Kawasaki has updated the entire off-road KLX lineup for 2024 with new styling. The KLX300R, KLX230R, KLX140R, and KLX110R receive new colors and graphics to match the KX competition line. Additionally, Kawasaki updated its 300 dual sports, the KLX300 and KLX300SM with new colors and graphics as well as granting both models with an updated LED headlight.

2024 Kawasaki KLX300R ($6,199)

The 2024 Kawasaki KLX300R is the flagship model in the KLX off-road lineup. Based on the dual sport variant, the KLX300R is essentially a stripped-down version of the KLX300. Utilizing the same 292cc fuel-injected DOHC liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, semi-double-cradle frame, 43mm inverted telescopic fork, and Uni-Trak shock, both models share a nearly identical specs sheet.

Additionally, the 2024 Kawasaki KLX300R features full-size off-road wheels (21-inch front, 18-inch rear), a six-speed transmission, and adjustable ergonomics. For 2024 the updated appearance of the KLX300R is available in Lime Green or Battle Gray.

2024 Kawasaki KLX230R ($5,049)

The 2024 Kawasaki KLX230R is Team Green’s largest air-cooled off-road KLX. As seen in other KLX models, the 230R is the stripped-down off-road version of the KLX230 dual sport. Fitted with the same 233cc fuel-injected SOHC single-cylinder engine, six-speed transmission, 32mm Keihin throttle body, and high-tensile-steel box-section perimeter frame, both KLX230 models share many of the same parts.

As an off-road-only model, the 2024 Kawasaki KLX230R sports additional suspension travel over its dual sport sibling. Utilizing a 37mm telescopic fork offering 9.8 inches of travel plus Uni-Trak linkage and monoshock with 9.9 inches of suspension travel, the KLX230R has a seat height of 36.4 inches while the dual sport variety sits closer to the ground with a 34.8-inch seat height. Fitted with 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels, the KLX230R sports a full-size stance and opens the door to a wide range of tire options.

Both KLX230 and KLX230R come in “S” variants (shorter seat height) for 2023, but have not been released as 2024 models. Currently only the KLX230R has received updated styling and colors for 2024, with the 2024 Kawasaki KLX230R available in Lime Green or Battle Gray.

2024 Kawasaki KLX140R ($3,649), KLX140R L ($3,949), KLX140R F ($4,249)

Kawasaki offers the 2024 KLX140R in three variants. All three KLX140R models utilize the same 144cc SOHC air-cooled single-cylinder engine fed by a 20mm Keihin carburetor and five-speed transmission. The chassis is identical across the model range with a high-tensile-steel box-section perimeter frame, 1.5-gallon fuel tank, 220mm front disc with dual-piston caliper, and 186mm rear disc with single-piston caliper.

2024 Kawasaki KLX140R F ($4,249)

The KLX140R F is the largest of the three KLX140 models. Featuring full-size off-road wheels, the 2024 Kawasaki KLX140R F bridges the gap between the smaller KLX140 models and the more powerful KLX230R models. Fitted with 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels, the KLX140R F has a 33.9-inch seat height, 12.4 inches of ground clearance, and increased suspension travel. The 33mm telescopic fork offers 7.5 inches of travel while the Uni-Trak linkage and shock with 20-way-adjustable rebound damping and threaded preload adjustability provide 7.9 inches of travel. The 2024 Kawasaki KLX140R F is available in Lime Green and Battle Gray.

Completing Kawasaki’s off-road KLX lineup are the 2024 KLX110R and KLX110R L. Both models feature the same 112cc SOHC air-cooled engine fed by an 18mm Keihin carburetor with a screw-type throttle limiter. Many of the chassis components are shared across both models, such as a 1.0-gallon fuel tank, 42.3-inch wheelbase, drum brakes, suspension components, and 14-inch/12-inch wheel sizes.
