KAWASAKIVersys 650 ABS 2014 - 2015

　　In 2015, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Kawasaki Versys 650 ABS, a multi-talented middleweight motorcycle that came with several upgrades such as new styling, more power and torque, improved comfort, and a new suspension that enhanced the already plush ride featured by its predecessor.

　　Some of the new features brought upon the Versys 650 ABS included a new front-end style with an aggressive and functional design, repositioned footpegs and rubber-mounted engine for fewer vibrations, a new larger windshield with increased adjustability for more wind protection, and a new Showa front suspension with a KYB rear shock absorber.

　　In addition, the bike also featured new passenger grips, Kawasaki Quick Release (KQR) saddlebag mounting system, a larger fuel tank for more range, new brake master cylinders with Nissin calipers, and more power and torque.

　　In the visual department, the bike came with a new dynamic style and an aggressive appearance inspired by Kawasaki's motorcycle heritage. The front fairing featured a functional design and instead of the vertically stacked headlights, Kawasaki fitted two horizontal headlights that represented the sportbike heritage in a unique Versys package.

　　In the performance department, the engine was fitted with a new one-piece exhaust system that boosted the high-rpm power matched by Electronic Control Unit (ECU) changes, which also improved fuel efficiency.

　　As for the power figures, the 2015 Kawasaki Versys 650 ABS took its thrust from a 1,043cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 69 hp with a peak at 8,500 rpm and 64 Nm (47 lb-ft) of torque at 7,000 rpm.
