Kawasaki KX 250
2022
2022
The 2022 Kawasaki KX250 continues the legacy of a motocross machine designed for competition. Building upon years of development and refinement, this model aims to provide aspiring racers and seasoned riders alike with a competitive edge. The KX250 finds itself in a fiercely contested class, directly competing with models like the Yamaha YZ250F and Honda CRF250R.
At the heart of the 2022 KX250 lies a 249.0 ccm (15.19 cubic inches) engine. This powerplant is tuned for strong mid-range and top-end power, crucial for navigating demanding motocross tracks. With a fuel capacity of 6.40 litres (1.69 US gallons), riders can expect sufficient range for typical moto sessions. The bike's relatively light weight of 102.7 kg (226.4 pounds) contributes to its agile handling, allowing for quick direction changes and confident jumps.
The KX250's riding experience is focused on performance. Its chassis geometry promotes stability at high speeds while remaining responsive in tight corners. While the seat height of 950 mm (37.4 inches) (at its lowest setting, if adjustable) may be tall for some riders, it provides excellent leverage and control, especially when standing. Track-focused ergonomics, including a slim profile and strategically placed controls, allow the rider to move freely and react quickly to changing track conditions.
The 2022 Kawasaki KX250 is aimed at serious motocross enthusiasts, from amateur racers looking to improve their lap times to experienced riders seeking a competitive and capable machine. This bike prioritizes performance and handling over comfort, making it a strong contender for those who demand the most from their motocross bike. If your main goal is winning races, the KX250 is worthy of consideration.

• Top-end power is less impressive compared to some competitors, potentially hindering performance on wide-open straights. • Stock suspension settings may require adjustment for optimal performance depending on rider weight and skill level. • Lacks electric start, relying on a kick-start system, which can be inconvenient in certain situations, especially when stalled.Rule of thumb: under 125cc / 15HP → A1, under 47HP → A2, above → A.
