Bl**dy Hell - it appears to have worked.

KR-1S is at early days yet and still needs loads doing but have got it running fine. I will get it up to the same condition as my 916 but I've had 13 years to sort that one out!!!

Yes Luders had a variety of em for about the last 20 years - got two Ducs at the moment the 916 and a Sport 1000s.

I'm reliving my youth a bit by buying the KR as I always loved my old strokers, only had it a couple of months, but havin fun blasting around - could do with some drier and warmer black stuff though before I can experience the full fun :twisted: So much for a drought and global warming it aint round here :!:

Was originally going for a TZR but changed direction mid search after looking at a few basically cr*p TZR's and went for the KR-1S a good decision I think as at least you have a reasonable amount of power and some interesting handling :shock: .

I'm noy a Ducati fan, but I have to say the 916 is very close to being the best looking motorcycle ever.

Thats also a nice KR1S standing next to it.
