CHAMPIONSHIP-PROVEN POWER
The lighter weight and increased power of the 2017 KX™250F motorcycle starts with a completely new engine. Get an inside look at the innovative design features.
Features may include:
ENGINEDowndraft intake design and more upright engine orientation with revised cylinder offset increase overall powerLighter weight race-team-inspired bridged-box bottom piston to optimize combustion efficiency and plateau cylinder honing to help reduce frictionINTAKESRear fender with under seat intake channels ensure clean airflowRevised airbox and intake duct for increased air volume resulting in more powerFUEL INJESTIONInnovative dual-injector system utilizes a downstream injector below the throttle valve, and a second upstream injector located near the airbox. Together, they contribute to more efficient filling of the cylinder to maximize powerMore upright engine orientation and repositioned intake duct allow for optional air the intake. The downdraft style routing improves cylinder-filing efficiency,contribution to increased engine power.New downdraft injector grows from four holes to eight for a wider fuel spray, delivering stronger low-to mid-range power for quicker accelerationLighter weight 43mm throttle body ensures sharp, responsive powerEXHUASTNew exhaust header with integrated resonator maximizes throttle response and enhances midrange powerNEW FRAME & BODYWORK
Slimmer, lighter aluminum perimeter frame contributes to razor sharp cornering and superior handling while a flatter seat and new bodywork allow easier rider movement.
NEW SLIMMER, LIGHTER FRAMENew aluminum perimeter frame is narrower and lighter for championship-winning agilityRevised overall balance improves front wheel traction for razor-sharp cornering abilityRadiators are rotated inward for narrower width between shrouds, allowing easier rider movementAGGRESSIVE BODYWORKNew bodywork is lighter weightFlatter tank and seat allow greater freedom of movementFuel tank has increased capacity, going from 1.6 to 1.7 gallonsFeatures Kawasaki’s first in-mold graphics that are more durableCLASS-LEADING ADJUSTABILITY
