Versys-X 400 speculations thread

Methinks that when viewed in that context you appear to be just as stuck in that mudhole as @cyclopathic. (For the record, I don't have a horse in this race.)

...ken...

lol. perhaps.

Should we wake you in November, just in case?

...ken...

nah! let him sleep, he looks very tired! lol

Ha Ha, they weld a seat at 37 inches, and then hang variations of engines, frames, and parts under it until it reaches the ground. (you know I'm joking, right?)

I think I would go for a new 250 over an overweight 650. Unless there's a 400 on offer.

You think motion that japan lost its mojo dacades ago is mudhole? Too bad for everyone.

LOL just woke up but this kind of continued ranting might return me to my slumber.
Bo-o-oring

Wasn't Oct 12th the Kawa release for some country somewhere?

For the US, it seems to be Nov 23rd still..

"Exactly what the new models are we can’t way, but we can confirm the covered will be pulled off the first batch of bikes on October 12th at 15:00 CEST, with the second batch being revealed on November 23rd at 15:00 CEST.."

Bold new colors revealed

Beauties, to be sure, but these are not the bikes we are looking for….

Good to note that, while the new S has handguards, it doe not have spoked wheels or a high fender.

There wee 2 bikes with spokes in the teaser, one with what looked like 19" wheels and one that looked like 21".

Hope springs eternal....

I'm waiting for the new release to hoodwink all of us and for Kawi to release a new Z125 with go faster stripes and market it as a light weight ADV bike. "YOU WANTED A LIGHT ADV WIGHT BIKE RIGHT? MEIKWAKUNA HITO!"

LOL!...and don't forget the larger fuel tank for that increased range you'll need for extended touring.

Hey don't laugh, there's a guy in Ohio that's been hitting some pretty gnarly trails with an ADV-Grom. Crash bars and everything.

And, well the Versys 1000 is an inline-4, anyway. But has it always had the "S" designation?

Tongue in Cheek - I saw the awesome Kiwigrom series when they did the TAT on a pair of them last year. I know they can do a lot more than people think!

When will the trolling stop?

Yep saw another example over in the V-Strom Owners thread, but so far no one's taken the bait. It gets old.
