Kawasaki KLX230R S

Kawasaki KLX230R S Overview

The KLX230R S is most compelling for buyers who value a lightweight, trail-oriented setup over outright power or everyday convenience. Its 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels, 270mm ground clearance and adjustable rear suspension preload suit rougher terrain. At 129kg, it is the lightest among these listed rivals, but the 900mm seat is exceptionally tall and its 7.5-litre tank is the smallest in the group. A pillion seat, footrests and grab rail are provided.

Compared with the Hero Xpulse 210, the KLX is lighter and has more ground clearance, but makes less power and is priced above it. It is priced below the Apache RTX, which has substantially more power. The KLX’s appeal is therefore its low weight and ground clearance, rather than pace, fuel capacity or ease of reaching the ground.

• 129kg kerb weight makes it the lightest among these listed rivals.
• 270mm ground clearance gives more room beneath the bike on uneven ground.
• 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels suit its trail-oriented setup.
• Rear preload adjustment lets the suspension spring setting be changed.
• Front and rear disc brakes provide disc braking at both wheels.

Best for: Buy it if low weight and high ground clearance matter more to you than a low seat, greater power or a larger fuel tank.
