Description
The Excel Takasago aluminum alloy rim is the benchmark in off-road racing rim technology. Every Excel MX rim is engineered and designed to perform in extreme hostile environments where other rims routinely fail. In fact, Excel has won more Motocross and off-road championships - worldwide - than all competitors combined! Part of the secret is in our exclusive 7000 series aluminum alloy which has a 50% higher yield strength than our competitor's 6 series aluminum. Also, exclusive know- how in extrusion design, complex multi-step forming, advanced robotics welding, and in hard anodizing such a tough and complex material is key to Excel's strength and world market dominance. They are the choice of all Factory Works and Privateer Teams worldwide and the choice of OEM builders such as Honda, Kawasaki, KTM, Suzuki and Yamaha.

Vehicle Information
Kawasaki KLX250 Motorcycle - Dual-Sport (1979-2020)
The Kawasaki KLX250, a versatile dual-sport motorcycle, was produced from 1979 to 2020. Known for its adaptability on and off-road, it consistently featured a single-cylinder, four-stroke engine with a displacement around 249cc, though horsepower and fuel delivery systems evolved significantly over its long production run. The KLX250 saw several key evolutions. The initial 1979-1980 models featured a 246cc SOHC carbureted engine. It was reintroduced in 1993 with a modern liquid-cooled, DOHC 249cc engine, steel frame, and disc brakes, offering both off-road (KLX250R) and street-legal (KLX250SR) versions. Major updates in 2008 brought fuel injection to European and Japanese markets, while North American models (KLX250S) initially retained carburetors, receiving fuel injection later in 2018, alongside styling and chassis improvements. These changes reflect distinct generations in its design and technology. Q: How do I find parts for my specific KLX250 model year?
