this link looks nothing like the other tecate I have, or the '86 KX250 link.

Yes, possibly a Dura blue.

I have one like it on my 1984, although mine is in much worse shape. I have also noticed one on Ebay not long back for auction.
I have heard that the 2nd gen Tecate actually came with an adjustable strut. I don't know if that is true however, as I have only owned 84-85 Tecates. The turnbuckle on my strut was once anodized.

That adjustable link is Factory OEM. it came standard on the 2nd Generation 86/87 B2 series.

The 86-87 Tecates did come with an adjustable strut. This one, however, is not factory Kawasaki. I've never seen one like this so I can only take these guys word that it's Durablue. It is not Kawi, though.
Sweet piece BTW, Hondawasaki. (Let me know if you get tired of it!)

this is on a '86 KX but is virtually identical.

Really, so it isn't a durablue? The bike has a JP airbox lid as well so it makes sence. Thanks!

Yeah I think your right, I found a 250r link on the durablue site, it looks very similar.
