Description

Motorcycle companies aren’t normally owned by engineers, but maybe they should be. Joe Karvonen is the owner of Krämer Motorcycles U.S.A. and he’s an engineer who learned his trade at the Motorcycle Mechanics Institute. He’s also a club racer and a track-day rider. A perfect fit for a company that manufactures track-day and race bikes, including the purpose-built Krämer APX-350 MA that is being raced in MotoAmerica’s new Parts Unlimited By Motul Talent Cup. We caught up with Karvonen at the recent Road America round to talk about Krämer, the Talent Cup, and much more on this week’s episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.
