2026 Kawasaki Versys 650 Ready to go the distance
Kawasaki Versys 650: A stand out machine in the Kawasaki range, the latest iteration of the ever-popular Versys 650 is ready to take the 2026 sales season head on.
Fully Euro-5 compliant, the agile Versys boasts a maximum of 67 PS in terms of peak power plus a useful 61Nm of peak torque.
Equipped with 17 inch wheels for manoeuvrability and agility, the highly durable and equally highly praised, twin-cylinder, water-cooled 649cm3 engine remains in place while the styling echoes that of the Versys 1100 (which is the official motorcycle of the Tour de France) offering a similar level of rider aids plus distinctive contemporary looks.
From a riding perspective, the easy to read 4.3” TFT meter relays all essential information while offering the possibility to link to the riders’ Smartphone using Kawasaki’s unique Rideology App that also includes a voice command function.
Offered as standard with KTRC traction control, plus the convenience of all LED lighting, the best way to truly understand the Versys 650 is to ride one and appreciate the all-day comfort seat, ergonomic riding position and generous weather-beating adjustable screen. Add such accessories as “one-key system” panniers and a voluminous top case and the Versys is ready to satisfy any riders dreams of distance.
Available for 2026 in three colourways, or as part of Kawasaki’s highly appreciated “Editions” range – which encompasses Tourer and Grand-Tourer editions built using only Kawasaki Genuine Accessories – the latest Versys 650 is ready to go the distance.
Priced at £8049 for the standard model.
Available from middle of August
