Asphalt & Rubber put it best when diving into the HKR Evo2, “though crunching the numbers helps justify the cost of the Kramer to some extent, the real selling point of the HKR Evo2 lineup is the no-compromises approach to these racing machines. These are bikes designed for the track – they are not adaptions from road-legal motorcycles – and it shows in their design.”
In practice, this means that everything on the bike has been engineered with fast lap times in mind. Powered by an 75hp 690cc KTM single with a high-flow head, an ultralight piston, and a high-strength connecting rod, it’s complemented by a chromium-molybdenum steel trellis frame, 43mm WP forks, a WP rear shock, and Brembo brakes. What’s more, Krämer designed the tail section to serve as a fuel cell, lowering the center of gravity and making the bike more compact in footprint.
And here’s the thing: despite the Evo2’s svelte 285-pound dry weight, it was built to push the envelope. Beneath the fiberglass bodywork, Krämer reinforced the mounting and high-stress points with carbon kevlar. Elsewhere, the bike features crash protection on the frame, the tail, the heel guards, and the swingarm.
Within the HKR Evo2 lineup, the S is billed as the more approachable, track-day-friendly bike. Accordingly, it boasts a single 320mm rotor up front, cast aluminum wheels, and a Koso instrument panel. If you’d like to learn more about the bike, check it out on Krämer’s website here!
If you’ve been following along on social, you’ll know that Abhi recently campaigned his Krämer in the Sound of Singles I class at Laguna Seca for AHRMA. We’ve included some onboard footage so you can appreciate what these machines can do!
This example is VIN: KMC10084513000087. The seller purchased the bike Summer 2023 intending to race in AHRMRA Sound of Singles I. He states, “I bought this direct from Krämer USA after hunting for a nearly-new example. Krämer USA owner Joe Karvonen told me that this example had been used a test bike to dial in settings for Andreani suspension cartridge inserts which are currently equipped. It was then stored inside and unridden.”
The odometer shows zero miles. However, true mileage is unknown.
