If you would delve further into the technical details, it would become obvious that there are some glitches in this bike. For instance, when you will have a test drive, you will witness that front suspension is not as great as it should be. Though rear suspension is good enough to handle high speed but front suspension will always create noise while moving your bike on a high speed.

Moreover, steering is way too quick for the liking of an average Joe. What it means is that you may have to face some problems while riding it for the first time. Head angle is another aspect where you may find things to be a bit complicated. Because of the steepness of this angle and hardness of forks, you may be compelled to say that it is not perfect for road use.

The problem of forks is about the availability of little compression which makes it hard to control your bike while riding your bike on bumps and rough roads. Apart from this, seating position may not be attractive and comfortable for many riders.

Now, you must be thinking up until now that buying a Kawasaki KR 1S is a waste of money but its not. The wonderful thing about this bike is the speed and power it generates on the road. It has a maximum power of 55 hp at 10500 rpm with maximum torque of 3.75 kg-m at 10500 rpm.

The fact of the matter is that Kawasaki KR 1S is a mixture of some good and some not so good features. Although it is hard to keep steering under control but once you get used to it then only few bikes can generate a power like it.
