[Test Ride Review] “KLX125” is Back!! -Genuine 125 to Enjoy Off-Road Freely - KLX125

KLX125 is the one to be specialized in off-road ride by using the same power unit as D- tracker/KLX250.

The biggest difference is that KLX wears 19-inch front and 16-inch rear off-road tires, whereas D-tracker wears 14-inch front/rear on-road tires. KLX also has the designated upright fork, and the suspension stroke was changed from 150 for D-Tracker to 175.

It features simply designed air-cooled 4 stroke single cylinder engine as same as D-tracker, and The number of the teach of driven sprocket is increased by 3, whereas D-tracker has 44 teeth. This final ratio will help you have a better jump start.

Also, the body work is all reconsidered and all numeric data for the caster, the trail, the handle steering angles (Left and Right), the wheel base, the minimum ground clearance and the seat height are all set exclusively for KLX.

It has been such a long time since 125cc class had an off-road model with 4 stroke. The creation of KLX will bring back the fun not just of riding in the city or touring but also of off-road touring and mini-motocross back to us as well. Dirt bikes will tell us the origin of the fun we can have through motorcycles!!

KLX_06 [Test Ride Review] “KLX125” is Back!! -Genuine 125 to Enjoy Off-Road Freely - KLX 06

Comparing to D-tracker 125, KLX125 has less ground touchability due to the seat height. However, this is something I come up with if told I had to do so. I bet many people would not think anything of it. How you position your self on it will make you fell like going for a ride freely.
