I haven't had any experience with the KR-2, but have you considered the
Sonex? It can be plans or kit built. All aluminum, cruise 130 stall 40.
Conventional or tri-gear. I'm in the process of building one now. You can
check out their web site at:

I am not associated with Sonex Ltd in anyway, just my .02

IMHO, the KR-2 is a marginal airplane, with an engine of marginal
reliability. I don't know what your flying experience is, but, being a
very small plane, the KR-2 will have a rather high sink rate and low
_penetration," where it will shed velocity rather quickly with power
loss.

I have seen a few of them, although I have never flown one, but I
believe that they have some landing gear problems. I have never seen one
that looked good (smooth surfaces, good workmanship, etc.).
