Rumour had it that was one of the most expensive 2 strokes at that time and filled with one off custom parts. Would love to see what goodies they had made for that bike.

Sorry for bringing up an old thread, but whilst looking for some KHI bits for my KX250, I come across this thread and this page with some cool bits, like the KHI petcock! Never seen a works fuel tap before!

I'd forgotten about this thread. Very glad to see it resurrected, especially with pictures of that bike!

I was going to post that 2004 Jan de Groot Kawasaki. I still can't work out how it works. Such a shame he passed away.
There were claims a few years back that the under frame shock was going in to production.

I realize this is from 2018 but I’ve always been intrigued by this bike too. It’s a “pull” shock, so when the swing arm travels up the linkage pulls the shock together from front to rear. Pretty cool, some downhill bikes had it in the early 2000s.
That's what I thought, but for some reason I couldn't get my head around the mechanics behind it actually working in this instance.
