Rider Profile

Best For	This is a peaky two-stroke sportbike best suited to experienced riders who understand how to manage a narrow powerband and aggressive engine character.
Purpose	Built purely for high-revving sport riding and canyon carving rather than commuting or long-distance travel.
Rider Fit	Its light dry weight and compact dimensions make it easy to muscle around, but the low clip-ons and rearset pegs demand a fit, flexible rider for extended stints.
Character	A raspy, lightweight 250cc two-stroke twin that rewards aggressive riding with razor-sharp handling and explosive top-end acceleration.
Not Ideal For	Not a good choice for beginners, tall or heavy riders, passengers, or anyone wanting a comfortable, low-maintenance daily or touring machine.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 755mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 1992 Kawasaki KR1-S, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
