Model Year: 2024 Engine: Liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, single-cylinder Displacement: 249
Slim, Ergonomic Bodywork
All-new KX450-style bodywork features long, smooth surfaces and a flatter tank-seat line designed to facilitate rider movement and control.
Even More Powerful Engine
Additional engine updates increase peak power of the already powerful engine by approximately 1.0 kW (1.4 PS). Rev limit increases a further 350 min-1.
Electric Start
Electric start makes restarting the engine as easy as pushing a button.
Fine-Tuned Suspension and Brake Components
Updated suspension settings contribute to increased bump absorption and traction, while minor brake component revisions enhance controllability.
Hydraulic Clutch
Like the KX450, a hydraulic clutch offers more direct feel and lighter lever action. Less play as the clutch heats up during heavy use results in more consistent feeling.
Lightweight Aluminium Perimeter Frame
KX450-based frame (an evolution of the current design) and KX450 swingarm offer improved handling and increased rear wheel traction.
Renthal Fatbar
Factory-style Ø 28.6 mm Renthal aluminium Fatbar, a popular aftermarket part, is now a standard feature. The thicker handlebar helps reduce vibration and shocks transmitted to the rider, while the new grip position (19 mm lower, 8 mm closer) helps put the rider in a position that makes it easier to weight the front wheel.
Launch Control Mode
Launch Control Mode is a motocross-use start mode that helps riders get the holeshot by minimising wheel spin off the start.
ERGO-FIT
ERGO-FIT is an interface system that allows a wide range of riders to feel at one with their machine.
Dual Injectors
Dual Injectors, each with a distinct role, operate at different rpm ranges, to deliver both quick response and increased high-rpm power.
