Easy Starting

The KLR®650 motorcycle’s fuel injection system makes for a reliable start, especially when your adventures take you to high altitudes or colder conditions.

In addition, the modern, single-cylinder engine is proven against the elements and incredibly fuel-efficient, making the KLR®650 motorcycle a highly reliable companion for extended on- and off-road travels.

Chassis

Composed Character

Ride confidently through varying terrain with a durable chassis and long-travel suspension. A sturdy 41mm fork handles suspension duties up front and an adjustable Uni-Trak® rear suspension system helps the KLR®650 motorcycle deliver an all-around composed riding character while front and rear disc brakes help you stop with confidence.

Ride Smoothly

Optimized suspension settings, a long swingarm, and an integrated rear frame contribute to confident handling, whether on a single track, backroad, or interstate highway.

The KLR®650 S motorcycle features a seat height of 32.1-in. versus 34.3-in. on the KLR®650 motorcycle. A combination of reduced wheel travel, reduced seat thickness, and optimized suspension settings makes it easier to reach the ground while retaining excellent suspension performance, road handling capability, and ride comfort.

Full Stop

Powerful front and rear disc brakes deliver strong and consistent braking performance throughout your entire ride. The optional anti-lock braking system (ABS) offers additional assurance when riding on lower-friction surfaces.

Comfort and Convenience

Keep Comfortable

The KLR®650 motorcycle takes comfort and touring potential to the next level while maintaining the highly acclaimed reliability of its predecessor. Optimized frame strength and rigidity, under-the-seat rubber dampers, rubber-mounted handlebars, and footpegs all contribute to maximum comfort and carrying capacity for long-distance touring.

Comfort is King

Increase your riding comfort by combatting wind and weather with the tall 2-position adjustable windshield. The optimized handlebar and footpeg positions with rubber mounts provide a relaxed riding position with low engine vibration for maximum comfort. For long rides, you'll enjoy the rubber-dampened comfort seat with a tapered shape and supple seat cover for maximum bump absorption and ride comfort.

Carry On

Pack all your essentials with the large aluminum rear carrier and available accessory side and top cases complete with a convenient 1-key system. Generous generator capacity offers 80 watts of power with an output of 26 amps, to meet the power needs of grip heaters, fog lamps, and other electrical accessories, perfect for your next extended adventure.

Styling and Electronics

Robust Style and New Tech

Turn heads with adventure-inspired colors and graphics that have been specifically designed to reflect the bike's tough capabilities and ruggedness. The all-digital multi-function instrumentation will keep you updated at a glance so you can stay in the action.

Rugged Good Looks

Take on the road with the protector-equipped shroud design that adds functional strength to the tough, adventure style. The side cover, tail cowl, taillight, turn signals, and black-coated rims add to the robust and aggressive styling of this model. And a bright LED headlight shows you the way when your ride continues past sunset.
