The Versys Thread
AzItLies:
Hey Smeggy, quick q for you,
your tank is a gloss black, mine is a dull black. Did you do something to yours or did it come that way? it looks great in contrast to the yellow!
Just ordered a 44T and am really looking forward to that, it's pretty cool how easy it is to changed the "gearing" slightly. Bet it's going to be a great benefit :)
Thanks!

Well, it's actually a satin black with nice metalflake in it. But of course, I have it polished near to death. :smoking:

Trying to catch my wife on wide-open roads, I've found that's not the case. The 650 engine will do 85 all day long.
Yes it can, ran mine across Kansas 85 to 90 all day

I haven't found it lacking in power. You just have to learn how to ride it, compared to larger-displacement bikes. I mean, it's a 650, so more down-shifting is required than with a liter-bike. I'll happily downshift two gears to pass in order to get 50+mpg and lighter weight. I'm sure by the end of this summer, I'll wonder why I ever needed 100hp before.
Unless you're touring two-up, packing the kitchen sink, or taking on Ricky Gadson, the Versys has plenty of power.
