The well-thought-out riding position lends the KLE500 a natural feel whether standing or sitting, while seamless bodywork lets the rider move around freely. A rider-focused and highly controllable character makes the KLE500 the ideal choice for any long adventure ride.
RALLY-INSPIRED STYLE
A Prime Example of Function Beauty
Distinctive rally-inspired styling sets Kawasaki’s new adventure machine apart. The KLE500 looks just as ready to get dirty on the trails as it is to cover a long highway journey in comfort. A blend of three stylistic aspects—an authentic rally-raid image, familiar street bike elements, and KX motocrosser-inspired design touches—creates Kawasaki’s new adventure style.
TOURING CAPACITY AND COMFORT FEATURES
Ready To Discover New Horizons
On the way to the next adventure, the KLE500 glides along the pavement, carrying the rider in comfort. Wind is kept at bay via a 3-position adjustable windshield, a well-cushioned seat contributes to superb ride comfort, and excellent fuel economy minimises fuel stops on long journeys.
