specify the direction. I think it's mentioned in the 81 or 82 supplement of the FSM.

Manual. There is a Kawasaki pdf service manual available for the 750-4. I haven't check KZR, but it is available at the 750turbo.com site in the Resource Zone >> Downloads. It should have a yellow-gold cover w color wiring diagrams. There's also a poorly copied black-&-white version floating around the internet, so be sure to get the good pdf.

Thanks for posting.
The problem is Clymer doesn't recognize that there is more than one type of adjuster. Their instructions are for one type, but not the other.
