KAWASAKI KLX450R 449 (2008 - 2009) Description & History: The 2008 Kawasaki KLX450R is an off-road and trail motorcycle which can be relatively easy transformed into a street-legal machine. Unlike other off-road machines, the 2008 KLX450R comes with an industry-standard headlight and a tail/ brake light, as well. All one needs to add are blinkers and a license plate, provided all homologation goes well.
This bike is loaded with a lot of nifty features such as an electric start, fully-digital comprehensive and compact, easy-to-read instrumentation, while the 5-speed gearbox ensures easy tackling of pretty much any terrain. Couple all this with the adjustable suspensions and you get a bike which can literally go everywhere, if ridden skillfully.
