New Kawasaki KLE teaser

Not much info here in the teaser, but the official model release date is October 24th. I am hoping the chassis is heavily KXF influenced and will be a serious light weight twin cylinder of 400-500cc. Yes, I’m a long time Team Green fan!

Same, hoping it’s going to boost their brand back a bit. KLR is just so tired.

I’ve seen spy photos of the 2026 KLR with carbon fiber milk crate as a standard OEM accessory

T7 copy shrunk 10-15%?

I’d be ok with that, especially if it’s lbs.

Rumor has it that it will be a supercharged 400 that makes 105HP and is 280lb…wet. :rofl:

Entry level

One just rode by with a milk crate. I giggled.

They seem to be hiding the weight from everyone so far…

No specs published just a PR list of “features”. Will need to see weight figures and hear the reviews about engine and suspension performance. The MSRP is only $100 more than the CF Moto IBEX 450.

Yeah, seems like that is the target

Why would you launch a new model without giving the specs?

Most specs are here. Allegedly.

Anxious for reviews. They are hiding some key things. But travel and ground clearance seem more on the casual side. Looks good though.

I just watched some videos last night on it…..I’m hooked. Plus it would pair will with my 20 year old KLR. I told my wife that, she wasn’t on board….yet :joy:

Is this bike out? I’ve never seen one in the wild. Great looking bike.

Is it 19/17 wheels?

Concept only, to date. So far that’s what they say, yes - 19/17. Sort of tying two threads together with this post, since I imagine this thing will be revealed at EICMA.
