The Kawasaki 250cc two stroke sport bikes were part of the KR series. These, were the alternatives to Suzuki’s RGV, Honda’s NSR and Yamaha’s TZR. All of them were more or less extreme race replica bikes. In particular the KR1 with its parallel twin motor was among the fastest. It also had a great chassis and a beautiful color scheme, perfectly suited for a sport focused bike. I am sure that some of you will have their heart beating faster when you see this. Whether this will be caused by a deep sense of nostalgia, a feeling of dejavois or an irresistible desire to buy once again what you (regretfully) let go some years ago, it doesn’t really matter. What matters now, is that in Germany, a nice fellow is offering you the possibility to realize a small dream. And I say “nice fellow” because in the background of his garage, below the Ferrari sign, there is a Martini sponsored Vespa, which means we might have a true petrol head here.
The opportunity is given with this low mileage and unmolested Kawasaki KR1-S model. With less than 23000 km it is also in full original condition.
If these pictures aren’t enough to convince you, then have a listen to this:

This quite rare (for the conditions) smoker is available for a mere 2900 EUR BIN !
As I said, better be fast on this one…

super cool , but might as well be on the moon 🙁
Fun bike for sure my friend has an 89 KR250B almost same bike it’s smaller feeling then my VJ22 & MC21’s it’s closer to my friends TZR 2MA in size.
My 2nd favorite bike next to the RG500, wish it was closer.
