Enduro riders who value true four-stroke off-road performance choose the KLX450R. Power, performance and control over the whole distance plus electric start and performance components combine to deliver a fast and usable total package built for the enduro adventure.
The KLX450R is Kawasaki’s capable big-bore 4 stroke off-road Enduro model. Easy to handle, rider friendly, ADR Compliant, and learner legal.
This trail explorer, enduro racing KX derived motorcycle has stump-pulling low down torque. Electric start and performance components combine to deliver a fast and usable total package built for the off-road.
The KLX450R’s gear ratios have been selected to specifically suit off-road competition. The engine is tuned for a broad delivery of power to optimize the gear ratios. The gear sets and center cases are very compact allowing the frame to be narrower at the rider‘s ankles. Great, grippy footpegs are standard and ready to race.
Kayaba twin chamber forks take care of the big hits up front while Kawasaki’s legendary Uni-Trak rear suspension gets the power to the ground. Fully adjustable damping at both ends provides easy tuning and setup. The high-performance race-spec KYB AOSS 48mm inverted front fork and superb rear suspension have been tuned for off-road competition and to minimise rider fatigue over long distances.
The new Uni-Trak suspension offers adjustable dual-range (high/low-speed) compression damping, adjustable rebound damping, and adjustable spring preload.
Petal brake discs front and rear reduce unsprung weight, and help clean the brake pads for more efficient braking. The forged aluminium rear brake pedal has a heavy duty mounting bolt and a large “foot” with sharp teeth to provide a solid feel. An integrated rear brake fluid reservoir provides increased reliability.
Fully equipped for off road competition the KLX450R instrument panel lets the rider see what the bike is doing….right now. This lightweight digital instrumentation includes a speedometer, twin tripmeters, odometer and clock.
