The 2012 MY Kawasaki KLX250S is a bike designed to combine the best of two worlds. Whether one is commuting to and from work or wants to enjoy a weekend off-road trail, the KLX250S can do both jobs.
A single-cylinder 249cc DOHC engine has a broad torque curve but is also lightweight and feels confident even at high revs, combined with the excellent adjustable Uni-Trak rear suspension and the 43 mm front fork make it good for off-roading.
Other features, such as the push-button electric start and the fully digital instrumentation enhance its everyday capabilities if one chooses to use it on his daily commute also.
