presentation of the KLX 125 2013
like many of its rivals, Kawasaki enjoyed its best years in the 125 segment with trail and off-road machines. This is the path chosen by the manufacturer for its return to this displacement. 2 small machines have been chosen to conquer the hearts of young people: a supermotor (the D-Tracker) for sporty urban riding; and a trail bike for adventuring here and there, or riding from town to country. The KLX 125 is equipped with spoked rims and nipple tires. The gussets on the fork tubes will bring back fond memories for some, and will also protect the tubes from mud and stones. Light and compact, the KLX can be ridden by anyone, thanks to its small footprint and easy, immediate handling. The choice of engine should keep the price down, but don't expect a violent mill. With fuel injection and the work of our engine designers, it will be clean, but the technology does not favor performance. A single-stroke, air-cooled 4-stroke will barely manage 10 horsepower. Let's console ourselves: it won't consume a dime, and in terms of reliability, it'll be much stronger than the old 2-strokes. The latter had a hell of a kick, and the noise of an angry wasp, but it's better not to think about them at all: indecent consumption and outrageous pollution have dictated their decline. The fact remains that this somewhat timid attempt will be hard pressed to upset the Yam WR 125, except on the price front.
