Engineered by Kawasaki for the motorcycle segment, the 2025 Kawasaki Klr650 ABS utilizes a 652 cc engine layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 100.0 x 83.0 mm with a 9.8:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Klr650 ABS measures 209 kg (461 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 870 mm (34.3 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1 mm (0 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 23-liter (6.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
