The new 2024 Kawasaki KLX140R Dirt Bike is available in three models and is designed to deliver an off-road experience that lasts a lifetime. The powerful 144 cc, four-stroke, single-cylinder air-cooled engine comes with an electric starter and keyless ignition.

The new 2024 Kawasaki KLX140R Dirt Bike comes with a rear shock with 5-way adjustable preload. Since the 2024 Kawasaki KLX140R Dirt Bike is likely to be ridden harder on rough, tough terrain, the rear shock contains a piggyback reservoir, threaded preload, Four-way compression, and 22-way rebound damping adjustments. Both the shock body and reservoir are aluminium. The upgraded shock can be fitted to the new 2024 Kawasaki KLX140R Dirt Bike.
Petal Disc Brakes
Unlike most play-bikes with disc/drum combination brakes, the new 2024 Kawasaki KLX140R Dirt Bike features disc brakes on both wheels for a higher level of brake performance. Furthermore, the new petal disc design helps reduce overall unsprung weight, while the wave shape helps clean the brake pads and increase cooling efficiency for improved braking performance.
Race-Inspired Ergonomics
The new 2024 Kawasaki KLX140R Dirt Bike comes with rubber-mounted handlebar clamps that help reduce vibration transmitted to the rider’s hands. The new handlebar clamps are separate from the upper triple clamp, making it extremely easy to install aftermarket handlebars.
