Kawasaki KLX230 S Overview
The KLX230 S is aimed at riders who want an adventure-style bike with a setup that can handle rougher routes as well as everyday use. Its 21-inch front and 18-inch rear spoke wheels, 255mm ground clearance and 139kg kerb weight point to that focus. The 830mm seat is 50mm lower than the regular KLX230’s, though it may still feel tall for shorter riders. Its 7.5-litre tank is modest, and the claimed mileage is 36kmpl.
The six-speed gearbox and turn-by-turn navigation add useful versatility, while single-channel ABS is a braking-safety compromise. Against the Yezdi Adventure, the KLX230 S is lighter and has better claimed mileage, but makes less power. It is also lighter and has a lower seat than the Suzuki V-Strom SX, though it makes less power and is priced above it. It is priced below the Himalayan 440 and at about the same level as the regular KLX230.
