Positioned in Kawasaki's enduro - offroad motorcycle lineup, the 2025 Kawasaki Klx230Rs features a 233 cc engine configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 67.0 x 66.0 mm with a 9.4:1 compression ratio.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 875 mm (34.4 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 7.6-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
