Kawasaki Versys 650

The Kawasaki Versys 650 has a top speed of 195 km/h (estimated; note: manufacturer does not publish official top speed), produces 69 hp and weighs 216 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.

カワサキバーシス650は、ER-6N/Ninja 650のパラレルツインエンジンを中心に構築された多用途のミッドレンジアドベンチャーツアラーとして2007年に発売されました。2015 年に大幅な再設計が行われ、より高くなったフロントガラス、最新のエルゴノミクス、改良されたサスペンション、改良された電子回路が採用されました。手頃な価格で手に入るパワー、直立したライディングポジション、長距離の快適さで注目を集め、このセグメントで最も人気のある中型アドベンチャーツアラーの1つになりました。

Bulletproof Engine Reliability

The parallel-twin 649cc engine is renowned for going well beyond 50,000 miles with basic maintenance. Kawasaki's conservative engine tuning means it rarely suffers catastrophic failures when serviced regularly.

⚠️

Watch the Final Drive

Pre-owned models should have the chain and sprockets inspected carefully, as many owners neglect lubrication on this high-mileage adventure bike. Also check for cracked subframes on higher-mileage examples that have seen rough roads.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The Versys 650 holds its value exceptionally well due to consistent demand and a loyal owner base, often retaining 70-80% of its value after two years. Its versatility as both a commuter and tourer keeps the used market competitive.

"見栄えのしないスイスアーミーナイフ。"

カワサキは基本的に、Ninja 650エンジンを適切なアドベンチャーツーリングシャーシに溶接し、競合他社よりも充電量を抑えました。そしてうまくいきました。パラレルツインは3,000 rpmからきれいに引っ張り、直立した座席位置なので、背もたれが壊れることなく500kmで到着できます。これはどのダイノシートよりも重要です。サスペンションはスポーツバイクの基準からするとソフトですが、舗装路が壊れたり、荷物が積まれたりする場合は正しい判断です。41mmのフォークはハードブレーキングで急降下し、後部は助手席やパニアを追加した瞬間にプリロードの微調整が必要になります。見た目が良くなく、ダッシュはバーゲン仕様で、2時間後にはシートがコンクリートに変わりますが、このバイクは何の役にも立たず、ただ仕事に取り掛かるだけです。

プロ

+トルクツイン、3krpmから使用可能
+真に快適な直立エルゴノミクス
+手ごろな新品および中古価格
+アドベンチャーセグメント向けの軽量

短所

純正シートは痛々しいほど硬い
フォークは急ブレーキで急降下します
Dashは安っぽく感じる、最小限の情報

Commuters wanting weekend touring capability too

"The sensible adventurer's choice that quietly does everything well."

$4,500-$7,500 used

The Versys 650 is one of the most underrated used buys in the middleweight segment, full stop. It's not glamorous — nobody's going to stop you at a gas station to photograph it — but that parallel twin is genuinely bulletproof if the previous owner wasn't an idiot. Check the chain and sprockets hard on any example over 20k miles, because neglectful owners exist. The suspension is soft from the factory, which is fine for commuting and light touring but gets soggy with a passenger and luggage. Budget for a rear spring swap early. The 2015+ models are the sweet spot — Kawasaki ironed out the fueling quirks and the ergonomics suit a wide range of riders well. Avoid anything that looks like it's been dropped repeatedly without repairs, and walk away from bikes with aftermarket exhausts and no service history. Those are red flags, not enhancements. This thing will happily run 60,000 miles with basic maintenance.
