Racy styling inspired by KX motocross machines gives the bike aggressive, sporty looks that reflect its off-road potential. Sharper and more stylish with enhanced equipment, the KLX150 looks like a full-fledged enduro bike.
The simple, air-cooled single-cylinder engine offers an easy-to-use and highly reliable power plant. Short gearing results in engine performance focused on the low-mid range, ensuring the strong low-end torque ideal for tackling tough off-road situations. And with electric start, starting is as easy as a quick push of the button.
The high rigidity, compact size and light weight of the steel perimeter frame offer excellent handling qualities and contribute to easy manoeuvrability.
