2013 Kawasaki Versys 650 long term review

[@andymoorhouse8820]

I put a different gearbox sprocket on one extra tooth you should try it 100 mph at 8000 rpm but I love it

[@Mikalrowley]

I unfortunately don’t have the Versys any more, but I will pin this so others can see it and try it out 😃

[@etiennevanstraaten6199]

I have the same bike 2014. Also made some upgrades lights, kaoko etc. Love my bike...

[@Mikalrowley]

I love the pic you have up with it! The yellow looks amazing 😃

[@dalec2407]

Just bought a 2013 today 20000miles original owner serviced at dealer i can't wait. Great review by the way...

[@Mikalrowley]

Low miles and I’m sure it looks great! They’re fun and really reliable bikes. I will have to get another one 😁 You will enjoy it!

[@jonathandayne]

Could you tell me what RPM you run at highway speeds, say 75 mph in 6th gear? Thank you!

[@Mikalrowley]

Yes, looks like about 5k rpm in 6th gear at 80mph

[@voxnarbo]

I like that top box. What is it?

[@Mikalrowley]

Here’s one. The original listing was deleted! www.ebay.com/itm/225188226890?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=0xXsf1IsQbC&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=z8y9fxwero6&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

The front fairing is oddly appealing to me .

[@Mikalrowley]

Yes it has a cool design to it, I like it :D

[@Chris78pl]

IMHO this is the best looking off all versys gens just love that front

[@Mikalrowley]

@@Chris78pl I like the 2015 model the best. I feel like the symmetrical look really cleaned it up, but I do like the way this model reminds me of the Tenere 660. It feels like more of an enduro/adventure bike.

[@WATCH-IT-BUSTER]

Does it have ABS and TC?

[@Mikalrowley]

Not my model. There’s an ABS model for this year that they come out with, but I’m not sure if it has TCS on it!

[@chubbyfun77]

​@Mikalrowley new one from 22 model onwards has tcs

[@johnnybravo7733]

My 2012 has ABS, but no TC
