KAWASAKI KLX140R 2023

KAWASAKI KLX140R 2023 OFF-ROAD LIKE NEVER BEFORE

Featuring confident handling, Kawasaki KLX140R  2023 motorcycles are the perfect entry into off-road riding. The easy-to-ride KLX140R lineup offers a 144cc engine, plush suspension, and push-button electric start, making for great trailblazers.

Confident Handling

A lightweight box-section perimeter frame from high-tensile steel provides exceptional rigidity and strength. The narrow profile contributes to an easier grip and smoother movement on the bike. Working together, the suspension and lightweight chassis deliver the handling that exudes confidence.

The Kawasaki KLX140R  2023 trail bike features larger wheels (19F, 16R), taller seat height (800 mm), and higher 255mm ground clearance, while the KLX140R F trail bike features full-size wheels (21F, 18R) and 315mm ground clearance.

Smooth Power

The high-revving, 144cc, air-cooled SOHC 4-stroke engine easily starts with the push of a button. Air-cooling eliminates the need for radiators, keeping the chassis slim and lightweight while a 5-speed transmission with manual clutch delivers smooth shifting and acceleration.

Braking

Front and rear disc brakes provide strong progressive stopping power. The 220mm front petal disc with a dual-piston caliper is complemented by a 186mm* rear petal disc with a single-piston caliper, inspiring confidence on the trails.

FINGER FOLLOWERS

The engine with finger-follower valve actuation boasts an increase in peak power of approximately 2.5 kW (3.4 PS) from the previous generation, while a flatter torque curve makes it easier to get on the gas.

Finger-follower valve actuation enables a higher rev limit and more aggressive cams for harder-hitting power.

ADJUSTABLE FOOTPEGS

Adjustable footpeg mountings enable riders to lower their footpeg position by 5 mm. In the bottom position, the centre of gravity is lowered as is the rider’s eye line, providing both physical and psychological advantages.

COIL-SPRING FORK

Handling suspension duties up front is a Kashima coated high-performance Ø 49 mm inverted coil-spring fork by SHOWA. The large-diameter inner tubes (the same size as on our factory racers) enable the use of large damping pistons, delivering smooth action and firm damping.

WINNING ENGINE

Powerful, high-revving 249 cm3 liquid-cooled, 4-stroke Single with factory-racer engine tuning. Boasting an increase in peak power of approximately 2.4 kW (3.3 PS) and stronger high RPM performance.

Kawasaki motorcycles possess both power and grace so are often recognised as being different to other bikes. This results from certain guiding principles adopted at the design stage. Rideology is Kawasaki’s rider-centric development philosophy focused on how the riding experience offered by a Kawasaki is crafted, ensuring that our machines are fun to ride and rewarding to control. This approach has been the force behind many of our legendary machines, and in our pursuit of all possibilities it will continue to guide the future creation of Kawasaki motorcycles.

To compete, to race, to win - that is the ambition of every motocross rider, right up to those talented individuals who dominate their chosen racing class to reach the pinnacle of success.
