MSRP excludes destination fees, optional accessories, applicable taxes, installation, setup and/or other dealer fees.Just like its smaller KLX110 dirtbike cousins, the robust KLX140 will tame the toughest off-road conditions while remaining flexible enough to maximize off-road adventure regardless of rider age or skill level. Its moderate 30.7 in. seat height means the KLX140 will easily fit shorter riders who are looking to ride a real dirtbike.

modifications to provide stable fuel delivery under rough off-road conditions Partitions in the float chamber keep the fuel from sloshing excessively, while an umbrella around the main jet traps fuel when riding on rough terrain or jumping Dual air vents help provide a stable fuel supply even when the bike is at extreme lean angles Needle valve is suspended on a spring, which acts like a shock absorber Float material is rubber instead of plasticClose-ratio five Gear transmission Close gear ratios help the acceleration performance of the KLX140 Shift lever features a ball bearing design for easy shifting like KX models, and has a folding tip for reduced crash damageProgressive manual clutch Manual clutch offers young riders the chance to master clutch engagement and gear shifting Spring damper in the clutch provides a 2-stage engagement that permits half-clutch use when riding at extremely low rpm or idling speeds, and helps provide better clutch feel and durabilityBox-section perimeter frame Ready for the off-road abuse, the highly rigid, KX-inspired high-tensile steel perimeter frame uses the same upper tubes as its older-brother, the KLX250S Aluminum swingarm is lightweight, strong and features a brushed finish just like the KX machines KX-style chain adjusters for ease of use and accurate chain adjustmentSuperior suspension 33mm telescoping fork has spring rates and damping settings specific to each model KLX140 rear shock features 5-way preload adjustability and a Uni-Trak linkage More advanced KLX140L rear shock and reservoir can be mounted on the

braking Rear brake uses a 186mm petal disc gripped by a 27mm single-piston caliper Rear brake master cylinder features a large-volume, unitized reservoir that contributes to stable braking and helps ensure sufficient fluid pressure, even when the brake pad wears down The wave shape of the petal discs help clean the brake pads for more efficient braking performance and reduce unsprung weightErgonomics Flat-shaped box-section of frame, long footpegs mounted close to the bike's centerline and no kick-start lever combine to offer riders better feel and control Footpeg/frame
