<\/p>\nThe KLX250 motorcycle is built to take riders to new places. Borrowing notes from the KX line and Kawasaki\u2019s racing heritage, this 2018 street
\nlegal, dual-purpose motorcycle is designed to cut through the busy traffic of an inner city or climb up a back trail to see the city from a beautiful view. The long awaited return of one of Kawasaki\u2019s most versatile motorcycles, the 2018 KLX250.<\/p>\n

The 2018 KLX250 motorcycle receives a new fuel injection system for improved starting at all elevations, fuel efficiency and performance. The KLX250 motorcycle is the ideal platform for riders seeking a less expensive, lightweight dual purpose motorcycle that is capable off-road.<\/p>\n

Upon first glance you\u2019ll notice the aggressive front cowl, front fender and two-bulb headlamp design. A sharp taillight further contributes to the aggressive styling. Taking cues from the KX family, the KLX250 motorcycle features two-piece radiator shrouds and KX-style fork guards, which help protect the inner tubes from rocks and brush. An all-digital instrument console gives the rider at-a-glance information. Features include a digital bargraph ENGINE<\/strong><\/p>\n \uf0b7 New Fuel Injection (FI) system<\/p>\n \uf0b7 Stainless-steel exhaust system<\/p>\n The engine of the KLX250 motorcycle is a modern, lightweight and compact, 250cc liquid-cooled DOHC engine with a wide torque band, pulling from down low. The new KLX250 features a new fuel injection system, for improved fuel efficiently, improved starting in a variety of conditions and better performance and throttle response. The FI system utilizes an ultra-fine atomizing (10-hole) injector. The result is a very smooth engine character, especially in the rpm range most used in day-to-day riding.<\/p>\n With an electric starter and Kawasaki Automatic Compression Release (KACR), which automatically lifts an exhaust valve during engine cranking, starting the KLX250 is a breeze. Precise control of ignition timing by the digital CDI also contributes to easy starts and reliability under extreme conditions.<\/p>\n The engine has low reciprocating weight, thanks in part to the use of a cam lobe for each valve, with shim-under tappet arrangement, which also contributes to better efficiency during high rpm. A lightweight piston, piston pin and connecting rod allow power-producing revs. With a bore and stroke of 72.0 x 61.2mm, the engine displaces 249cc. The engine is mounted low in the frame, contributing to a low center of gravity. Flat-top piston and pent-roof combustion chamber deliver a 11.0:1 compression ratio.<\/p>\n The engine of the KLX250 engine features an electro-fusion cylinder, which is an ultra-hard coating that offers superior heat transfer and less weight. It also contributes to engine reliability: the coating holds lubrication well, resists abrasion and seizure, and allows a tight piston-to-cylinder clearance for increased horsepower.<\/p>\n Its smooth engine is due in part to a gear-driven engine balancer, providing smooth power delivery from Gear ratios facilitate smooth shifting through the rpm range and help with increased performance off-road CHASSIS & SUSPENSION<\/strong><\/p>\n \uf0b7 Fully adjustable suspension<\/p>\n \uf0b7 43 mm inverted cartridge fork<\/p>\n \uf0b7 Gas-charged rear shock<\/p>\n \uf0b7 Front wheel travel of 255mm and rear travel of 230mm<\/p>\n \uf0b7 285mm ground clearance The box- and tubular-section high-tensile steel perimeter frame of the KLX250 motorcycle creates a slim,<\/p>\n lightweight package, which offers both great cornering performance and straight-line stability.
