    [URL="https://www.zigwheels.com/forum/profile/21"]JijoMalayil[/URL] Yes. But I think the G 310 GS will undercut this bike both in price and equipment. It'll be a welcome addition to the segment nonetheless. The only issue is the service costs. Most of Kawasaki's parts are imported and are really expensive. I hope Kawasaki does something about this and make the bikes a little more accessible to enthusiasts like me. :)

    [URL="https://www.zigwheels.com/forum/profile/40"]Praveen[/URL] Impressive list of equipment, Kawasaki should definitely bring this twin-cylinder bike to India. I guess the prices if introduced in India will be in the range of Rs 3-3.5 lakh. That would ensure it will give a tough fight to the upcoming BMW GS 310.

    [B]Kawasaki Versys- X250 Launched in Indonesia:[/B] Looks like Indonesia always gets the good stuff. Japanese two-wheeler giant Kawasaki has launched their latest budget adventure tourer- the Versys- X250 in the country. The icing on the cake is that the bike is available in two variants- one for city riders and another for adventure-touring riders. The City variant is priced at INR 3.12 Lakhs while the tourer variant is priced at INR 3.67 Lakhs. The bikes are powered by the Ninja 250's twin cylinder 250cc engine. Though no official power figures were revealed, expect the bikes to put out a similar amount of power albeit a bit more tuned towards touring and off-road riding. [RIGHT] [LEFT]The bikes are equipped with top cycle parts like slipper clutch, fuel injection, 41mm telescopic front forks, Nissin brakes, six-speed transmission and a 17-litre fuel tank.

The 'City' variant is the basic model without all these fittings. I wish Kawasaki brought this mile-munching/mud-plugging (your choice!) machine to India. If they do, then I'm sure Kawasaki will sell these bikes like hotcakes because right now people are just touring with the Ninja 300 as there is no affordable model from Kawasaki in the touring segment. The Versys- X250 has a good potential to do well in our market. What do you guys think?[/LEFT] [/RIGHT]
