2012 Kawasaki KLX 250 specifications, pictures, reviews and rating

Kawasaki's profilation of this bike
Lower seat height (due to the suspension’s reduced stroke) makes it easier for riders to reach the ground with their feet, for added confidence when stopped. A revised handlebar is straighter and moves the hand position up and in.
