Kawasaki presents us with several revamped models, but also new and interesting products.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Return of The Venerable KLR650 2022″ font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_single_image image=”16343″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Absent from the dual-purpose motorcycle line-up since 2018, the KLR650 has been missed by adventurers. This legendary, reliable and efficient motorcycle is making a comeback with new technology and notable improvements.<\/strong> Kawasaki engineers have focused on the importance of comfort and capacity for long trips.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16344″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]The single-cylinder now has a fuel injection system that, combined with the large fuel tank (23 L), provides greater range.<\/p>\n

An all-new bodywork, a different geometry and a longer wheelbase provide enhanced stability<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16345″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]A higher windshield offers two adjustment positions. The aluminum rear luggage rack is larger than before.<\/p>\n

Special attention has been paid to all contact points to reduce vibration.<\/p>\n

A generator with a larger capacity allows the power supply of various accessories and electronic devices. The LCD digital dashboard has also undergone positive changes.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16346″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]The 5-speed gearbox has been improved.<\/p>\n

The KLR650 is available in Standard or Adventure models. \u00a0More options are available: saddlebags, ABS brakes, fog lights, frame and tank guards, as well as USB and DC plugs.<\/p>\n

The KLR650 2022 offers adventure, freedom and independence!<\/p>\n

Kawasaki is moving forward with this aggressive and modern version, straight out of the factory, that will be a real eye-catcher.<\/p>\n

Agile and lightweight, the KLX300SM offers fun on the track as well as in the city. Here are a few interesting features to know.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16351″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]The positioning of the single-cylinder, 4-stroke, liquid-cooled engine offers a very low center of gravity for improved handling<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The thin, lightweight frame also promotes handling. The riding position is optimal<\/strong>\u00a0thanks to the appropriate location of the footrests, handlebars and seat: this provides adequate comfort for the rider.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16353″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]The fully adjustable, inverted front fork and rear shock are comparable to the technologies of the KX off-road versions.<\/p>\n

The KLX300SM is equipped with 17-inch black, aggressive-looking front and rear wheels.<\/p>\n

Dual-piston brakes on the floating disc in the front and single-piston brakes in the rear provide outstanding performance.<\/p>\n

Radiators and an efficient fan are designed to direct hot air away from the driver.<\/p>\n

The digital dashboard is easy to quickly glance at.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16352″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Fun, ease and pleasure are to be expected during your rides with this promising KLX300SM 2021!<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”In the Big Leagues With The Two New KX Enduro 2021 Models” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_single_image image=”16357″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”16358″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]The KX models are a constant on competition podiums, and certainly don’t need an introduction. Kawasaki has designed an all-new version for off-road competition based on its winning and proven motocross technology.<\/p>\n

You’ll be ready for any off-road conditions with two new models that Kawasaki is introducing: the 2021 KX250X and the KX450X.<\/p>\n

The difference\u00a0between the two models is obviously the engine capacity, whereas all other main features are the same.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16359″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]KX enthusiasts will now happily benefit from the electric starter (also available on motocross versions).<\/p>\n

The clutch is now hydraulic. Kawasaki now uses a Belleville spring washer instead of traditional springs, which offers a more direct feel. But even more appreciable is the lightness felt on the clutch lever, which can now be handled with greater ease and flexibility than ever.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16355″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”16356″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Just like on the KX models, there are 3 DFI couplers, allowing the rider to quickly change the injection mapping in order to adjust the motorcycle’s response at low, medium and high rpm.<\/p>\n

Launch Control provides the rider with an efficient race start. The system delays the ignition when activated in 1st and 2nd gears to promote traction on the ground, similar to traction control.<\/p>\n

The 18″ rear tire is an enduro-type tire.<\/p>\n

Both small and large riders will find comfort with the KX range: the adjustable handlebar has 4 positions, and the footrests can be placed at two different heights.<\/p>\n

Complementary to the KX model, the enduro version has an engine block protection plate and a side stand.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”16360″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]It comes as no surprise that there is plenty of praise for the KX models. Their special features are numerous, impressive and effective.<\/p>\n

Kawasaki motorcycles are known for their competitive pricing, performance and reliability. Think very seriously about the Kawasaki line-up when you make your next purchase.<\/p>\n
