We ran the KX250 on our rear-wheel dyno to determine peak output from Kawasaki’s 250 four-stroke motocross bike. We documented 39.6 hp at 12,500 rpm and 18.9 pound-feet of torque at 9,600 rpm.

“You jump further than expected when pulling up the faces of jumps on the 2020 Kawasaki KX250, which tells me the motor is pulling well. It just takes a few laps for the engine to give you that confident feeling.” —Allan Brown
