But the line between the Versys and the ER6F is so minimal now I’m not sure
why they’re making both bikes anymore?
Very incredible testing, Like it.
Both bikes look good with great specs, but if your a shorter rider like
myself neither bike accommodates the shorter rider, anything that is taller
than 810 mm, i personally have to rule out, its such a shame bike
manufactures only seem to cater for people with a 33 in inside leg or
upwards.anyone like myself who happens to have a 29in inside leg
measurement has to bypass 90 per cent of bikes.when i read a review in
MCN,,which i buy every week the first thing i look at is the seat height,
if its over 810mm i don’t bother reading the review, but simply turn the
page, it was interesting to read the article a few weeks ago about your co
presenters who were trying each others Kawasaki er 600 out and the female
presenter who if i recall was 5ft 3in said she thought she would be going
for a triumph speed triple next, well the only way she wood be able to put
her feet flat ,would be to wear a pair of platform boots from the 70’s,till
manufactures start making a shorter version of the same models the bring
out for people with 33in and upward inside leg,then I’m afraid I’ll have to
keep my ten grand, in my back pocket
sorry forgot to add ‘total’
How does it do 2 up?
Never been a fan of this bike. But I like the look of this model.
triumph should sue them for copying the tiger 1050
Nominated for biggest douche in the universe! Congratulations!
Your boringness came out so much just as much as mine about this
bike
So the 650 is cheap and the 1000 is affordable… I would say they
represent value for money myself.
I’ve always thought of the Versys as all the bike anyone would need, like
the Volkswagen Golf of the motorcycle world. Looking forward to hearing
more about them in the future.

Der nächste Allrounder mit etwas weniger PS ist die neue Kawasaki Versys
650. Das Modell hat ein neues Design erhalten, dazu gehören u.a.
Doppelscheinwerfer und das verstellbare Windschild, welches den
Geräuschpegel hörbar minimiert. Auch die Vibration des Motors wurde
reduziert. Die Versys hat 69 PS, 21 Liter Tankvolumen und ein Gewicht von
216 kg.
