As part of the Cycle World testing protocol, we placed our 2022 Kawasaki KLR650 Adventure on our in-house Dynojet 250i dynamometer, recording horsepower and torque figures. The KLR produced a peak 34.61 hp at 5,910 rpm and 33.52 pound-feet of torque at 4,700 rpm. A combination of smooth, tractor-like power delivery from 2,000 rpm until its redline of 7,000 rpm, and a notably flat torque curve makes the KLR a docile adventure machine and offers flexibility in various riding scenarios.
