2002 KAWASAKI KLR250
The Kawasaki KLR250 dual-purpose motorcycle is
designed with variety in mind. On city streets, it's comfortable
and capable. And when riders venture off the pavement, the bike's
long-travel suspension and ample ground clearance more than
accommodate the unexplored paths.
Powering this do-it-all motorcycle is a
four-stroke, single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with dual
overhead cams operating four valves for superior performance.
Double engine counterbalancers keep the powerplant running smoothly
from idle to redline, and an automatic cam chain tensioner keeps
engine cam timing spot-on without maintenance. The KLR250's frame is made of the same high-tech,
high-tensile steel used in Kawasaki's KX motocrossers. A
detachable, lightweight aluminum rear sub-frame simplifies
maintenance by providing access to the airbox, carburetor and rear
shock. For bump absorption, the KLR250 has
more than nine inches of travel at both ends via an air adjustable
front fork and Kawasaki's UNI-TRAK® rear suspension system.
The latter features adjustable spring preload and rebound damping.
Helping to maintain good traction on pavement or dirt roads, the
KLR250's wheels are shod with universal tires, while a single front
disc brake and rear drum brake help to ensure stops.
