As soon as you throw your leg over the 2020 MX weapon you feel right at home.

The feeling from the coil spring KYB fork is far superior and to be honest who the hell wants to be checking fork air pressure every time you ride? The KX250 also changes direction really easy and doesn’t feel like you need to fight the bike and push it too hard to get the bike to change direction. Here are the changes for 2020.

Brakes. The new generation of Kawasaki KX250 has been around for a couple of years now, the 2019 model didn’t receive too many updates at all aside from the F being dropped from the KX250F. There are several other bikes on the market that have a switch on the handlebar that you can cycle through a couple of different settings while you are riding. Complimenting the new bodywork, Kawasaki have used Ergo-fit adjustable handlebar mounts and footpegs.

The KX250 and RM-Z250 are the only 250 four-strokes that don’t have electric starting. The MXA test riders felt one major difference between the two powerplants was on the exit of corners. 2020 sees Kawasaki adopt the KYB 48mm inverted spring coil fork and the new Uni-trak shock set-up has been updated as well featuring dual compression adjustability for low and high speed damping. He did a good job, especially given that Kawasaki didn’t have the time or the budget to build an all-new bike, which means that the 2020 KX250 doesn’t come with electric start. I’m not sure what the exact problem is with the rear brake system, but Kawasaki missed the mark because the rear brake is not as good as the Yamaha’s. The engine response is really good off the bottom and in comparison to the 2019 KX250 the engine pulls a lot harder in the mid to top-end and feels a little bit more freer revving. Notes: If the bike is standing up mid-corner, try raising the forks up into the clamps by 2mm.

The 2020 Kawasaki KX™250 motocross motorcycle featuring ERGO-FIT adjustability and a powerful 249cc four-stroke engine has all the championship-proven performance you need to Be Next. For 2020, the KX250 now comes with both vents open. (1) Clutch.

Suspension: 48mm inverted KYB forks, fully adjustable, 314mm travel, KYB shock, Uni Trak, fully adjustable, 310mm travel Both of the KX250 dual injectors were moved. It is getting to the point where it wont be far off being added to the bike, but if you have been riding another brand that has an electric leg then it might be hard to go back to kicking the bike into life. Maybe and maybe not, but the 2020 KX250 is a hard starter. Racer X Films: 2020 Kawasaki KX250 with Grant Langston - Duration: 4:36. Fuel capacity: 6.4L, Engine: Liquid-cooled, four-valve, DOHC, single-cylinder four-stroke, 78 x 52.2mm bore x stroke, 249cc, 14.2:1 compression, semi-dry sump, fuel injected 44mm throttle-body, CDI ignition ENGINE Do you think Kawasaki borrowed a page out of KTM’s playbook? KAYABA SHOCK SETTINGS It’s no secret that the Yamaha has very good suspension settings, but I think there is one category where I think the Kawasaki slightly edges out the Yamaha. Of course, depending on the weight and skill of the MXA test riders, some went in on the compression and some went out. They got it right in 2017, so right that we said this in the 2017 MXA KX250 test: “We think they could give Kayaba SSS forks a run for their money.” Then in 2018 and 2019, the valving was out in left field. It is said that these Kawasaki forks are very similar to Yamaha’s SSS forks. The rear brakes have also been refined with a lager disc, which is now 250mm rotor and although I did have some initial objection to the rear brake locking up very easily and found it was very grabby (the rear brake disc has been increased by 10mm), adjusting the rear brake lever height down helped this a little, I thought maybe the brake pads would wear in and be less aggressive but they remained very strong. This is how we set up our 2020 Kawasaki KX250 for racing. Why?

So I guess you win some you loose some right? Trail: 130mm Just like your wife or girlfriend the KX can be somewhat emo/sensitive to suspension changes affecting the maneuverability of the bike, but when it’s set correctly the bike handles tighter corners marginally better than the Yamaha. Why?

It is the third-lightest bike behind the KTM 250SXF and FC250. We were lucky enough to have access to the 2020 Kawasaki KX250 for a couple of weeks and we were able to visit a couple of local tracks in South-East Queensland to get a good feel of the new model. The KX250 engine’s low-end is not as lackluster as the 2018 CRF250 engine was. The final piece to this article is the price… The KX250’s price point comes in at $7,799 (compared to $8,199 of the Yamaha) so it’s less expensive. Rolling the bars back seemed to somewhat remedy the feeling, but not completely mask the issue. Seat height: 948mm Call T.M. CHASSIS Brakes: 270mm rotor (f),  twin-piston caliper and conventional master-cylinder, 250mm rotor (r), single-piston caliper

It should be noted that the KX250 goes toe to toe with the 2019-2020 YZ250F up hills and in a drag race. Race sag: 105 mm Notes: The shock was easy as pie to set up. Rebound: 10 clicks out Right when I got on the new 2020 KX250 I immediately felt like the mid to top end power was better than the blue machine. The engine has been improved from mid to top and has a free revving feeling that makes the bike more fun to ride while giving the rider a broader power range when on the track. As a rule of thumb, the Vets and Novices stuck with the standard map—save for sand or deep loam, while all the Pros preferred the white coupler. Everyone expected a major redesign for this bike because the 2019 KX450 got a new chassis with an electric-start motor and a hydraulic clutch. Designworks to order their bulletproof KX250 chain guides and rollers that are offered in multiple colors. Ergonomically the 2020 KX250 retains that narrow frame and minimalistic bodywork. The MSRP of the KX250 was upped from $7749 to $7799 for 2020. It was interesting that two different styles of engines were so similar when measured against each other. I also found it odd that if the Kawasaki was not at TDC the kick starter was hard to kick over and almost felt like a 450ish until you put a lot of force into the kick start. The bottom line is that for 2020 Kawasaki made a move in the right direction in making the KX250 a better more competitive machine. The KX250 is light. In the past, the forks have been a nightmare. Over the last few years everyone has been playing catch up to the YZ250F and Kawasaki took aim at bridging the gap and increasing power delivery at the higher end of the rev range, Increasing the rev limit by 500rpm and making more power. For lower-level riders, especially those who didn’t have steady throttle control through corners, the aggressive map seemed to be too jerky; however, every Pro-level rider loved it. The new engine has made the bike feel more playful and fun. Claimed Power: N/A kW[hp]@rpm Here is how I feel the two machines match up against each other. A: They aren’t just good, they are great! (2) Weight. Spring rate: 5.0 N/mm This is the cheapest-priced bike in the class at $7799. Both front and back brakes are improved and provide a great linear feeling, although the rear brake did feel very strong and locked up the rear wheel pretty easily. We tweaked the rubber mounts without even crashing. It lasts longer than last year’s but won’t stand the test of time. As mentioned the 2020 KYB suspension is a spring rate stiffer and allows the forks to stay up a bit more in the stroke and also provides better feeling and traction in the front-end. After a couple of rides I felt fairly comfortable and found on the tracks with more traction that it was an obvious advantage. After my initial ride on the bike I felt that the rear brake pedal was too low and I wasn’t able to get my toe pressed down far enough to get the braking power I desired. The tank area of the seat is flatter and this allows the seat to be flatter and smoother making it easier for the rider to move weight forward.

As the 250(F) class continues to be more competitive, it puts increased pressure on the manufacturers to make a solid platform for racers to start with.

The previous 2019 engine produced the best low-to-mid power of the 250 four-stroke bunch.

To up the ante, the KX250’s compression ratio was increased from 13.4:1 to 14.2:1 via the new bridge-box piston’s revised crown design. Clutch: Wet multi-plate, cable actuation, Chassis: Tubular-steel, semi-double cradle frame For 2020 Kawasaki put a larger 250mm rear disk on the KX 250 to help improve braking power. This allows for a higher rev limit and more aggressive cams. The goal was to produce a high-revving powerplant. A lot is riding on the 2020 KX250’s much-improved engine and suspension package. 4:36.

Kawasaki made the KX250 a competitive bike, but it came at the cost of cutting out the low-end bark it once had. KAYABA 48mm COIL SPRING FORK SETTINGS

They just aren’t powerful enough to use. The seat uses a slip-resistance top surface for rider grip when seated, while the sides of the seat are smoother to allow better mobility. With a much higher-performance valve train, Kawasaki’s engineers had to build in some added durability. Q: WHAT DO WE THINK OF THE KX250’S NEW ENGINE PHILOSOPHY? (3) Price. I did move the ‘pegs to try the different adjustability of them but returned them to the stock position. But for shorter riders or even taller riders Kawasaki have made the cockpit easily adjustable, with adjustable footpegs, and ‘bar mounts. The upstream injector was moved and angled to match the 60mm-shorter airbox. Overall, we were impressed by how easy this bike was to set up.

(5) Suspension.

We set sag for each test rider at 105mm, and that was it. I have been riding the 2019 Yamaha YZ250F for some time and have become well aquatinted with it, so Keefer asked me to conjure up this article and now here we are! Q: HOW GOOD ARE THE NEW KAYABA COMPONENTS? but stalling the bike on a hot day, after a crash halfway through a moto and losing extra positions, I don’t think you will ever think about the added weight an electric start will add to the bike… ever. In theory, this would create improved throttle response.
