Versys 650 User Reviews
Versus is outstanding and so excellent in highway to ride and the acceleration is so unbelievable
Excellent bike, Enough power, Lightweight, Smooth, Cheap to own, Good on fuel, Tyres and oil, Easy to maintain by owner.Build quality is good.Lightweight bike to ride.
Its a very good touring machine mostly tarmac friendly.The stock tyres are useless so as the stock headlight.The seat height is the biggest concern also the seat is wide which makes more comfort but flat footing both side impossible for anyone below 5.10.The ride quality and comfort is wonderful and i wish it had traction control which will make is a good allrounder.I can tell you that versys is one of the best touring bike currently available in market at this price band.If someone is looking for a good tourer for road use then versys is the best bet and if you are looking for bit of off-road then v-storm 650 looks better.
Happy with the bike because it takes you places, pushes you to corners, and does a bit of everything that you expect. Brings a smile to my face everytime I ride it. Gives me a feeling of everlasting love for it after every ride.
Questions & Answers on Versys 650
Answered by Zigwheels Expert- Latest
- Most Relevant
- I think, there was a comparison video done by Overdrive.. Check in YouTube. Being a Versys 650 owner, I would not prefer TRK502 due to its weight, under power engine, reliability issues and past history of the brand Benelli in India. You must look between V-Strom 650 and Versys 650 if you are in market to buy one.
- At present, it would not be possible to provide a fruitful comparison as the TRK 502 is yet to be launched. So we would suggest you to wait till the brand reveals the complete details of the TRK 502. Stay tuned.
- Around 7k for every 6000 kms....then you can add tyres and brake pads and other wear and tear parts as extra.
- But the bike is going to be launch in july? with new lcd screen and led lamps? only in India or europe too?
- I would Reccomended you the Vstrom650. Reason... global riding you need as light as possible , I ride a GS1200 And a TIGER800Xcx. / but on found a rented v-storm 650 I had in Thailand a God sent. Reason is you are going for long terrain hilly mountainous roads . Many time can get traffic clogged . The vs650 move at slow speed extremely well , much better in fact than the tiger and GS I feel. Also Much less clutch work. Seem to have a higher low end torque (maybe due to the vtwin) for slow hill climbing and engine braking than the Tiger. And the vtwin is really a gem of an engine . Top end speed is also no slouch . More than can legally handle. Ride comfort was superb with that amazing seat (better than the GS). Cheap easy to push around , parts pebbly easier to get also . Maybe you loose out at the top end speed and handling. But you are not going to do that in a globe trek tour. Hands down bro .
- As per your requirements, you may go for Kawasaki Versys 1000. It delivers great power and it is comfortable too. It may not be the sharpest tool in its segment in every aspect, but its long-range comfort and inspired handling go a long way toward getting you (and a passenger) from point A to a far-away point B with a smile on your face. Do take a test ride for better clarity. Check out details.
- It will be comfortable to RIDE but you may have problems touching your feet full flat on the ground as the seat height is high.
- It's a tall bike. I am 5'10 and just about to tiptoe. However there are lowering options available. Once on the move it's one of the easier big bikes to handle. Do have a test ride and decide.
- On straight road, its not a big problem. Only in traffic and other off-road areas, you will feel the seat height a major issue. Its 840mm and seat is bit wider which makes sitting comfortable but flat footing difficult. Test ride and decide if it suits you.
