Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE 2019

Kawa's solution, conceived in the adventure sector, is an uncompromising all-purpose weapon in the sport-touring sector. The machine's greatest strength: maximum comfort paired with state-of-the-art technology and the right amount of sportiness. The Ride-By-Wire in combination with the KECS and the electronic equipment ensure super responsiveness with maximum touring capability at the same time. The finely adjustable throttle, the smooth clutch and the electronic chassis ensure an almost majestic glide on the road. At the same time, the great seating position with the matching, if not the most beautiful, windshield ensures top aerodynamics - bravo!

The Ride-By-Wire works great and provides impeccable engine response

Great electronics package that should make the rider happy

Great electronic suspension that is easy to adjust

Fantastic in-line four-cylinder engine with top response

Very comfortable seating position

Top wind protection

A lot of technology unfortunately also costs accordingly...

windshield not optimally adjustable

With its three-cylinder engine and high-quality equipment, Triumph has made a real statement with the Tiger Sport 660. In the small sports tourer class, it stands out from the field and offers a good compromise between sportiness and touring suitability. We would recommend the quickshifter to every buyer and we hope that Triumph will optimise the chassis in the next model revision. A real recommendation for fans of compact touring motorbikes!

great engine

optional quickshifter is a MUST

comfortable ergonomics

high-quality equipment

good wind protection

Chassis too soft at sporty speeds
