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.
FEATURES
- Anodized aluminum construction
- Available in many anodized colours as listed

Vehicle Information
Kawasaki KLR650 Motorcycle - Street (1987-2026)
The Kawasaki KLR650 is an iconic dual-sport motorcycle, produced from 1987 to 2026. It is renowned for its robustness and versatility, capable of tackling both paved roads and off-road trails. Its engine is a 652cc (sometimes 651cc for early years) liquid-cooled, single-cylinder, four-stroke unit, which has maintained its displacement despite evolutions. Over its long career, the KLR650 has seen three distinct generations. The first (1987-2007) evolved with minor internal engine improvements. The second generation (2008-2018) brought a significant redesign with new fairings, a modernized dashboard, improved brakes, and a more robust front fork, while retaining the carbureted engine. The third generation (2022-2026), after a hiatus, introduced electronic fuel injection, optional ABS, LED lighting, and a digital dashboard, marking a major modernization. Specific versions such as the Tengai, the more off-road oriented KLR650-C, or the recent KLR650 S and Adventure, have also been offered. The 2026 models are mechanically identical to the initial third-generation release. Q: How can I ensure parts fit my KLR650?
