Expanding its adventure motorcycle range, Kawasaki has launched the 2027 Kawasaki 2027 KLE650, a 649 cc parallel-twin adventure tourer with UK prices starting at £7,499 (approximately RM42,400). Two variants are offered, the standard, and the KLE 650Se at £8,899 (RM50,300), with UK sales expected to begin in April 2027.
The KLE650 sits above the Kawasaki KLE500, which is available in Malaysia for RM32,900, excluding road tax, insurance and registration. The Malaysia-market KLE500 is powered by a 451 cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine producing 45 PS and 42.6 Nm of torque, paired with a six-speed transmission.
Power comes from a 649 cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine with electronic throttle valves and revised intake and exhaust systems. US-market specifications quote 70 hp and 64 Nm, although output may vary by market.
