About KSR
Country of Origin:

Founder:
KSR Group (Christian & Michael Kirschenhofer)
Best Known For:
Curated small/mid-displacement bikes and scooters for Europe (e.g., KSR Moto)
Company History
KSR Group is an Austrian distributor-manufacturer that curates value-oriented motorcycles and scooters for Europe under house badges (like KSR Moto) and partner brands. The model blends global manufacturing with EU compliance and local support: proven engines and frames are specified with ABS/CBS, lighting, and emissions equipment, then backed by dealer networks and parts logistics across the continent. For riders, that means approachable 50–300 cc machines—learner-legal commuters, light adventure bikes, and sporty 125s—that start in winter, pass inspections, and are cheap to keep. KSR also incubates styling and ergonomics out of European design studios, so budget bikes look and feel current. Historically, KSR exemplifies the modern distributor-OEM: not a single factory marque, but an ecosystem that makes credible, affordable two-wheel transport possible at scale. By focusing on documentation and spares, KSR turns accessible prices into genuinely low total cost of ownership.
