2012 Kawasaki KLX250S Review
Built for both on-and off-road use, the light and nimble KLX250S is an ideal ride for dual-sporting fun. The rigors of off-road motorcycling dictate additional protection for the exposed underside of the machine, so the KLX250S comes standard with an aluminum engine guard to protect its crankcase during off-road adventures. Negotiating tight terrain also highlights another off-road reality – heat. The 43mm inverted cartridge-style front fork features 16-way adjustable compression damping and 10.0-inches of travel. Strong, 4mm-thick spokes in the 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels provide excellent rigidity for enhanced off-road durability. The KLX250S also stops hard, thanks to twin-piston calipers squeezing a 250mm semi-floating petal-shaped disc up front and a 240mm petal-shaped disc at the rear.
The latest and greatest KLX250S features unbelievable off road performance and real KLX heritage making it an awesome on or off road machine.
