2010 Kawasaki KLX 140 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2010 Kawasaki KLX 140 enduro - offroad motorcycle, Kawasaki utilizes a 144 cc (8.8 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 58.0 x 54.4 mm (2.3 x 2.1 inches) with a 9.5:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the KLX 140 measures 93 kg (205 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,260 mm (49.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5.67-liter (1.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
