KR250N on the far right. No fairing, round headlight, separate chrome clocks and winkers.

That's an understatement TS
All thats missing is the bike they're all based on, anyone got Kork Ballington's phone number?
Love that Kr250N, I had no idea Kawasaki made a naked Kr250 |

Don't worry Howie, Top-Shaggy's right, it is a one-off special, nicely put together by my mate Tono-san who owns all 4 of those. Note the USD's on the KR-1R too. |

Spotted the forks on the Kr-1r, I have a set of forks from a Zxr250 that will go onto my Kr-1s project (eventually ).
Any more pics of the special StrokerBoy? |

No such thing as a KR250R either, that's what I'm calling my own tandem-twin special with ZXR400 USD front-end.
This is all I have of the KR250N I'm afraid. I think Scotta KR is also building one inspired by Tono's.

That Special is modern looking and pretty trick without going OTT
AR125 indicators front and back
AR125 mirrors
Clock/warning light set?? No idea - but they look brilliant !!
Still want one

Thanks for link Tim
Very interesting - be great fun to have one of those - done properly no one would know what it was..
Looking at the ZXR/ZRX bits required the indicators still look the same as the AR front (UK) units and probably the same as the rear import KR1 units.
The mirrors are not ZXR - look like GPZ305/AR125 to me
The clocks are a work if art - suspected that was one of the harder bits to sort out and sounds like it too..
Just needs a little TLC moving or covering loom in places and it would look like a factory model - KHI would be proud
Erm... And still want one - beautiful ! _________________ We are where we are... |

Cracking link, StrokerBoy
Why do I now find myself lusting after the Kr250 more than a H1?
Its funny how your 'list of must own' changes or at least your priorities change
Still want a H1 though |
