I've seen a project KR1-S 250 for £100.

Been stood years, no seat or fairings, needs ignition barrel, full service and attention to carbs/cables/brakes.

Never owned a 2T, am VERY tempted even though my Gix aint finished yet! Laughing

Thinking of it as a winter project, and maybe a twisties toy come summer...

Any thoughts? Worth it or are kwaks a pain in the arse? What are they like to ride/work on?

If you decide not to take it, would you pass me the details?

I used to own a KR1S and quite fancy one to play around with! Thumbs Up

Really? Saw quite a few seats and bits on eGay Laughing but did notice wemoto was quite sparse...

Hmm. Thinking

Barry - my first thought was to post details up here as BCF'ers are always after cheap projects - then I thought 'hang on, I wannit!!'

If however I decide against it/can't arrange collection I'll PM you details. Thumbs Up

Oh, they are not known for their handling, more for their straight line speed Wink

Decided against it. I don't have a van to collect it, and I should really get the gixxer mot'd first!! Laughing
