A refined but not distorted project, keeping practicality and dynamism in mind. The bike is characterized by a redefined fairing with simplified four-position windshield adjustment and, as an option, a larger windshield is offered if you are looking for greater protection while riding.
Light clusters and directional indicators are entirely full LED and for the first time on a Versys 650 example there is a KTRC traction control selectable on two levels.
The specimen is also combined with a large screen TFT in color with Bluetooth connectivity, by connecting your mobile device via the Kawasaki Rideology app. The original Kawasaki options also include a USB socket.
The following color variants are available for 2022: Metallic spark black/metallic flat spark black; Metallic phantom silver/metallic flat spark black/metallic spark black e Candy lime green/metallic flat spark/metallic spark black.
Speaking then of the set of side cases, we note the confirmed option with color matching the paintwork, while the top box is renewed and more capacious. We highlight the versions pre-equipped with a range of original Kawasaki accessories. Together with the already known variants Tourer Plus e Grand Tourers, the versions are introduced Urban e Tourer. In any case, interested parties, by consulting the catalog of accessories, can enrich a model according to their tastes and needs.

Technology

The chassis appears slim, a tubular layout to which we must add the narrow profile of the engine, the long travel suspension and the wheels 17 inches. The capacity of the tank is also interesting 21 liters, which promises considerable autonomy. All central factors for this agile and eclectic example, on which it is possible to tackle long journeys while also carrying a passenger. The architecture of the engine does not change, a 649cc parallel twin.
