Hi all,

I bought a new old Kawasaki twostroke Motorcycle. See the pictures below:

This is a KR1S from 1992. 2 Cylinder 2-stroke engine with 250cm³ and 60 HP. The weight is only 131 Kg

I always got confused with the KR's..... that one is a crosswise (parallel) twin as opposed to a longitudinal twin, yes?

Wow, I didn't know that Europe didn't get the longitudinal twin. A Friend of mine won some serious races on a race-bike Longitudinal twin, way back!

A very few longitudinal kawasaki 250 road bikes came as grey import in UK but the weak points for those models are parts for euro guys :mrgreen:
