The 2012 Kawasaki KX250F boasts revised pistons and a new, lighter throttle body which adds a dramatic thrill to revving up the engine: with the body opening quick after 3/8 throttle, the rider should expect an explosion of power and torque, perfect for fast acceleration or for that sought-after mid-turn brawn. The KX FI Calibration Kit provides custom mappings to transform the 2012 Kawasaki KX250F into a racing machine that's especially adapted to each rider preferences and style.
The separate function Showa fork has been finely tuned: with damping for the left leg and spring for the right one, the new front suspension delivers a smooth, firm action that's hard to reproduce in conventional forks, perfectly matching the fully-adjustable rear shock.
