The Kawasaki KX100 is a two-stroke motorcycle made by Kawasaki, positioned between the 85 cc and the 125 cc classes, with 19 inch front and 16 inch rear wheels, compared to 17-inch/16-inch typical of the 85 cc motocross bikes. Longer travel suspension and larger bore size main differences between these bikes which otherwise are the same.[1]

The KX100 can be raced in dedicated 100cc motocross classes, or open minicycle classes, such as Supermini in Canada, which allows up to 150cc 4-strokes and 85cc-112cc 2-strokes as of 2007. The KX100 can sometimes be raced in the 125cc class however, 100cc bikes are not very common.
