On or Off Road
Adventure Inspired
Styling wise, the tall windshield, which, together with the raised, short 16l fuel tank, lends the bike a purpose-built look inspired by off-road rally machines complemented by bright and efficient front and rear LED lighting
The rally-style design is a prime example of functional beauty, with every part carefully selected and every line painstakingly drawn. The eye is first drawn to the tall windshield, which, together with the raised, short fuel tank, lends the bike a purpose-built look inspired by Paris-Dakar rally machines. Sweeping across the bike, smooth side covers integrated with the seat contribute to a sleek style and suggest freedom of rider movement.
Lower on the bike, a 21-inch spoke front wheel and engine protection skid plate are visual cues of the KLE500’s ability to traverse many kinds of terrain.
Built to reward a wide variety of riders, the European A2 licence compliant KLE500 enjoys carefully crafted KX inspired seat, footpeg handlebar relationship plus stylish protection from the wind and elements thanks to a three position adjustable screen. Riding off-road feels natural with a riding position that is equally comfortable standing on the footpegs or sitting down. For the keen eyed, KX motocross-inspired design touches are evidenced in the long, smooth side covers and slim fuel tank which create a seamless rider interface facilitating mobility.
Transitioning off the tarmac, the KLE500 gets into its element and continues to shine. The first thing the rider will notice on the dirt is the bike’s light, nimble handling.
Class-leading long travel suspension with ample stroke soaks up bumps on challenging surfaces, while the slim fuel tank and sleek side covers make a standing riding position feel natural.
A combination of ground clearance and linear power delivery allow the KLE500 to tackle varied terrain. All together, these features let the rider enjoy outdoor exploration with confidence.
The new Kawasaki KLE500 delivers excellent performance thanks to the strongly performing engine that offers all the torque needed for off road escapades, and its lightwieght chassis makes this the choice to start your adventure.

Unmistakable heartbeat
Legendary Kawasaki twin cylinder engine.
The power available from the 451 cm3 engine is found through the entire rpm range to make it easy for riders to use, no matter what kind of riding they are doing, from low-end power for accelerating off the line in the city to top-end revs for riding on the open roads. The engine in the new Kawasaki KLE500 is up the task, no matter what it may be.
LCD or TFT ??
All the creature comforts
Both the full LCD instrument panel on the standard models and the TFT display on the SE models offer smartphone connectivity, enabling riders to connect with their machines to enjoy display notifications, riding logs, and community features.
The SE version of the Kawasaki KLE500 also comes with a very useful waterproof USB C socket.
Premium suspension
Adjustable Screen
Premium Suspension
Specially designed for excellent performance across a wide range of riding situations, a KYB cartridge-type inverted front fork works with the New Uni-Trak rear suspension to deliver top-in-class wheel travel (210 mm front, 200 mm rear) and damping settings for good manners on the pavement and superb absorption off-road.
Relaxed, Upright Riding Position
The KLE500’s riding position offers the best balance of comfort and control in a wide range of riding situations. A wide, forward-positioned handlebar, comfortable seat, and ideally-placed footpegs work together to enable ample freedom of movement to control the bike, whether seated or standing.
Adjustable Windshield
Riders can select windshield height from three positions. The lowest setting allows maximum view, helpful for seated off-road riding, while the highest setting blocks the most wind to keep the rider comfortable at higher speeds.
The SE model adds off-road-oriented features for exploring unpaved roads, while enhancing comfort on the street. A large windshield and hand guards improve comfort in a wide range of riding conditions. A larger skid plate than the standard model contributes to engine protection, adding to confidence off-road.
