Prós e contras em comparação
Kawasaki Versys 1000 2016
A Kawasaki Versys 1000 não é um modelo completamente novo - mesmo que se pareça com um do ponto de vista do design. O visual foi inteligentemente adaptado à atual linha agressiva da Kawasaki com dois faróis pontiagudos e muitas arestas na frente. Tecnicamente, por outro lado, foi cautelosamente atualizado - mas de forma bastante sensata. Dois cavalos de potência adicionais aumentam a potência para 120 cv, o que é excelente para conduzir graças às maravilhosas características de quatro cilindros em linha. O chassis corresponde às exigências desportivas de uma Kawasaki, mas a ergonomia e a posição confortável do assento permitem viagens longas - tal como uma grande enduro. Com acessórios úteis, tais como um conjunto de alforges, top case, punhos aquecidos e faróis adicionais, a Versys 1000 torna-se numa séria tourer de longa distância - o preço base comparativamente baixo torna estes acessórios bastante acessíveis.
