Kawasaki KLX 230 First Ride Impressions: Light and fun-packed! | Review | Motorcycle | carandbike
Off-road focussed dual-purpose bikes definitely seem to have found appeal with the Indian motorcyclist. This has been particularly true in recent years with “adventure” and “off-road” becoming really trending terms in the world of leisure motorcycling in India. And this surge in demand for adventure and off-road-focused motorcycles has led to the growth of this sub-genre of motorcycles. However, if you are an avid motorcyclist, you’d agree that the wait for a proper Japanese dual-purpose motorcycle has been a long time coming. And of the four Japanese giants, Kawasaki has finally stepped forward and decided to bring the street-legal Kawasaki KLX 230 to our shores. Here are our first ride impressions on the new Kawasaki KLX 230 that will be launched in December at India Bike Week 2024.
