When you ride KX™ motorcycles, you ride in the company of legends. Be the next moto prodigy. Be the next hero. Be the next champion. Be the next legend. Be the next trailblazer for an entire generation of greatness. Introducing the new 2020 KX™250. You’re up next.
MORE POWERFUL ENGINE
The new 249cc liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine features a new finger-follower valve train, a new bridged-box-bottom piston, a shorter stroke and a wider bore. The KX™250 motorcycle builds up stunning high-rpm power with a higher compression ratio, more aggressive cams, larger intake/exhaust valves and revised exhaust system.
UPGRADED SUSPENSION
A new 48mm KYB coil-spring fork offers smoother action while the new Uni-Trak® rear suspension link and KYB shock with dual compression adjustability helps soak up whatever the track throws your way.
STRONGER BRAKES
High-rpm power calls for superior stopping power. In the front, an oversized 270mm Braking® petal disc and dual-piston caliper with upgraded brake pad materials offer improved feel for increased braking performance. In the rear, a new larger-diameter 250mm Braking petal disc and new lighter-weight master cylinder deliver stronger stopping power.
MORE AGILE CHASSIS
Lightweight balance is the focus of the KX™250 motorcycle’s slim aluminum perimeter frame—revised rigidity helps ensure smoother rear shock performance and optimum traction while Kawasaki class-leading ERGO-FIT® adjustability allows you to find your optimal fit and comfort with four-way adjustable handlebar positions and two footpeg positions to choose from.
