Sad to hear that Cristian is no longer with us but his excellent reviews live on. I am about to take delivery of a used 2019 model SE and then ride it home from 2000kms away so watching his great review has me filled with anticipation. My past riding experience has been extensive with many more powerful bikes in my history but I’m more concerned with long distance riding comfort than ultimate power these days!
This reviewer can be read barely from his physical communication giving quite realistic taste to this bike on 2D screen. Earlier I did was not so big fan for the DriveMag but this is just excellent! Thank you.
My last motorcycle was Kawasaki and I had decided to buy one but I finished with r1250rs. After 15 000 km I'm so happy with BMW. As always, the review and the video are great.
Another good review! I had a Gen 1 Versys 1000 for 5 years before buying my Yamaha XT1200Z Super Tenere 2 years ago. I still miss my old Versys and yes, I would definitely buy another one. Oh, and yes, it is a sports tourer!
@@janbasek9579 i have Versys 2020 I like it but its bit wobbly over 180km/h I reached over 200 but I cant maintain it i have no confidence Its good till 160 km/h
Good review. I bought a 2014 one and I do feel the vibration too at 5000rpm,. Looks like the new-gen did not solve that problem. It's also a bit heavy and tall for me (5"7) but I got used to it finally (with passengers and full GT loaded cases). Still, I will lower it for the next season just to be more comfortable. Other than that great bike!! Very comfortable, powerful enough for most of the thing, and passenger love the seat and position. I highly recommend it for people who like to chill or go on a road trip. It's a great and fun sport-tourer and I plan to keep it for a few years. For those who want to do communing only, the 650 might be a better choice.
Thank you for an amazingly honest review. I have a 2002 R1 with 4 inch Apex riser clipons that makes more power than this bike. Your unbiased reporting is a breath of fresh air.
And yes , it tucks very easily on gravel so one needs to be careful...the 17 inch wheels don't handle even the slightest off road conditions very well ...ive already taken 2 falls on patches of roads that were under construction with gravel layed out
Hello I had the versys 1000 "2". A very good tourer and daily bike, with a great engine . BUT, too expensive. Every 6000 kms servicing for more than 300€. sold without regret. I can't wait to see your next adventure !
Horses for Courses we say in England. It is not a sports bike !! Or they would have used the ZX10 or H2 engine. And believe it or not most of us don't try to ride like we are on a race track-I did that when I was 20-if you do ,you won't live very long or you will say goodbye to your license (fact).Good, Reliable, comfortable all round bike
When I tested it the vibrations in the seat felt too disturbing for me and from 5000rpm. I was looking to replace my Tracer 900 with a bigger sport-touring bike with better wind protection but still as sporty as my Tracer 900. This bike was very close to what I was looking for but the vibrations put me aside. And I think it needs a 5 cm longer swing arm. Beside this, a very very nice sport touring bike that is very happy to turn and lean. I ended up with a FJR1300
@@lovelessissimo yes sir! Much better. I had the touring screen on the Trace 900 and now the Puig toring screen on the FJR. In the upper part it is a big difference. It was a surprise for me to feel that I got a lot of wind on the legs on the FJR, up to the knees. I might install deflectors.... But the Kawasaki was very nice even for me at 6' 3" (190,5cm)
Nice review 10/10 for the tft display, it was soo bright during the rides and im pretty sure it will be bright in the night But i thought it was a let down when it was mentioned "quiet dangerous" at 180km/hr
The "unstable" bit comes as a surprise. Have known a few versys riders who have got no complaints on even a 650. Did I miss the mention of torque in the review?
Sorry but I have to disagree with the following points in this review - I'm the lucky owner of Versys 1000 2017 (the same engine and frame) -firstly, there's no vibrations at all, secondly it is not dangerous bike over 160km per hour! I really can't understand why it is felt that way. It's really great touring bike, confy agile with really very good engine with steady increase of power. Really I like the guys from this channel but I think that this points are blown away. Too little time on the bike I guess. You must ride this bike and than you will see for yourself, it is really great bike.
Ive had the base model for a year now and am really enjoying it ...this is a keeper ...for the adventure bit, I may go for the ktm 790 but the comfort of the versys 1000 is unmatched if you want to munch miles all day long
Nobody else in the you tube community that tested the versys 1000 19' made a reference of wabling. I hope that either was some bad front tyre or something like that cause I really like this motorcycle !!!
Hi. Thanks for sharing this review 👍 The bike is awesome. Can you perhaps consider doing a review of the chinese bike CF Moto 650MT? I've heard some good things about it and it looks cost effective too. Maybe it's good as a beginner bike? 🙂
Awesome video. I'm purchasing my first bike and came across a 2015 Kawasaki Versys 1000 for less than a 650 with 17k miles. Do you think it is too much for a beginner? It's been about 15 years since I rode dirt bikes.
Have you adjusted the high beams? I am not liking the illumination. It seems to me the low and hight beam are tied together so i can't raise the high bean without raising the low beam
Great content as Always guys. Would love to know what kind of layers you're wearing under your kodiak jacket in that weather,just picked up the same coat and plan to do a lot of cold weather riding!
Regarding safety at speed . . . If the suspension is wallowing or not stiff enough, will switching the preload/damping from just rider to either rider/passenger or rider/luggage firm things up enough?
I own the 2019 Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE LT +, and it comes with a center stand. The center stand is very easy to use, because I don't need to put much effort to lift the bike up on its center stand. I owned a 2007 Yamaha FZ1, which also has a center stand, and that required more effort to lift it up. Despite the Versys being heavier, the Versys's center stand is simple and effortless to use.
What a beautiful part of the world and thank you for another honest well rounded review. I took one for a test ride and didn’t like the handling and braking at spirited riding either. I’m in the market for a new bike for 70% solo city community and 30% two-up day touring. I currently enjoy riding a V-Strom 650, but it’s a bit under-braked with a passenger, and I’d also like a little more grunt and cruise control. I’ve got it down to three bikes that I think would suit my needs. Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT, Kawasaki Ninja 1000 SX and the BMW F900XR. If you could only have one as an only bike, what would be your pick be? Or is there one I’m missing? Cheers from Sydney, Australia. 🍻
When you get older you will like the suspension to be less hard. I don’t think this is a SPORT tourer but a Sport TOURER. It’s on my list for anew bike ( if I win the lottery)
I thought the seat to pegs and also position of handlebars was very comfortable on the V Strom and I'm 6' 2". One thing about the V Strom it felt like a street bike off road. Not good at all. For me if I bought a bike it would definitely be an Africa twin. I love Honda's. I've had quite a few and they're great.
Dan Grimes I have a Honda CBF1000 sports tourer. Great bike but now I’m getting older I would like to sit a bit more upright. That means allroad bike. Oh shit, no money. Maybe I can find some handle bar risers for my Honda.
Great comfy riding position , seat hard as a rock. I wouldn't last 20 minuets on the stock seat. At least the new 2020 I looked at had a hard seat . Like sitting on a slab of blacktop
I own the 2019 Versys 1000 SE LT +, and the seat is super comfortable. I've owned '17 Yamaha R3, '05 Yamaha R6, and '07 Yamaha FZ1, and the stock seats for those were hard and uncomfortable. Compared to my '19 Versys seat, it's plush and it doesn't cut off circulation to my legs. I rode my bike for 10 hours, stopped 3 times for gas/bathroom breaks, and my butt and lower back was not sore, compared to a supersport bike. I'm 5'10" and with a 32" inseam, and I can plant the ball of my foot on the ground. Kawasaki does make a lower seat, but I like the stock seat.
R1200GS,1290SDGT→VERSYS1000SE ? ? It was helpful because I was just thinking about whether to make the next bike VERSYS. If you increase the number of rev, the vibration will be the same. Thank you.
Salut à tous, merci de nous avoir présenté ce nouveau modèle de Kawasaki. Nous sommes très ravis de sa belle et grande forme. Nous voulons simplement vous informer qu'il est possible de maintenir ce modèle jusqu'à 10 dans l'avenir. Du côté tout -terrain, elle doit être encore plus élevée pour franchir les creux et certaines grosses pierres, de même pour traverser les rivières, il faut mieux placer le filtre à air plus élevé encore. Merci de votre compréhension. À très bientôt.
Im 6ft tall, i like the riding position of this russian guy in which i maybe i get comfortable of this motorcycle..but maybe its more nicer if the get the DNA headlight from ZX14R,to make it more agressive looking.
Really tried to like one of these when I had one for the day, it's fine but not exciting when plodding along but I found the suspension far too bouncy in any mode when pushing on. It seemed to make over taking harder because the engine is flat in a lot of places and when I tried it two up the bike became a unstable mess with little front end feel, felt more like a boat pushing the front wide on corners and I kept bashing heads with my passenger because of the amount of dive. Good tourer but a bad sports tourer imo.
Dangerous at 170/180???? , sounds like what my 1981 GPz 1100 was. In 2020 definitely an attribute that does not have to be put up with. I'll stay with a GS 1200 thank you 😁👍
I agree , it's a touring bike you can have fun on---great mix for normal use with more reliability and comfort than any European bike in the same class. Not a sports bike, or they would have put the ZX10 or H2 engine in it.Where in Europe can you do 160kph without the risk of being banned ? Where is the logic ? Did all that when I was 20 on FZR 1000
Nice bike that I struggle to understand, I really hoped for shaft drive and more leg room but it just felt too sporty and Kawasaki already has enough sport bikes.
A few years ago 120bhp was a dream bike, and many riders are able to ride quite fast with 120bhp... and I actually like a bike to vibrate, let’s me know I’m alive, norok! @threesixmoto
Nice video, I think the bike is a okay if you don't push it to hard. It's like a tour bike... There is nothing sporty about it, beside riding mode in the computer.
dude, it is motorcycle so it suppose to have some vibration, it's not a sewing machine LOL also it is sport touring as long as you have balls for a sport part.
Miss this guy so much. All my researches for choices were really helped by him RIP man. You were king at what you did.

Ouch. Are all versions of the Versys like that?
Oops that’s dangerous
One of the best... miss you buddy
Beautiful scenery, can’t imagine the feeling of riding a nice adventure bike through it.
So, it's not a sport tourer, it's a tourer. That's still a desirable motorcycle for many people.
It is a sport touring bike.

IMO yes, it’s too much bike where you are at, try the 650 first. This is a pretty serious bike.
It is not dagerous , get the 1000 cc, I had both the 650 and now the 2020 1000. Put it in rain mode until you get used to it

Nicely detailed video
if you would have the choice between the African twin 2016 or the Versys wich one would you choose. I am at that cross road
Shame it doesn't come with a centre stand - can you get it as an option. If you got some decent tyres would that the front end behave better?

How about you pick yourself up a 1050 V Strom? I owned the very first year and it was very nice.

what are you thoughts on the concours 14?
It’s still a chain drive, so you still have to lube the chain every few hundred miles. On a long turning trip it can get annoying.
do you think that bike is more confortable for duo than the BMW 850 gs adventure? thanks for the video
Looks like it is!!
that bike looks really nice, but a chain......?
Hi Friends!
Your jacket is the kodiac?
Thanks.
Can you compare with Multistrada 950s? Which is better?
Like it, I’d consider buying if it were shaft drive.
that would make it even heavier :(
Same feelings I have for it without having riding it!
When are new videos coming guys?
OK, so don't ride the bike at more than 100 MPH on public roads- gotcha. Fun review, great scenery!
