2006 Kawasaki KLX125L
While the KLX™125 is an excellent starter bike for many youth and adult beginners, other riders would like to have a motorcycle that’s a little taller in the inseam.
The KLX125L off-road motorcycle is just the ticket for them, because it adds a larger 19-inch front wheel and 16-inch rear wheel, plus a powerful front disc brake to the KLX125 chassis.
Powered by a torquey and responsive air-cooled 125cc four-stroke single, the KLX125L pumps out plenty of rider-friendly power for off-road fun. The engine is specially tuned for low and mid-range power, and a smooth shifting five-speed transmission means there’s a gear for every riding situation. A cable-operated manual clutch, along with a digital CD ignition for quick starts, makes this quiet-running motorcycle reliable and easy to operate.
A high-tensile steel frame with a rigid carbon-steel swingarm add to the machine’s durability and lightweight handling characteristics, while bumps are soaked up by a long-travel front fork and linkage-equipped single-shock rear suspension system. The combination of a shorter wheelbase and a very comfortable riding position makes the KLX125L fun to ride on a variety of terrain.
Inspired by Kawasaki’s racy KX™ models, the fuel tank, slim seat and number plates give the bike an exciting look, while the classic lime green plastic gives it a true Kawasaki identity.
