Not a KR but its older brother
My KH250 i used to have in the early 80's it had allspeeds, mag wheels
(rare at the time) and a FLF fairing/seat unit and was slow as f
ck
FLF used to make these units for the X7 (heron? rep) and RD250/400
(akai rep) - anyone else remember them

Nice bike Garry. They were so loud with those pipes, great for really annoying people

sold it to a guy through MCN - it looked modern for the time but
was really down in power - a case of all show and no go
got an LC350 after that and swore i'd never get a Kwak again - i
guess you should never say never !

Very nice.
Ian Dyson used to do those one-piece bodykits for Kawasaki and Suzuki triples too - I had a rough but complete one that I let go when I sold my S3 400 last year.
Didn't someone do a 3-1 exhaust for the KH250 too, that reduced performance even more but sounded like the end of the world ?

think it was piper - as i recall they made them for quite a few of
the 2 stroke triples - weird noise
