The new and versatile 2013 MY Kawasaki KLX250S is a dual-purpose bike with all the credentials of both an off-road/ enduro and a small tourer.
Powered by a liquid-cooled 249cc single-cylinder engine mated to a six-speed transmission, it can provide fast acceleration for thrilling straight-line runs on the dirt track and well-mannered power deployment for strolling alongside forest trails or slow-traffic city roads.
The 43mm inverted front forks along with the Uni-Trak rear suspension provide excellent handling and comfort. The diamond high-tensile steel frame is rigid and was developed with no downtubes, enabling a lower engine placement, thus lowering the bike's center of gravity with enough ground clearance.
