2026 Kawasaki KLX110R: PLAYFUL AND VERSATILE.
Introducing the 2026 Kawasaki KLX110R…
The KLX110R comes in two variations, offering an excellent entry package for new riders eager to explore off-road. Built with a high-tensile steel frame, 30mm telescopic fork, and a single rear shock, the KLX110R ensures effortless handling and lasting durability. Featuring an automatic centrifugal clutch system, the KLX110R simplifies take-offs and gear shifts, enabling riders to focus on the terrain while maximizing the potential of the 112cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine. For those seeking a taller stance and enhanced capabilities, the KLX110R L model offers a taller seat height (28.7” compared to 26.8” for the KLX110R), increased suspension travel, an extra 1.9” of ground clearance, and a four-speed transmission with a manual clutch.
Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned rider, there’s a KLX motorcycle ready to fuel your Kawasaki-powered adventures.

Whether it’s a friendly bike for beginners or the ultimate pitbike for more experienced riders, the KLX110R and the slightly larger KLX110R L off-road motorcycles are up for the task. The playful 112cc engine and compact chassis are versatile enough to handle fun for any young rider.
