Good review !
I have the identical bike, similar equipped, here in the US.
I agree with all points.
I do however, ride mine mostly off highway. Mostly gravel & rough terrain.
I know all about the front blinkers & breaking plastic.
It is not 100% ideal for off road, but no better or worse than its closest competitors.
I’m very happy & love the bike.
When I do ride pavement it is very comfortable.
Nice work 👍
I'm 5.5 tall. I bought the lowering block (2") for $55USD and also lowered the adjustable rear shock. Lowered the front forks as well. Added 3.5" handlebar extenders. The bike fits me perfectly now. Both feet on the ground at stop, but not flat unless I slide over and use one foot. Great review my friend!!
afdave Gimail same tall here , any problems with stock bike?
What is your opinion for a person who's 6'2?
@@generationwolves I'm 6'1 and this bike is really comfortable. The height is still odd to get used to since I normally ride a low cruiser, but I had no prob putting both feet down
Thank you for specifically covering the negative points.
Too many reviewers never even consider mentioning the negative aspects of their bike. I'm sure endorsements influence this for sponsored channels, but in my experience a high percentage of independent youtubers who have no stake in that sort of thing focus only on the positive aspects. You brought up some great points that might be deal breakers for new and experienced riders.

A very honest and detailed Pro's and Con's ....thanks
U have explained ur ownership of verses very well thanks for the info bro
This is why i believe you bulu bhai. You are the honest reviewer.
Bulu bhai ur so much filled up with positivity.. Always feels good to see u
As a pass gen 1 versys Owner. I agree about the plastic I've had to replace my side fairings twice. A lot of damage just from a simple tip over at a gas station.but the bike was a hoot to ride with really good handling.unfortunately I totaled it out and bought as cb500x used for a really good price. I miss the versys motor. However the cb500x parts are almost half the price of the versys. And it gets between 10 to 15 more miles per gallon.
The CB500X costs a lot in India, as much as the Versys.
I am 5'3" also. Almost every bike I come across is going to be a hassle in terms of height. The only ones that are ok in height are cruisers. You get used to handling taller bikes. The big hassles are stopping and parking. Otherwise you get used to the handling....I wouldn't tackle an Africa twin lol but the versys 650 is manageable
If you go & search older versys 650 (2010-13) you will appreciate the simplicity of front end. Even though I really like this bike but I despise the front end with all the excessive plastics & the absence of LED headlights are inexcusable. (in my opinion)
Finally a honest review of all the reviewers that say they are honest reviewers.
Order the sargent seat for this bike it will bring your ride to another level. Also keep stator to voltage regulator connector clean and apply dialectic grease
9:45 to 9:59. When you say you sometimes get 26/27 kilo's per liter...is that while riding at 75miles per hour or 120 kph? ( *crosses fingers that you say yes) I ask because I prefer to chill riding at 60 to maybe 65 at fastest 99% of the time ( aka 97 kph to 104.5 kph)
I'm comparing the km per liter on this bike to the honda nc750x and trying to see which one gets better mileage, BUT given the much bigger fuel tank on the Kawasaki....and alleged better windshield and dash, I'm torn.
Thank you for a very good review video
Thank you for a great review, I wanted to ask how good is the low range power?
Good long term use review Bulubhai. Now as you are using a proper engine guard, in case of a fall there wont be any damage. I use the same guard & had 1fall but not a scratch any where.
Thanks very much for the detailed review. Is the warranty nullified if the bike is serviced elsewhere, if yes... How do we tackle it?
Bulu bhai, wont say ur among best vlogger. But definitely amazing person. I can feel ur personality in every word. Still thank you for being a moto vlogger 👍👍
Good & honest review. Since (sadly) it's only a road bike & if you have money to spare... Would you prefer ninja 1000?
hey man, i'm from france, and i just found this video ! (i'm an ER-6N owner and want to buy a versys) it's a great video, thanks from france!
Hello Thomas greetings from UK...I am also owner of the ER6N and thinking about Versys. Have you bought it?
Can you do comparision video of suzuki vstorm 650xt vs kawaski versys 650
Pro:
handling at slow speed,
Engine in general,
reliability
Road presence,
Great comfort for rider as well as pillion,
Easy to take out of parking lots and all that...trust me u gt used to its weight in a couple of weeks...
Cons:
No rear tyer hugger,
Vibrations at lower rpm,
Plastic windscreen rattles a lot and the adjustment gets loose with in 100 km of ride all the time.
Bulu bhai . This video is 3 year old. How about buying a versus 650 now? Anything changed or is it the same now ? I am asking about negatives
which is the best sportsbike (capacity 600 to 1800cc) in your opinion.....
I think a centre stand would have been an added bonus for chain maintenance...u do have options like moto jack.or groller but nothing beats a centre stand..plus the service quality at least in pune is not upto the mark if you go beyond the oil and filter changes..
Thanks for the information bhai!! Waiting for Honda CBR 650F review !!!!!
Honda 650 way better than kawasaki versus
Also honda made it spares very affordable in india
It is very under rated bike in india
Bulu sir my budget is 10 lacs iam confused versys or v strom which is the best option in 2022 .i test ride bout bikes but just short distances i don't understand any thing sir .my requirements.......iam not off road guy only long highway tours but unexpected potholes and sand in road which bike is best and maintenance cost also should be low I mean reasonable and long term reliability also 😀. Good suspension also required my height is 6ft plz suggest me I think you or correct person to suggest to me why because iam fallowing since 4yrs u have lot of ownership experience in versys and other big bikes
why you bought this bike as you said you are a short rider.....some other guy suggested this is good for city commuting also.....would appreciate a clarification.....thanks
I agree the high beams are useless. When turned on the go up about 4 inches.
Can you not adjust rear suspension to reduce ride height or soften shocks?
In Dominar 400, I saw my friend reducing rear ride height a lot and ending up flat footing easily
For a shorter person, how do they manage in case a pillion needs to climb on? cuz the pillion will put their entire weight on a foot peg and then swing over to sit.
Nice video... Most points covered... Bro.. try to keep your videos under 8 min if possible.
Namaskar bulu bhai .That's really a good ownership review. Best of luck.
I really think you should try a Harley Davidson Road King I’m 5’ 4” and I find it very comfortable and very reliable. I’ve had mine for 8 years. I don’t put on as many miles as you do; however, I think you will appreciate the mileage you get out of the tires and the great dealer network. I rode dirt bikes as a kid. I wanted to make the adventure touring thing work but asking a touring motorcycle to go off road involves too many compromises. Thanks for making this video, but I wish I could let you try my bike.
I ama planning to buy Versys 650. It will be great if you tell me which crashguard, panier support and auxiliary light I should buy.
Bulu bhai, between versys 650 and Bonneville t100, which bike would you suggest for a person who is 170 cms tall and likes to go on high way rides 80% and 20% slight offroading? Please give your honest opinion. Thanks!
Great Review. Just some suggestions for improvement. Please place your camera on a tripod. Also your hands coming repeatedly in video are distracting.
What kind of top case you’re using?
Coocase.. but not great quality
Do you really feel that I should get an extended warranty from company especially for Versys 650.
I have booked the new version of Versys 650.
how many bikes in all you have? do you get sponsorships from these companies to create their videos?.......and have you taken any special professional riding courses.......also, pls advise safe and correct practices riding the bike........
Now in 2020, what do you think about suzuki v strom 650 xt ? Plz suggest sir 😢
Hey bulu please make a video on the triumph scrambler. I want to know about it by your point of view. Hope this happens sometime soon.
Cheers to you 🍻
How does the bike handle in city traffic especially blr traffic!!! Is the handling of the versys 1000 any different when speaking of city riding??
Bulu bhai shall it be a better choice to buy new launched honda cb500x, bcs price also same.
Versys is any day better bro
8:37 Bulu bhaina, radiator guard nahi lagaya kya? What are those scratches?
Make one to benelli trk 502🔥🔥🔥
Very informative video
Bulu bhaai awesome vdeo thanks
Ek suggestion hai sir tripod laga ke shoot kia karo vdeo please ,,, hilti Hui vdeo zyada der dekhne se sir ghumna lagta h I have experienced it many times watching ur videos sir
Ha ha I felt so yaar.. sorry for that
Bulu Biker don't be sorry please
It was just a suggestion
Considering that the versys 650 does not have the traction control, would you recommend it for even little off road , please advise
Nice vlog Bhai 👍 service interval kitne kms k hai versys 650 ka ?
Maintenance cost per km? Which is ur USP apart from genuine insight
Ive flopped my bike over 3 times in very ruff steep rocky places. The kind of place a verseys shouldn't be. Scratched plastic and bent blinker to the max but nothing broken yet. Plastic may be tuffer than we think! Or i just got lucky.
Hi Bro.. I am planning to buy bike.. Can you plz suggest
Bhai help me...What is the best place to buy Second hand Kawasaki versys 650 in Bangalore?
Hi can you give me details of crash guard and a link to where to buy it.
Sir have you had the chance to have a pillion while riding in heavy city traffic? how do you manage, hope you can make a video, would be interesting.
Bro between this and cb500x, which is cheaper to maintain?
Easily CB500x mate. Honda is always much much easier to maintain.
How is it compared to suzuki v strom 650xt..?
While changing tires, you would need to be aware of the speed and load rating of the tire. Using a Duke 390 tire on a Versys is not advisable. Taking the same example of manufacturer recommended Duke 390 rear tire Metzeler Sportec M5 110/70 R17 M/CTL (54H) where as the recommended tire for the Versys is 160/60 ZR 17 M/C (69W), this means the load and speed capacity of the "Duke" tire is (Load Rating 54 / Speed rating H) 211Kgs, and the "Versys" tire is (Rating 69 / Speed rating W) which is 324Kgs. The Versys is a heavy bike (205kgs wet - remember your luggage not included) and capable of higher speeds. It would be unsafe to use non manufactured recommended tires on any motorcycle, it will wear your tire faster, heat up more and can cause serious injury if the tire fails - save money or save your life. That being said, if the motorcycle is loaded and is going to be ridden within the speed limits of the tire it should be a good cheaper option.
I think you rido CBR650F and Versys 650...So which one is more fun to ride and which has more initial power to overtake someone.. which has better reliability CBR or Versys??
Bulu Nice video !
Informative !
Bulu sir, which bike you would prefer to take for Leh trip. Highways a lot more than total off-road condition which include loose gravel and pebbles.
Any bike will do buddy
Hello Bulu biker, why do you not to try with MotoWerk Lowering Kit, I am 5.6 and I thinking to buy versys, how much is now seat heigh when you shave seat.
Hello Bulu bhai! I just wanted to check where do I find used Kawasaki versys 650 to buy in Bangalore?
What will be the per km cost of maintenance of this bike .
Hello Bullu bhai..
Even I am 5'3" too. Can you please suggest me a good touring bike under 5L and 10L. Please sir. 🙏
I dont agree with you saying that the plastic fairings are easy to break..i tell you, its very good quality thought it will scratch easily
My height is '5' '8'" can i ride this machine comfortably please tell me sir
honest review bhai amazing video :)
kabhi bs4 himalayn pe bhi aise hi kuch banaiye, kisi bhi youtuber ne dhang se long term review nahi banaya hai iss bike pe
On 25th will do the Himalayan review getting it from a afriend will go on a along ride n review
love you bhai :)
Hi Bulu bhai, I heard that white aux lights are illegal. Is that true?
What is ur opinion about Suzuki V Storm
Lose that front number plate in Australia - not putting that thing on my bike. Colour is too dark for safe riding. How are people in cars going to see you?
Having paid 8 lakh INR and I would still have to shell out on aux lamps and extra crash protection on the sides? I think I will rather keep my money to myself. Hopefully, KTM does launch the 390 ADV soon.
I think ktm got you.
Bulu Bhai I'm 5,5inch it's compartable for this height
Bulu Bhai
I am looking for rigid aux lamps. is there any link? you got it some where in Bengaluru??
How does it do riding 2 up in different situations?
It means V storm 650 is better than versys in every aspect....Bro plz make d video of comparison between these 2....
Major problem is absence of center stand 🙁
Can we put multipurpose off road capable tyres also on these ? Will it do well with the bike ?
Not with the stock suspension set up...
Crash guard source and cost ?
Sir plzzz inform if any versys 650 is available for sale
Is it a good bike to take a trip of ladakh from kolkata??
Hi bullu, I am planning to buy super byke range around 5lakhs to 10lakhs please guide me for a good byke. I am 6 feet tall
And currently i have bullet standard 350.
I am concern abiut the average, fuel tank capacity, maintenance, and part availability.
try CBR 650F
what year model is that sir?
Bhala vdo bhaina, gadi bisaya re idea miligala.
Does any of your friend also do his rides with harley 833
as always Honest Review..
Bulu biker love the content and honest opinions you share, once small suggestion please use gimbal while recording or any tripods. Watching the video on large TV screens amplifies all the movements you can minimize it by using a gimbal and elevates you video production quality
Hey Bro... Would like you to review Z650 for practical touring in India
I'm from odisha bhai , loved u r video's
Hello bulu bhai versys ko Handel bar Raizer lagana kaise rahega 30 mm
Sir maintenance mein harley achi hai ki kawasaki ya honda????
Surya Pratap sabse best Honda har tarah se
Can u compare it with ninja 650 and explain pros and cons. Am trying to find which is good among 2.
darshan jadhav they have the same engine, if you weren’t aware ;) the ninja 650 is a sport bike, where this is a sport tourer/ dual sport if you want it to be
@@MrTraxxasnitro am aware that they both have same engine. Since bulu has both, ninja as well as versys, i asked to share how both are different in his experience and pros and cons of each. Hope u got my point.
Very helpful review. Thanks.
How much KM for service interval
if the versys engine was a bit more smooth and less stressing it would be one of the best out there...I sold mine...the engine/gear ratio irritated me...
How many bike collection do you have bro?
This or Vstorm650 ?
This one
Will you sell ur versus now?
Very good and honest review.
How is the comfort for pillion?
Best in world
@@BuluBiker do you have still versys?
@@BuluBiker ❣️
