The KT250 was Kawasaki's first production trials machine.  It had a 69.5 x 65 mm [[piston port]] [[two-stroke]] engine based on that of the [[Kawasaki F11]].  It had a maximum power output of 16bhp @ 6,500 rpm and was the first Japanese trials bike to be competitive with those produced by the Spanish.  Carburetion was via a 26mm Mikuni and it weighted in at a competitive 211.4lb.  The machine as a whole was based on a racing works bike developed by European Trials champion [[Don Smith]].
