Yes the Kawasaki KLR 250 has a battery albeit almost as small as a 6 volt battery we all played with in 5th grade science class. The 2002 model uses a 12 volt, 4 AH. FBL4L-A It'll cost you about 30-40 dollars. Jim Bunce

No, my 2005 KLR 250 does NOT need a battery to run. I run mine without one all the time. I do have a battery eliminator installed though. It is essentially a large capacitor that keeps the charging system from running at full capacity and burning itself up. I ran the bike for a long time with a completely dead battery and it ran fine. Now that takes care of the question of "Does it have to have one", now legally the DOT requires you to have lights that will stay illuminated if the engine stops. The only way you can meet that requirement is to have a decent charged battery installed.
