2017 KAWASAKI KLX140G QUICKSPIN P104 Just because the KLX140G is a small bike, Kawasaki didn't cut corners with it. Besides some of the things already mentioned, it also has aluminum rims, a generous 1.5-gallon gas tank, and front and rear disc brakes. The TT-R230 and CRF230L have drum rear brakes and heavy steel rims. The KLX140G is priced considerably less than both the Honda and Yamaha, as well. At $3699 it sells for $500 less than the CRF230L and is nearly $300 less than the TT-R230. Overall, the KLX140G is the perfect addition to Kawasaki's off-road fam- ily. It's a great bike for larger people to learn off-road on and a great fun bike for either Mom or Dad to chase the little ones on, because this little bike has a lot to offer: light weight, narrow profile, low seat height, electric starting, rear disc brake, a beginner-friendly motor and, of course, big wheels, which we found out truly does equals big fun.
