KAWASAKIVersys Tourer 2011 - 2012

　　In 2011, the Japanese motorcycle maker launched the Kawasaki Versys Tourer, a middleweight motorcycle that could run on both city streets and rougher roads, boasting features that make the ride safe and fun at the same time.

　　The Kawasaki Versys was a middleweight motorcycle, first released in 2007 as a replacement for the Kawasaki KLE500, continuing production until the present (2023). It borrowed design elements from standard, dual-sport, adventure tourers, and sports bikes.

　　The 2011 Kawasaki Versys Tourer had standard features, like a single headlight unit, a small three-way adjustable windscreen, aluminum-reinforced hand guards, a two-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, side-mounted 35-liter hard panniers, an under-belly exhaust system, and six-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

　　The motorcycle was built on a diamond high tensile steel frame with an adjustable 41 mm inverted telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable offset lay-down shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent suspension performance and handling.

　　In the braking department, the bike packed two 300 mm semi-floating petal discs coupled to dual-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 220 mm petal disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering optimum suspension performance.

　　As for the power figures, the 2011 Kawasaki Versys Tourer had its soul brought to life by a 649cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 64 hp at 8,000 rpm and 61 Nm (45 lb-ft) torque at 6,800 rpm.
