KAWASAKIVersys 650 2012 - 2013

　　The Kawasaki Versys entered in 2013 with the same versatile design and comfort-minded architecture as its predecessors, suitable for multiple scenarios, such as everyday commuting, longer journeys, and even light off-road ridings.

　　The 2013 Kawasaki Versys 650 featured the most compact engine in its class that allowed the construction of a smaller, lighter, and narrower machine resulting in more maneuverability.

　　The key to the Versys’s success was the carefully designed cockpit that offered a natural, upright seating position with a two-piece seat that provided optimum comfort for the rider and passenger, a three-way adjustable windscreen, and an easy-to-read instrument cluster.

　　In the power department, the 2013 Kawasaki Versys had at its core a 649cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 64 hp with a peak at 8,000 rpm and 61 Nm (45 lb-ft) of torque available at 6,800 rpm.

　　Mounted onto the small, light, and narrow trellis frame, the suspension offered a plush ride thanks to its 41 mm long-travel inverted fork on the front that provided excellent performance in various riding conditions and a single-shock absorber on the rear that featured preload and rebound adjustability.

　　As for the braking performance, the 2013 Kawasaki Versys packed two 300 mm petal discs with two-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 220 mm disc squeezed by a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel.
