Kawasaki KLX 250 first appeared in 1979 in the North American market. This generation of the motorcycle had the factory designation KLX250-A and was built on the basis of the 2-stroke motocross model KX125.

Main competitors:

The Kawasaki KLX250 model in its usual form was introduced in 1993 with two modifications - Kawasaki KLX250R (off-road version not for AO) and Kawasaki KLX250SR (version for AO). Factory designations: KLX250-D and KLX250-E. The model featured a modern look, a steel frame, disc brakes and an inverted fork (on the European versions, a regular fork).

Since 1994, new modifications have been added - Kawasaki KLX250 (version for DOP in some European countries) and Kawasaki KLX250ES (version for DOP in the Japanese market, has an electric starter and a high power headlamp). Factory designations: KLX250-G and KLX250-F.

In 1997, all modifications are discontinued, giving way to only one version, which is called the Kawasaki KLX250. Factory designation - KLX250-H. This version was universal and suitable for use on DOP (public roads). Unlike the previous generation, the new one received a more powerful headlight and minor visual changes, the fuel tank capacity decreased from 8 to 7.2 liters. This generation practically did not change until 2007, having slightly updated only in 2001 (under new environmental standards) and in 2004 moved production to Thailand.

For 2008, the Kawasaki KLX250 gets significant visual upgrades and an injector instead of a carburetor. The fuel tank capacity has been increased from 7.2 to 7.7 liters. Factory designation - KLX250-S. This model was only available in the Japanese (Asia) and European markets.

Since 2009, a version of the motorcycle for the market of North America and Australia (Oceania) has appeared, called the Kawasaki KLX250S. Factory designation - KLX250-T. The model is completely similar to the modifications for Japan and Europe (KLX250-S), but it has a 250S sticker on the plastic and a carburetor instead of an injector.

On the basis of the Kawasaki KLX250 models, a motard was also built - Kawasaki D-Tracker 250.
