Engineered by Kawasaki for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2021 Kawasaki KLX300 relies on a 292 cc (17.8 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 78.0 x 61.2 mm (3.1 x 2.4 inches) with a 11.1:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the KLX300 measures 137 kg (302 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 894 mm (35.2 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,440 mm (56.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 7.57-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
