How much does the 2024 KLX300R weigh?

Kawasaki lists curb weight as 282.2 lb, or 286.7 lb for the California model. Kawasaki defines curb weight as including the materials and fluids needed for correct operation, a fuel tank filled to more than 90 percent of capacity, and the tool kit if supplied. These are manufacturer figures from its 2024 model-year specification sheet, whose footer is dated ©2026.

Seat height, price and colors

Seat height and dimensions

The seat height is 35.4 inches. Kawasaki also lists 11.8 inches of ground clearance and a 56.5-inch wheelbase. Seat height alone does not establish whether a rider can comfortably reach the ground; rider inseam, boots and suspension setup affect that experience.

Model-year MSRP and color choices

MSRP is the manufacturer’s historical suggested price for that model year, not a current transaction price or used-market valuation. Dealer inventory, discounts and present-day asking prices are not established by the specification sheet.

KLX300R versus KLX300: the model names matter

The KLX300R and KLX300 are separate motorcycles. Do not apply the dual-sport KLX300’s figures to the R. Kawasaki’s 2024 KLX300 sheet lists 10.0 inches of front travel, 9.1 inches of rear travel, a 35.2-inch seat height, 10.8 inches of ground clearance and 2.0 gallons of fuel capacity, along with different brake and ignition specifications.

MZS Green Dirt Bike Brake Clutch Levers for KLX300R 2020-2025
  • IMPORTANT NOTE - Please check "vehicle fitment list" to make sure that this model type and year work for your bike before ordering. Be sure to follow the installation instructions (in the box) to check and test before riding
  • MZS ADVANTAGE - The dirt bike KLX300R levers can prevent the fingers from slipping, the pivot design allows the lever to fold outward to prevent bending or breaking in the event of a crash. And anodized for beautiful glossy and vibrant finish, which increases corrosion and wear resistance, makes your bike stand out from the crowd

  • PREMIUM COMPONENTS - MZS dirt bike KLX 300R levers use chrome steel precision sealed bearings, stainless steel pivot and bushing parts, chrome silicon cantilever springs, aerospace grade stainless steel and chromoly fasteners, and specially designed and manufactured fasteners
  • TECHNICAL SUPPORT - Why I choose the correct model and year but still can't fit? The biggest possibility is that your lever has ever damaged before, and your stock lever has been replaced with another universal perch and lever (Not OEM), so the MZS lever will not fit your new perch. If you have this situation,we will help you solve it

When comparing the R with the KLX300 or another bike, check the intended model category and road-registration rules where you live, suspension travel and adjustment, seat height, ground clearance, curb-weight definition, fuel capacity, wheels and brakes, and actual current price. The manufacturer materials cited here do not establish local road legality or current dealer pricing, so verify those points with the relevant authority and seller.

Handlebar accessory and parts documentation

Kawasaki lists a Tapered Handle Bar, item 99994-1471-458, with a 1 1/8-inch clamping diameter. The listing says it replaces the stock handlebar and clamps and includes KLX300R model year 2024 among its compatible years. Confirm the exact part number and fitment before purchase; the listing does not establish current stock, price or availability from any particular retailer.
