This is the new Kawasaki Versys. This motor comes in early 2010 and with many changes, upgrade on some important details without change the overall body design. Compared to the previous version, this Kawasaki Versys is more fresh and sporty. The futuristic look on the body makes this new Kawasaki Versys 2010 more trendy and sporty.
The new headlight design also applied to this Kawasaki Versys. There are two light model combined with additional city light. The fairing was redesign and equipped with additional LED tail version Z-1000.
But still, this Kawasaki Versys is powered by ordinary four-stroke, liquid cooled, DOHC engine, that was already used on their previous edition. This engine is quite good actually, and acceptable but I think Kawasaki needs more update on some engine details to get more power on low engine rotation.
