Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Versys 650 2013

With a full tank of only 211 kg, it is particularly easy to handle in the mountains. All in all, it is at home almost anywhere, an everyday bike with that certain kick. With a new headlight and modernised design, the Versys is back on the attack.

Absolutely suitable for everyday use

interesting concept

very low consumption.

Performance not too high.

BMW F 650 GS 2009

When it comes to optional extras, accessories and driver equipment, BMW is the benchmark for us. The driver can have his vehicle configured exactly to his wishes and also order the matching clothing at the same time.

Manoeuvrability

agility

low seat height can be reduced again

heated grips

comfortable seat

resale value.

Wind protection somewhat suboptimal compared to the F800.
