Latest Versys Family Styling
Redesigned upper cowl inspired by the Versys 1000 and a new windshield bring the Versys 650 in line with latest Versys family styling.
Increased Wind Protection
Together with the redesigned upper cowl, a new windshield offers increased wind protection, contributing to greater rider comfort and adding to the Versys 650’s potential as a capable touring partner. Its four positions can conveniently be adjusted from the rider’s seat.
Slim, Upright Riding Position
Slim, upright position and wide handlebars offer a naturally relaxed posture and high controllability.
KTRC (Kawasaki TRaction Control)
Kawasaki's advanced traction control system provides both enhanced sport riding performance and the peace of mind under certain conditions to negotiate low-traction surfaces with confidence. Two modes allow riders to adjust settings to suit the riding situation and rider preference.
TFT Colour Instrumentation with Smartphone Connectivity
The compact new 4.3” all-digital TFT colour instrumentation gives the cockpit a high-tech, highgrade appearance. The new meter also offers additional features unavailable on the previous model, including smartphone connectivity.
LED Lightning
Complementing its LED taillight, new LED headlights add symmetry to the Versys 650’s “face.” LED turn signals add a modern touch, contributing to the bike’s good looks.
Long-Travel Suspension and 17” Wheels
The combination of long-travel suspension and sporty 17” wheels enables fun, sporty riding on a wide variety of roads and conditions.
USB Outlet (Accessory)
Complementing the accessory DC outlet, a new accessory USB outlet features dual-covers for high water resistance. Both power sources can be built into the cockpit’s inner cover, where they would be ideally positioned for charging accessories or personal items.
