In the world of boutique race bikes, Kramer is enjoying a tremendous amount of success – and the love of some industry pros including Troy Siahaan at Motorcycle.com and Jensen Beeler at Asphalt & Rubber. The one sentence difference between Kramer’s offerings is that the S is for trackdays and the R is for racing.
The R uses a KTM 690 motor which is good for 80 horsepower and upgraded with dual counterbalancers. Other improvements include a superior braking package and forged wheels. The trellis frame is made from a CrMo steel for increased stiffness, with an adjustable rake that can be tailored to a rider’s desired fit. Instead of storing the gas in the tank, Krämer opted to put the fuel cell in the tail. The XPE plastic subframe holds a little over four gallons.
For its suspension, the 690 R rides on 43mm WP forks with adjustable preload, compression, and rebound damping up front and a WP shock absorber with KMC Link System at the rear. Brembo handles the braking up front mated to twin 290mm discs.
Tying everything together is a set of lightweight fiberglass bodywork that comes reinforced with carbon and kevlar. Thanks to the relocation of the tank (a space now occupied by the airbox) and the forged aluminum Dymag wheels, total weight for the bike comes in at a svelte 276 pounds!
This example is VIN: KMC10084513000030.
The odometer shows 1,966 miles.
