This was the last in the 250 range. Only one color was
offered, Kawasaki racing lime green. The black side panels were fitted with badges that
only said '250' with the 'KH' logo printed on the side of the seat. Kork Ballington had
recently won the 250 and 350 World Championships and Kawasaki wanted to cash in on this,
so the B5 was painted in racing colors to attract the dwindling 250 customers. |
