Hello
found an engine with engine number KHI kr250BE 000024.
it is diverend than my other engines maybee a pre model engine?
hope you can read the number because it was hard to fotograph.
also the KHI stands at the other side.
also where the number is put it is flat and with the other engines it has a 30% deegree angle.
where the waterpumpshaft is going into the crankcases there is no lubricationhole
here is another engine and it has a hole there
never seen an engine like this.
maybee i have something rare.
does anybody ever seen an engine like this?
cheers Jarno

its value would have been priceless - unfortunately youve just drilled a lubrication hole into it
kidding, Jarno has already PM'd me. I didnt know the answer
but like all completely new models, castings/molds and assemblies get tweaked.
If the engine number plaque was left flat it would have been really hard to read when engine in frame for MOT etc
so they must have raised the stamping area at an angle - still not easy to read but improvement.
seems to authenticate this set of cases to be very early in production - the earliest we know of?
from our collected data we also know the Netherlands also had some the last KR-1S produced (last we know is still crated FACTORYRMS in USA)
