ALL NEW 2010 KAWASAKI VERSYS
For 2010, the new Versys builds on the strengths of its predecessor, with updated styling and a number of upgrades aimed at making it more practical and fun to ride than ever! Cosmetic revisions give the new Versys a sharper appearance and help reflect its nimble, sporty nature. Improved vibration damping and upgraded passenger accommodations enhance touring and two-up comfort, while revised mirrors, new tie-down hooks and a host of other detail upgrades mean it’s better equipped than ever to provide maximum rider enjoyment.
Most noticeable is the new fairing, and its funkuliculous stacked headlight array. A new front fender, mirrors, muffler, clutch cover, radiator shrouds and a handful of other components complete the facelift redesign.
A truly versatile platform that maximizes enjoyment in several different types of riding, the Kawasaki Versys™ is difficult to explain and impossible to categorize. One ride is all it takes to prove the Versys is much more than the sum of its parts.

Bumps and potholes are a reality in every day riding, so the Versys’ long-travel front fork and rear shock are well damped to cope with these challenges. Its upright riding position and wide handlebars provide a very comfortable place to spend a day on the road, while its 17” wheels and sport tires make it an excellent choice for aggressive sport riding. The end result is a machine that truly offers the suspension compliance of a dual sport, the responsiveness and grip of a sportbike and the all-day comfort of a light tourer.
New rubber engine mounts look to decrease vibes from the 650 Parallel-Twin, along with revised hollow rubber-covered footpegs. The passenger accommodations are also spruced up, with the seat position fine-tuned, grab rails revised and a new seat cover material used . The three-position adjustable windscreen is larger too, for better wind protection and further improving the versatility for which the popular Kawi is named.
