The KAWASAKI VERSYS 1000 S is not as thrilling or awesome to ride as its competitors. The shock is not that great and the dash seems to be a bit underwhelming, but if you are on the lookout for a value-for-money mile-muncher, you will find the Versys S to be a good choice. The seat is comfortable but I can hear a few vibrations. It has a smooth engine yet the bike is not very enthralling to ride. With a taller screen, it is bulkier and has a softer suspension. Carrying a pillion seems to be very uncomfortable with this bike. Do not invest in this bike!

Great for touring almost anywhere
Even though this is not a touring motorcycle, I have used it as one and had no problems with it. I personally wanted to go to the mountains on a motorcycle much like almost any biker wants, and I got to do with on this motorcycle, which checks off one big part of my life’s... Read More
