    Good review !
    I have the identical bike, similar equipped, here in the US.
    I agree with all points.
    I do however, ride mine mostly off highway. Mostly gravel & rough terrain.
    I know all about the front blinkers & breaking plastic.
    It is not 100% ideal for off road, but no better or worse than its closest competitors.
    I’m very happy & love the bike.
    When I do ride pavement it is very comfortable.
    Nice work 👍

    I'm 5.5 tall. I bought the lowering block (2") for $55USD and also lowered the adjustable rear shock. Lowered the front forks as well. Added 3.5" handlebar extenders. The bike fits me perfectly now. Both feet on the ground at stop, but not flat unless I slide over and use one foot. Great review my friend!!

    Thank you for specifically covering the negative points.
    Too many reviewers never even consider mentioning the negative aspects of their bike. I'm sure endorsements influence this for sponsored channels, but in my experience a high percentage of independent youtubers who have no stake in that sort of thing focus only on the positive aspects. You brought up some great points that might be deal breakers for new and experienced riders.

    As a pass gen 1 versys Owner. I agree about the plastic I've had to replace my side fairings twice. A lot of damage just from a simple tip over at a gas station.but the bike was a hoot to ride with really good handling.unfortunately I totaled it out and bought as cb500x used for a really good price. I miss the versys motor. However the cb500x parts are almost half the price of the versys. And it gets between 10 to 15 more miles per gallon.

    • @rutwickgangurde3247
      @rutwickgangurde3247 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The CB500X costs a lot in India, as much as the Versys.

  • @OlllOHD
    @OlllOHD 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you go & search older versys 650 (2010-13) you will appreciate the simplicity of front end. Even though I really like this bike but I despise the front end with all the excessive plastics & the absence of LED headlights are inexcusable. (in my opinion)

  • @inn0v8tiv
    @inn0v8tiv 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am 5'3" also. Almost every bike I come across is going to be a hassle in terms of height. The only ones that are ok in height are cruisers. You get used to handling taller bikes. The big hassles are stopping and parking. Otherwise you get used to the handling....I wouldn't tackle an Africa twin lol but the versys 650 is manageable

  • @motoryzen
    @motoryzen 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    9:45 to 9:59. When you say you sometimes get 26/27 kilo's per liter...is that while riding at 75miles per hour or 120 kph? ( *crosses fingers that you say yes) I ask because I prefer to chill riding at 60 to maybe 65 at fastest 99% of the time ( aka 97 kph to 104.5 kph)
    I'm comparing the km per liter on this bike to the honda nc750x and trying to see which one gets better mileage, BUT given the much bigger fuel tank on the Kawasaki....and alleged better windshield and dash, I'm torn.
    Thank you for a very good review video

  • @noparkingherev
    @noparkingherev 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    While changing tires, you would need to be aware of the speed and load rating of the tire. Using a Duke 390 tire on a Versys is not advisable. Taking the same example of manufacturer recommended Duke 390 rear tire Metzeler Sportec M5 110/70 R17 M/CTL (54H) where as the recommended tire for the Versys is 160/60 ZR 17 M/C (69W), this means the load and speed capacity of the "Duke" tire is (Load Rating 54 / Speed rating H) 211Kgs, and the "Versys" tire is (Rating 69 / Speed rating W) which is 324Kgs. The Versys is a heavy bike (205kgs wet - remember your luggage not included) and capable of higher speeds. It would be unsafe to use non manufactured recommended tires on any motorcycle, it will wear your tire faster, heat up more and can cause serious injury if the tire fails - save money or save your life. That being said, if the motorcycle is loaded and is going to be ridden within the speed limits of the tire it should be a good cheaper option.
