　　In 2012, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer released the Kawasaki Versys 1000 Grand Tourer, a dual-sport machine with additional touring-oriented features, offering a more comfortable and enjoyable riding experience.

　　In the storage department, the Kawasaki Grand Tourer had installed a large top case on a powder-coated luggage rack and side-mounted panniers that summed 117 liters of storage space, making it suitable for long-range journeys.

　　The bike was built on an aluminum twin-tube frame with an adjustable 43 mm inverted telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable horizontal back-link gas-charged shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent handling capabilities.

　　In the braking department, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 300 mm semi-floating petal discs coupled to a four-piston caliper on the front wheel and a 250 mm petal disc tied to a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel.

　　The 2012 Kawasaki Versys 1000 Grand Tourer had installed underneath its fuel tank a 1,043cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system, delivering 118 hp at 9,000 rpm and 102 Nm (75 lb-ft) torque at 7,700 rpm.
