    The popular middleweight naked comes in a new paint scheme with Kawasaki’s green paint for the wheels complementing the green highlights on the livery and the chassis. Apart from this, the bike remains the same as the 2020 model. We had ridden the bike a couple of months ago and you can head here to read our take on the naked.

    Along with the Z650, Kawasaki has also launched the 2021 iteration of the Versys 1000, which costs Rs 20,000 more than the 2020 model.  The ADV tourer from Kawasaki now comes with updated suspension settings for a more comfortable riding experience.

    Mechanically, the bike is unchanged and continues to be powered by the 1043cc liquid-cooled in-line four-cylinder motor developing 120PS and 102Nm. Electronic nannies on the Versys 1000 include cruise control, cornering ABS, and traction control.

    The 2021 Kawasaki Versys 1000 takes on the likes of the BMW S 1000 XR in India which is priced at Rs 20.90 lakh.

      Worth every single penny
      I am a huge fan of riding, and this bike delivers what almost every rider want , an aggressive approach and smooth handling. Just loved it , however, cost of maintenance and other stuff can get quiet expensive . If you are looking for an weekend kinda bike , then I'll recommend it but not for city (especially crowded cities like mumbai) where u hardly get good patch with low traffic , plus u will encounter speed breakers at the least expected place , so for everyday it's a NO. I cannot stress on how good it glides , even with heavy pillion . Overall a great package if your budget allows it
