Engine
The engine on this new version is a gem. The new Kawasaki features redline at 10,000 rpm, which is certainly a good thing for all riders. Power is strong with two power modes. This is definitely a fast and impressive motorcycle with a smooth engine. The engine also includes rubber mounted pegs, bars and a counter balancer. If you have already ridden a Kawasaki 1000 LT’s sibling models, then you must know about the vibration issue. However, this model doesn’t have that kind of vibration issue with the updated smooth engine.
Windshield and the New Brake System
This new model includes an updated windshield, which is well adjusted to the tallest position to help the rider the most. The windshield helps riders to feel a bit warmer while riding. It indeed improved the overall look of this modern motorcycle from Kawasaki. The brakes in the new 2015 Kawasaki include dual front discs. Both the discs are of 310mm and include 4-piston calipers. The clutch with a light pull helps the riders to keep the control over the wheels during extreme corners.

To remove, open and lock the bags, there is a one-key system included with the bike. With the optional KQR 47-liter top case, the Versys’ storage can be further increased.
New power modes
