And so the spending begins (or, How to make my Versys even better !)
Davy F.:
I've had the Versys for two weeks now and the urge to improve/protect has started. What is it about motorcycles that we go out, buy a perfectly good machine and immediately start to buy stuff for them ?
I suppose the easy answer is, it's FUN !!!!
Anyway, I started off with something that is always the first thing I buy for any new bike I own, a front fender extender.
Next, I wired in the Zumo 660 cradle and fitted a ram ball to the handlebar clamp.
A Stebel Magum replaced the crap oe effort. I also relocated the position to behind the left body panel.
Now I've added an EvoTech radiator grill and for the life of me, I can't figure out why Kawasaki do not have one fitted as standard.
It's not like they make one for you to buy as an accessory, but I know that the guys at EvoTech are very happy that the Big K don't !!
I also cut out of 3M clear paint protector sheet pieces to cover the heel plates and lower part of the tank where my legs rub.
I'm now waiting on some swingarm bobbins coming and I have a host of other ideas that will more than likely get fitted as funds allow.
I remember spending over £2k on my 12GS and the Versys looks like going down a similar route (but hopefully not so expensive).
Between riding and farkling............this is fun fun fun. :D

Sweet. Glad you're having fun with the V. :thumbsup:

Veddy nice. I really like that color combo. The Versys (used) may be my next bike in a year or so.

If they offered that color here I probably would have bought a new '10 last year instead of a leftover '09. I know it could be painted, but I couldn't justify paying more initially, and then also paying to have it painted.
Looks good, I know what you mean about the parts adding up. I have a pile that I still haven't even installed.

I've also just fitted a pair of crash/paddock stand bobbins from EvoTech too. As per the rad guard, they are very nicely made. I also am getting (another) Arai TourX 3 as that style of lid goes so well with this type of bike. :D
