The KLX300R is the ultimate high-performance trail bike for off-road thrills, bridging the world between a weekend play bike and a full race bike. As the leader of the KLX lineup, the KLX300R combines the best of both engine and chassis performance to create the ultimate lightweight, fun off-road machine.
Serious off-road fun starts with the fuel-injected 292 cc liquid-cooled four-stroke Single, delivering crisp response, quick-revving power and strong low-end torque. The KLX300R is built tough with an engine designed to withstand the rigours of hard trail riding.
Smooth-shifting six-speed transmission offers a gear for every situation. Short final gearing (50/14) complements the engine’s low- to mid-range focus, enabling riders to maintain momentum when navigating technical off-road trails.
The KLX300R is built for serious play and is equipped with long-travel suspension to confidently handle the rigors of aggressive off-road riding. A ø43 mm inverted front fork aides in stability and control even on rough terrain. The fork settings take advantage of the long travel, using a lower spring rate to allow damping to work over a wider stroke range. The rear Uni Trak single-shock system features preload adjustability along with adjustable compression and rebound damping to suit a wide variety of terrain, riders and preferences.
A lightweight perimeter frame offers optimised rigidity for stability at speed while the short wheelbase facilitates agile handling. High ground clearance allows riders to more easily clear technical terrain features, resulting in confident trail riding.
Strong disc brakes add even more confidence and control, with a twin-piston caliper gripping a semi-floating ø270 mm petal disc in the front and a single piston caliper slowing a ø240 mm petal disc in the rear.
Large-diameter wheels, measuring 21” at the front and 18” at the rear, efficiently overcome trail obstacles, greatly contributing to trail-riding performance.
