I LOVE HOW YOU PACKED THE BIKE AND MADE A BACK REST AT THE SAME TIME

Jonny Gross I really didn’t want to add saddlebags to the bike. Using a dry bag on the pillion seat allowed me to carry all I needed and provided middle back support. Worked very well! Thanks for watching!

I have the same bike. I ride it every day for at least 100kms and she never failed to please me. When I go off road with guys on bigger bikes they always get surprised how much capable bike she is. I love it so much!

@@mordicus420I don't take my Versys 650 off-road very much. It's such a great handling street machine that I don't want to put off-road tires on it. Dunlop Q3 + tires are really great handling tires. They're better and a lot more durable than the Dunlop SportMax - 2 .

Now if you just have vibes through your handle bars. Try these......motowerk.com/collections/kawasaki-versys-650/products/antivibration-handlebar-riser-versys-650 .Had them on my 09 as well and it took out almost all the vibes. When i mounted hand guards no more vibes at all. MotoWerk makes great products for the Versys. Had most of his stuff on my 09 V-650 and now on my 16 V-1000

Joe, I really enjoyed your video and subscribed. I have a 2014 that I picked up new last summer. After spending the past 15 years on a Kawasaki ZRX1200, it's been hard to get use to a 650 twin,especially on the highway. I love the upright seating position and the fact that it is a great " I can do anything" motorcycle. I was wondering if you had any fitment issues the the Barkbusters and the larger Zero G windshield. I installed a Givi screen and I'm still having some issues with buffeting. Keep up the good work and stay safe, Rich
@ALifeMoreLight7 жыл бұрын
elitetileandstone My last bike was a 1200 Sportster! The Versys was an adjustment here as well! The Barkbusters and Zero G fit easily out of the box. I added the Givi visor to the top of the Zero G to get rid of some buffering too. Thanks for watching!

Joe, thanks for your reply. I think I'm going to install a set of Barkbusters and some Oxford heated grips.. It seems the older I get, the less tolerant I am to hot and cold weather. On a quick side note, on Sunday I took my 18 year old son with me for a ride through the Pennsylvania country side. The 650 did a decent job keeping up with my friends on their 2 brand new 1000cc Africa Twins. Rich

Paul Jensen Awesome! I️ camped and stayed indoors about equal nights. It was a lil to cold and wet in early June. Was prepared for bears and saw one in Grand Marias Michigan! I️ did one unscheduled longish day because it felt right. Most days I️ took my time to enjoy equal parts on and off the bike. You won’t be disappointed!
