Nope
Well apart from a few bits such as pistons.
Other than that it will look just like Big K would have built it
To explain that and to provide a reason for the KR-2 rather than KR-1
I will remind you of how Kawaski number their models
A1, A2
S1, S2, S3
Mach I, Mach II, Mach III and Mach IV
Now all should be clear
and before TSI chips in yes I know it is far from ideal but it is what Kwack would have done.
For a bit of background have alook at the predecessor of the KDX200/220 - the KDX175
Kawasaki always reused bits from one model on to the next.....

these days you would probably require 3 sets of 3D print outs
the bore and ducts,
another set for the water galleries, and third one for the cylinder jacket (exterior)
a colleague at work (part time design student) has had jewellery 3D printed in sterling silver
I think using SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) or SHS or DMLS process

investment casting titanium...

^^^ ask that hammer company to do a group buy on some conrods
3D printing in a material such as glass might be work for the voids - so it can be shattered and removed post casting (see ceramic slurry)
