Good for?

Is the Kawasaki KLR650 good for beginners?

Broadly yes. With 652cc and 40 hp @ 6000 rpm, the Kawasaki KLR650 is manageable for newer riders and is roughly A2-friendly. Confirm licence eligibility for your market and build confidence gradually.

Is the Kawasaki KLR650 good for shorter riders?

The Kawasaki KLR650 has a tall 870mm seat, which can be a stretch for shorter riders. Look for a factory low seat, lowering links, or a low-suspension variant.

Yes, for range. The 23L tank gives a useful distance between fuel stops, which suits longer days. Real touring comfort also depends on the screen, seat and wind protection.
