Julz has given it away to me with his sharp eyes that spotted the curved brake arm. Of course everyone else has guessed without giving it away. There is only one bike I know with a curved brake arm like that and it was green. TerrY

Julz, you are absolutely right. Owning a Kawasaki KT 250 makes it easy to spot the many unique styling cues.
This is how it came to me and I maintain the only GREEN I can see is Scenery!

Lovely strong motor (as long as you can live with the bonga bonga bong sound). Excellent brakes (for a drum braked twinshock). Reliable CDI spark. Lovely green colour... What more could you want (apart from the need to use lots of body English to keep the front wheel on line)?
Apologies if I gave it away. I am not a subtle person sorry...
I miss my KT. Unfortunately the new owner has been having issues with the carb jamming open and the revs getting away on him.
I wasn't biting at the identification game, but curiosity has got the better of me. I just have to ask Greg, what form of witchcraft was being used to make the bike appear to levitate in the various different pictures? Was it photo-shopped onto your backyard backgrounds? Or did you fling it into the air and click the camera just before it landed each time?
