That is a 1981/82 Kawasaki KR250 tandem twin. Here is a great article from Superbike Planet: http://www.superbikeplanet.com/kr250.htm And some more: http://motorbike-search-engine.co.uk/classic_bikes/kawasaki-kr250-history.php Keep up the good work, Lawrence

Had it in the archive a while and forgot where I got it... An inline twin, dry clutch, belt drive,monoshock rotary valve Kawasaki racebike...  Ummm... I'm stumped.

    Simply put: this is Kawasaki's most successful racing bike… forget the triples, this Ruled GP racing for a minimum of 3 years.
