Ridz's has gone and got himself another
Kawasaki! Yep after off loading his GPZ400 to some poor soul (me) he's gone and
got himself what was one of the lightest, smallest and dare I say explosive (as in Crr Bang) 250cc bikes around.
The Kawasaki KR-1S is a nice, light and fast bike. When it was introduced in the 1990's
It set a lot of peoples hearts racing, it could (depending upon who you speak to) reach over
145MPH!....From a little biddy 250cc!!!
I must admit I preferred the suzuki's RGV250 (But then I did own a Suzuki RG250 mk2 at the time) but what ever way you looked at
it you could not deny the KR-1S was a great bike and it almost obliterated the competition on the track.
Modifications:
Novo dark smoke screen (to hide behind?)
EBC double HH brake pads
12v Horn ?????
Future modifications:
Full engine rebuild (one required for every 500 miles)
Full set of 3 x 50l Givi panniers (aid handling)
Furry dice hanging from the mirrors (aid bike looks)
Those little crappy helmet ears (aid riders looks...boy does he need help)
Brand new, super light weight racing tyres (made from balsa wood some ware in Asia)
Special Hi-Vis pinstripe kit (go faster kit)
