KR fairings
Did some of the KR tandem twins come out with just the top fairing and some with both the top and an additional piece to join up to the belly pan. I have just bought a KR 250 A 85 model according to the seller. I will be getting it Thursday and have been doing some searching for parts as the top fairing is missing. Most of the pictures I have seen have been with the complete fairing but there have been a few with just the top piece. Suggestions anyone?.

The little filler panels that join the top fairing and belly pan are often missing/broken. I'm pretty sure they were fitted to all KR's. I've never had them fitted to mine (the ones that came with it were badly broken), and I even trimmed back the lower section of the top fairng when I first rebuilt it. I've since taken that off too and gone naked instead though. It's all a matter of taste.
Cheers, Scott.

I've still got a standard green/white top fairing somewhere (think it's in my mates shed ), but it's a little rough from memory. Postage for such an awkward item would probably suck though.

Yeah, you see quite a few without the fairing sides 'cos they're hard to find and fragile in the first place. Took the bellypan off mine last week and the bottom of the LH side-fairing crumbled apart. Bodged it back together with superglue and some reinforcing plastic strip.
All KR's were sold new with the same full bodywork, but 20 years on you see some creative modifications that look 'factory', like Tono's naked one.
I've got a couple of (damaged) top fairings but no side-fairings. They come up for sale on Yahoo Auctions Japan now and again though. Lots of top fairings on there !

Looking forward to seeing it.ScottaKR wrote:Tim, I still need to send you some new pics of my KR for your site since I've finally finished the conversion. Just need to give it a good detail first, but they'll be on the way soon.
Wish I had something to say about my own bikes. Although I was just given a complete top-end and assorted engine parts to add to my stash. Square-four anyone ?
