Heat Management
Kawasaki’s innovative radiator fan cover guides hot air down and away from the rider, contributing to rider comfort.
High-Performance 292 cm3 Engine
The 292 cm3 engine’s strong yet rider-friendly power delivery at low and mid-range rpm transitions smoothly to a powerful top-end. The engine is positioned low in the frame, contributing to a low centre of gravity.
Two Models. Two Kinds of Wheels.
The KLX300 and KLX300SM can most easily be distinguished by their wheels. The dual purpose KLX300 is fitted with a 21” front wheel and 18” rear, enabling great off-road potential.
Sharp, Flowing Design
A strategic use of black and coloured parts creates a coloured line that flows front head to tail through the middle of the bike, similar to Kawasaki’s KX motocross machines.
Long-Travel Suspension
An adjustable ø43 mm inverted cartridge-style front fork works with Uni Trak rear suspension equipped with adjustable damping and preload to deliver agile handling for exciting on- and off-road riding.
Slim LED Headlight
Compact LED headlight in a slim, sharp new front cowl offers remarkable brightness and a thin design reminiscent of a full-fledged enduro bike.
Lightweight Perimeter Frame
The box- and tubular-section high-tensile steel perimeter frame creates a slim, lightweight package. The lightweight, highly rigid aluminium D-section swingarm contributes to low unsprung weight.
Digital Instrumentation
All-digital instrumentation includes digital speedometer, bar-type tachometer, clock, odometer, dual trip meters, and a range of warning/indicator lamps.
Comfortable Ergonomics
A relaxed, upright riding position is complemented by a thick urethane seat for comfort on longer rides, while a comfortable reach to the ground adds to rider confidence. New shroud design allows smoother transitions when shifting position, enabling riders to feel more at one with their machine when cornering.
