Kramer's foray into production of off-road motorcycles began in approximately 1975. First produced with Maico engines, a change to Rotax engine power in 1977 improved both racing success and sales. Manufacture of these interesting motorcycles ceased in 1980. This machine is one of the Rotax-engined examples, and features a duplex twin-tube cradle frame and triangulated cantilever rear suspension with twin shock absorbers. The front forks are equipped with a leading-axle front wheel and gold anodised rims feature front and rear. The Rotax engine has magnesium alloy covers, and lightweight petrol tank and body panels are fitted.

Added to the collection approximately 11 years ago, the Kramer is believed to be substantially original. It will require some re-commissioning prior to further use. Whilst the engine turns over, its mechanical condition is unknown. There are no documents present, and it is sold strictly as viewed.
