All auctions / Vehicles / 2017 – Kawasaki KX 250cc, formerly ridden by Oriol Oliver, Chassis
No registration certificate; no MOT This 2017 Kawasaki KX 250 is no ordinary machine. Behind its iconic green livery lies a mechanical secret that makes it a unique machine: a Kawasaki KX 250 frame paired with a KTM 125 cm³ engine – an unlikely combination born of the demands of competition and the pragmatism of the people involved. A prototype, in the most literal sense of the word. This machine was Oriol Oliver’s official ride for the 2017 season. Bespoke-built to meet the rider’s specific needs, it bears witness to the behind-the-scenes work carried out far from the spotlight – the work of mechanics and teams who have no qualms about defying convention to gain tenths of a second. The combination of the two brands is no coincidence. The Kawasaki chassis, renowned for its rigidity and precision, houses KTM’s engine, whose two-stroke single-cylinder unit is recognised as one of the absolute benchmarks in the category. This particular example has been prepared for competition; two models were produced – one for training and the other for racing. A certificate from Kawasaki Spain attests to this.

The motorbike is in the same condition as it was at the end of its last championship race. The fuel tank has been emptied and the carburettor cleaned. Today, a machine like this goes far beyond the scope of a mere collector’s motorcycle. It is a competition machine steeped in history, identifiable, traceable and absolutely irreplaceable. An opportunity that will not come along again.
