I guess the best answer here is... it depends.  I'm going to base all my 
information off the KR2S design since it is an improvement over the KR2 
design

According to the official design specs from http://www.fly-kr.com/ :

Gross Weight            980 lbs.
Useful load             460 lbs.

Which gives an empty weight of 540 lbs.

 From what I've been reading most KRs end up with an empty weight closer 
to 700 lbs, but then again they up the gross weight to around 1000-1200 
lbs.  (Do not plan on doing any high G maneuvers at this weight.  And 
search the archives   http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp   for 
more details, its been discussed before).

Lets use the 460 lb useful load.  With 16 gallons of fuel, thats 16*6=96 
lbs. so we are down to 364 lbs.  If you and your fiance weigh the same 
you'd better be under 182 lbs. each.

Hope this helps with your decision.
