Overview
The Kawasaki KLX 250 CAMO is a dual-sport motorcycle from the KLX family, produced for 2018–2019. The 2019 model uses a 249.0 cm³ liquid-cooled, fuel-injected four-stroke single producing 21 hp (16 kW) and 20.5 Nm of torque at 7000 RPM; wet weight is 138.0 kg.
Its 890 mm seat height can make getting both feet firmly down difficult for shorter riders, while 285 mm of ground clearance helps it clear obstacles. The 255 mm front and 230 mm rear wheel travel suit rough surfaces, and the fork and rear shock offer extensive damping and preload adjustment. The 7.70-liter tank keeps fuel capacity limited, and the chain final drive needs periodic cleaning and adjustment.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Long suspension travel
With 255 mm of front travel and 230 mm at the rear, the suspension has room to absorb rough terrain.
Adjustable rear suspension
Compression and rebound damping are adjustable, and spring preload is fully adjustable, allowing the rear suspension to be tuned for rider and terrain.
High ground clearance
The 285 mm clearance helps the bike pass over obstacles without them contacting the underside as easily.
Things to consider
Tall seat
The 890 mm seat height can make confident footing difficult for shorter riders.
Limited fuel capacity
The 7.70-liter tank carries a limited amount of fuel between stops.
Chain maintenance
The chain final drive needs regular cleaning and adjustment.
