Features may include:

• DELIVER THE EXCITEMENT

The KLX®300SM ultimate lightweight supermoto motorcycle is powered by a 292cc, fuel-injected, liquid-cooled engine. Experience a rewarding spread of power across the rev range. Smooth power delivery and crisp throttle response helps riders of all skill levels maneuver through stop-and-go city traffic, navigate country back roads, or experience the exhilaration of supermoto racing at their local track. Electric start offers easy starting; fuel injection helps with reliable starting in a wide range of conditions and contributes to improved fuel economy.

• TAKE THE FUN TO THE STREETS

The KLX®300SM motorcycle is built with a slim, lightweight perimeter frame that’s maneuverable but rigid at higher speeds to help with straight-line stability. With the smaller front wheel, the caster angle (25°) and short wheelbase contribute to quick handling. Suspension performance offers 9.1 inches of travel up front and 8.1 inches in the rear, ideal for supermoto riding. The 43mm inverted cartridge-style front fork has adjustable compression damping to optimize fork performance for conditions and personal preference. The Uni-Trak® rear suspension offers bump absorption and rebound damping adjustability, and fully adjustable preload, allowing riders to tailor shock settings to personal preference. Substantial braking power comes thanks to a large 300mm semi-floating petal disc and twin-piston caliper up front and a 240mm petal rear disc and single-piston caliper. Agile supermoto performance is further enabled with 17-inch wheels and road tires contributing to better handling on the street.

• MAKE COMFORT A PRIORITY

An upright and relaxed riding position makes it comfortable to ride the KLX®300SM motorcycle. Rider-friendly ergonomics are complemented by a thick-padded seat, rubber dampened footpegs, and a 33.9-inch seat height that allows riders to comfortably reach the ground at stops which increases confidence. The innovative radiator fan directs hot air down and away from the rider and from high touch areas for added comfort in traffic.

• ALL ATTITUDE. NO APOLOGIES.

The aggressive supermoto-inspired bodywork on the race-inspired KLX®300SM motorcycle delivers performance and attitude. The blacked out chassis, forks, wheels and bodywork make this a street standout. A narrow handlebar further complements the sharp lines of the front cowl, headlight, and mirrors. From the cockpit, all-digital instrumentation is on display, including a digital speedometer, bar-type tachometer, clock, odometer, dual trip meters, and a range of warning/indicator lamps.
