Kawasaki Versys 1000 S 2022

Kawasaki Versys 1000 S 2022

Versys stands for "versatile system" and that is exactly what the Kawasaki tourer actually represents. Comfort and sportiness, slow and fast, short and long - the Versys can do it all. The chassis responds superbly, the handling is absolutely effortless, the engine emotional and at the same time sensible. In this price range, it is hard to impossible to find a better compromise.

Engine is smooth yet emotional

high-quality chassis

terrific wind protection

great seat comfort

effortless handling

completely neutral behaviour when leaned over

Quickshifter works poorly at low revs

windshield adjustment cannot be operated while driving

cruise control takes some getting used to.

The 600 Hornet is already a classic in this segment. The first Hornet was inexpensive and at heart it was a somewhat slimmed-down CBR. Just under 100 hp and the cool design were enough to be able to show off everywhere, even with little money.

Huge second-hand market

great engine tuning

qualitative

visually sophisticated

strong brakes

ABS.

Limited lean angle clearance

chassis needs improvement

cheap details.
