I agree with your review..which is very good ... I am a newbie on dirt @71 years young after riding the street..and have a conservative riding style .. I bought a 2020 KLX Camo and it's great...light, agile .. I have just broken it in and while it has limited power and you need to pick your spots to pass it has enough power to keep up with traffic when necessary although I try to keep it off the highway and take back roads where it goes best...I also agree it looks very cool...

I have a 2019 KLX and find it very good on the street. Nimble and easy to handle. Good brakes and great shifting. I've only been off road a few times with it including some challenging terrain at an off road park in California. Works very well in the rocks. Not so well in deep sand. Fun on the trails. The one time I got in over my head it saved my butt coming down a steep hill that ended in unexpected tight and deep whoops at the bottom. The front suspension was great when put to the test.

Good to hear from another sane rider. I love the experience - but not the danger and the adrenaline. I've been riding since 1968 or so but still classify myself as mediocre skilled. I hope I don't jinx myself, though, by saying I haven't dropped a bike since 1988... The KLX 250 sounds like a bike I could like... I'll test ride one soon. In the old days I used to say that 150cc was the biggest a dirt bike should be. But this has to keep up on the road, so it gets a pass. Thanks for your post.

Great review! Thanks for your time.
Keep in mind the bike may have a top speed of x, but you've added features like saddle bags, racks, and I'm guessing a skid plate that all add a fair amount of weight. That makes a big difference in acceleration and climb capability, Hopefully the klx300 solves some of those problems!
Thanks again.

Sounds like my kind of dual-sport. At 75 years of age, it really is time I got in the dirt and a KLX 250 would be better than a pine box. This bike looks like it would be a good fit for me and a fun addition to the two Kawasaki bikes I already have. Nice review, Matthew.
