Vehicle Information
Kawasaki KE250 Motorcycle - Dual-Sport (1977-1979)
The Kawasaki KE250, produced from 1977 to 1979, was a versatile dual-sport motorcycle designed for both on-road and off-road adventures. This model featured a robust single-cylinder, two-stroke engine with a displacement of 249cc (or 250cc) across all its production years. It was known for its consistent platform, offering reliable performance for riders seeking a capable all-terrain machine.
Throughout its production run from 1977 to 1979, the KE250 did not undergo any major mid-cycle generation changes or significant engine overhauls. Instead, Kawasaki introduced yearly model designations: KE250-B1 for 1977, KE250-B2 for 1978, and KE250-B3 for 1979. These updates typically involved minor refinements and component variations, such as different muffler parts noted between the B1/B2 and B3 models, rather than fundamental platform shifts.

Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Oil Filter | 200 hours, or 4 800 km or 6 months | Initial change at 800 km for break-in. Based on 4-stroke engines, the KE250 is a 2-stroke, so adapt accordingly. |
| Drive Chain | Lubrication and inspection every 4 800 km | The KE250 uses a chain, not a belt. Inspection of other belts (accessories) is part of routine maintenance. |
| Spark Plug | Clean and re-gap every 100 hours; replace every 12 800 km or annually | |
| Air Filter | Clean every 100 hours; replace every 200 hours or annually. For heavy off-road use: clean every 5 to 15 hours. |
