Kawasaki KLX 250 Review | Specifications KLX 250

Kawasaki KLX 250
Kawasaki KLX 250 Review | Specifications KLX 250

Kawasaki KLX250S is a dual sport that does everything well, and if you decide to add a few modifications that do everything very well!
The Engine

The KLX is powered by 249cc 4-Stroke, Liquid-Cooled motor with 6-speed transmission. This machine is suitable for beginners directly from the factory, this is mainly because the EPA has imposed restrictions that limit the potential. The good thing about the restrictions are very forgiving bike, you will also get 70 + miles per gallon out of this little monster. It's certainly no sneeze at!
The Thin Line

Some sports dual leaning more toward the side of the road than the side they inherited the land, this motor seems to be a welcome exception and tread the line between the two worlds very well. You can take several hours Twisties easily until you arrive at this bike path in which a tear in the mud, sand, and dirt and grime just motorcycles. Do not worry about dropping this motor too, nearly indestructible. It comes with aluminum engine guards to protect the engine house and party hard plastic to prevent dents or scratches that would jeopardize the work. Even if you dropped it in my truck would be more worried about trucks than motorcycles!
Modifications

As I said before this bike is great out of the factory door, especially if you are a new motorcycle rider. If after several months you want to try and squeeze more power from these small hard working you'd be surprised how you can drastically change the performance with just a few mods. The first thing I recommend is the market after a kind exhaust and rejetting carbohydrates. Emission standards to make the bike run lean from the factory, so once you have more fuel to the engine you will see a real increase in power. People seem to have really good experience when attaching an after market exhaust system muzzy this bike, it not only increases power, but voting will bring a smile to your face.
Conclusion

I really can not say things are pretty good about this bike, my first motorcycle ride is very similar to this bike and it was a blast to ride. This motor is suitable for new riders who are afraid to drop their bikes, or someone who wants to start small but still has a motorcycle that they can play with and enhance the strength of their skills. With the addition of 6 gear you can take this bike for short stints on the road without too much trouble, although it is more in the elements that the roads or the ground.
Pros

Running back from a very good factor for beginners.
This motor is a tank! No need to worry about dropping it.
Cons

Types of small gas tank, but fuel efficiency makes for it.
You'll spend more money on parts if you want to improve performance.
