KLX250SF




THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS


Based on Kawasaki's critically acclaimed dual purpose on/offroad KLX250S, the SF dials up maximum on-road fun with sticky street radials mounted on 17-inch wheels, a shorter seat height, a bit less suspension travel and a big front brake.
It's "just" a 250 but its light weight of just 137kg (curb weight) means the KLX250SF packs the sort of performance you'd expect from something bigger and more expensive. Few motorcycles - of any size or price - are capable of out-cornering it. 

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
All-Digital Instrumentation
New blue backlit LCD digital instrument panel features easy-to-read speedometer and tachometer, tripmeter, water temperature warning light and a series of indicator lights.>

Serious Suspension
16-way adjustable 43mm upside down cartridge forks combined with the Uni-Trak® mono-shock rear suspension provide superb road-holding while the shorter stroke helps keep the seat height low.

    Colour Coded Supermotard Rims
    The wide 17 inch front and rear blue colour coded supermotard rims mated with sticky street radials provide outstanding cornering ability while looking the goods as well.
Relaxed Seating Position
The relaxed position makes the bike easier to ride and control. The footpegs are positioned close to the bike’s centreline for a slim riding position and the narrow fuel tank contributes to the comfortable riding position..

Massive Front Petal Disc Brake
Twin piston front callipers grasps a massive 300mm semi-floating front petal disc for incredible stopping power while up back a single piston caliper and a large 240mm petal disc enhance braking performance.
Smooth Power
The compact 249cc, liquid-cooled, four-stroke, single-cylinder engine features a four-valve, dual overhead cam head atop an electrofusion coated aluminium cylinder producing impressive power and torque delivering smooth, tractable acceleration.

Easy Electric Starting
Enjoy easy, trouble-free starting thanks to a reliable, electric starter facilitated by Kawasaki Automatic Compression Release (KACR), which automatically opens an exhaust valve to lower compression and enable easy cranking.
Precision Handling
The KLX250SF’s box and tubular section high tensile steel perimeter frame creates a slim, lightweight package. The 25.5° caster angle and short wheelbase contribute to quick handling, while the high rigidity of the frame ensures straight line stability.
