DescriptionThe whole story▼

Kawasaki's revived KLE is a mid-size adventure bike without the bulk of the class leaders, and its clutch does the work that lighter adventure bikes always demand: slow, sustained and often on a surface that offers less grip than tarmac.

Key Features

  • Folding blade that swings clear instead of snapping off
  • Engineered break point inside the two-finger zone
  • Phosphated pivot seat, free of play from new
  • CNC-machined from solid aluminium, black anodised
  • Milled Gilles face for a secure gloved grip
  • Type approval still in preparation — not yet road legal in Germany

Milled from Billet

Aluminium taken from solid, machined, the bearing bore treated in its own operation, finished black. Free of slop, which on a control used to meter drive rather than simply engage it is the specification that counts.

Drive by the Left Hand

On loose ground the throttle is too coarse and the clutch is not. Holding an exact point for long stretches is the technique, and it is only sustainable when the blade sits within the fingers' natural reach.

Standing Shortens the Reach

Off the seat the arm drops and the wrist rolls forward, cutting how far the fingers can comfortably travel. Thirty-five graduations let you find a setting that works seated and standing rather than only one.

Road Approval

Approval is pending for this reference. Until it is granted the part is sold for closed-course use only as far as German road law is concerned.

Scope of Delivery

Supplied as a single black clutch lever. The switch actuation is carried over from the factory lever and is not part of the delivery, so do not discard the original until fitting is complete.
