Highly popular in both Europe and North America, the Versys 650’s commanding riding position offers a high level of machine control, enabling riders to enjoy “street surfing.” A big brother to the original Versys, the new Verys 1000 pursued an even higher level of sport riding satisfaction. Combining a powerful 1,043 cm3 liquid-cooled 4-stroke DOHC 16-valve In-line Four engine, dynamic long-stroke suspension and sporty 17” road tyres, its unique package was designed to offer riders the greatest riding enjoyment in the widest possible variety of street riding situations – situations ranging from congested city streets, to twisty mountain passes, to long stretches of highway riding. Its tough looks have a functional beauty that is also appealing.
