Following the adage to use the right tool for the job, the KX™100 is the perfect instrument to help competitive riders step up their game – and begin to transition into the big leagues of 250cc full-sized Lites competition. The KX100 helps bridge that huge gap between classes, providing growing adolescent riders with a machine that accommodates both their growing skill base and their size, allowing them to concentrate on honing their capabilities rather than controlling excessive power.

Bridging the Gap to the Big Time

Everybody knows it's important to use the right tool for the job, which makes the KX™100 the perfect instrument to help competitive riders step up their game – and begin their transition into full-sized Lites competition. The KX100 helps bridge the gap between classes, providing growing adolescent riders with a machine that accommodates both their growing skill base and their physical size, allowing them to concentrate on honing their capabilities rather than controlling excessive power.

The KX100’s 99cc liquid-cooled two-stroke engine offers both more power and a broader spread of it than the KX85. The 28mm Keihin carburetor and carbon-fiber reed valve assembly help provide a crisp throttle response while the Kawasaki Integrated Power-valve System (KIPS®) helps produce a powerband with good low-end torque and a strong top-end rush. The power then passes onto a smooth-shifting six-speed transmission, giving the KX a gear for every situation on the race track.

The engine is bolted to a black high-tensile steel perimeter frame with a specially designed fuel tank located inside the frame to lower the fuel load and center of gravity for optimal handling. Adjustable long-travel suspension at both ends helps smooth even the roughest motocross circuits. The 36mm inverted cartridge fork has compression damping adjustment capability, while the UNI-TRAK® rear suspension system comes equipped with a shock that’s fully adjustable for spring preload, compression and rebound damping. In the braking department, both front and rear discs are mounted with shoulder bolts for easier maintenance.

The KX100 also features aggressive Kawasaki graphics to match its black frame and wheels, just like its larger KX siblings.

Those who race their KX100 at designated events are eligible to receive support from Team Green™, Kawasaki’s amateur racing support program. Each year, Team Green provides regional support vehicles and highly trained technicians at more than 100 events, offering technical information and assistance to those who race Kawasaki products.
