INTRODUCING THE 2008 KAWASAKI KLX™140 Big performance delivered by a fun-sized dirtbike. New riders, parents and pit racing zealots come in many size and experience levels, so why relegate them to simple one-sized machines? That’s exactly the question Kawasaki’s engineers pondered before creating the new KLX™140 and 140L dirtbikes. To help satisfy a wide variety of riders in the small displacement off-road arena, this new model is offered in two wheel sizes, the more elementary 17-inch front / 14-inch rear wheeled KLX140 and the larger 19-inch front / 16-inch rear wheeled KLX140L. Both are designed to be friendly for beginners and novices, while also offering a roomy layout and enough performance to suit more-advanced riders.
