Expert opinion and recommendation

The Kawasaki Versys 1000 is a stellar choice for anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable touring motorcycle in India. With its smooth and versatile 1043cc inline-four engine, this bike excels in both city riding and long-distance touring. The ergonomics are spot on, offering a commanding and upright seating posture, although the lack of a height-adjustable seat might be a concern for shorter riders. The bikes performance is impressive, with ample power for high-speed cruising and excellent handling on twisty roads. However, its not designed for off-road adventures, and the suspension, while comfortable on well-maintained roads, can feel bumpy on uneven terrain. Despite some minor drawbacks, such as high maintenance costs and limited electronic features in the older models, the Versys 1000 offers unbeatable value for its price, making it a great deal for those seeking a comfortable and powerful tourer.

Latest Updates

Recent news and announcements

Kawasaki is speculated to be upgrading the Versys 1000 for the 2025 model year, potentially increasing the engine capacity to meet stringent environmental regulations. This move could help the bike compete better against rivals like the BMW S 1000 XR and Suzuki GSX-S1000GX. I think this upgrade is necessary to keep the Versys 1000 relevant in the market.

The 2024 Kawasaki Versys 1000 S has been praised for its advanced features, including a full-color TFT display, Bluetooth connectivity via the Kawasaki Rideology App, and an IMU-enhanced electronics package. The bike also features a quick shifter, LED cornering lights, and rider-selectable integrated riding modes. I believe these features make the Versys 1000 S a compelling choice for adventure touring.

The 2024 Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE is set to be released in North America, featuring a boosted engine with approximately 133 horsepower, up from the previous 118 horsepower. This model also includes hard bags, a TFT dash, and Showa Skyhook suspension, making it the highest-spec version available. The addition of a USB-C charger on the handlebar is a welcome feature for long-distance riders.
October 2, 2023
Kawasakis Versys 1000 is known for its long-travel suspension, which allows the bike to handle less-than-perfect road conditions with ease. The bike features lightweight 17” wheels and a supersport-grade high-precision brake management system, similar to those used on the Ninja H2 and Ninja ZX-10R. This setup makes the Versys 1000 highly capable on various road types.

Ex Showroom Price vs On Road Price
Ex-Showroom Price is the Manufacturing Cost of the vehicle + Dealer/Seller Profit + GST (Goods and Service Tax) + Transportation Charges (from the manufacturing plant to the dealership). On the other hand, the On-Road Price is the actual cost you pay to the dealership to make the vehicle legal to run on the roads. It includes Ex-Showroom Price in your city + RTO Charges (Vehicle Registration) + One Time Road Tax + Insurance Charges. The On-Road Price also includes some optional things like if you opt for Genuine Accessories and Extended Warranty while buying a vehicle. Please note that the On-Road Price varies a lot across different states in India due to different percentage for the State Registration Charges.
