presentation of the VERSYS 1000 TOURER 2017
The maxi-trailers, whose clan attracts all the attention, have become the SUVs of the motorcycle world. They've retained a certain trail profile, but their passion is no longer for trails or crossing. With the exception of a few rare machines, these imposing motorcycles are content to climb a curb or pave a dusty road when adventure beckons. Their thing is the road. And the Kawasaki 1000 Versys plays right into this niche, with an appreciable dynamic bent. With the Tourer series, it offers little extras so that the crew can go away for an extended weekend.
with this pack, the tank is protected from zippers and imponderable drops (keys, change, telephone, asteroids....) with a set of transparent stickers. Hand protectors limit the effects of cold and bad weather, while enhancing the trail look. Above all, the luggage compartments provide space for all your belongings, plus a bottle of Apremont and a Rebloch' for a picnic. The suitcases each hold 28 liters and open with the ignition key. A set of 2 x 27-liter inner panniers is included to further protect personal belongings. This Tourer pack includes :
- Bag attachment kit
- 2 x 28 L panniers
- One-key pannier lock system
- Saddlebag lids
- Saddlebag stickers
- Pannier interiors
- Hand protector support
- Plastic hand protectors
- Tank protector
now that you've packed your sweater, Bermuda shorts, flip-flops and mittens, all you need to do is get away with the joy of the 120 hp engine, supported by traction control and riding modes. The original Versys 1000 loves to ride dynamically, and its restyling gives it even more sex appeal. If you're looking for more equipment, there are two other versions in the range: the Tourer + with additional lights and a gear indicator, and the Grand Tourer, which adds a top-case, casing protectors and almost half the accessories catalog.
