Kawasaki Other description

2012 Kawasaki Versys (KLE650), got it with the gauges not working but was told there was approximately 15K miles on it. I am the second owner as far as I know. 

Bike runs great, lots of torque. Tires are brand new Michelin Pilot 4s. All lights work, but there are no front turn signals, only the rear signals. Brake light, running light, hazard lights, high/low beam work. Brakes work well. Fronts were rebled. 

As you'll see there has been some modification to the bike. Front end was swapped with a CBR929 front end, kept the stock calipers and wheel. The front wheel bearings are new. The steering stem/neck bearings are also new. The handlebars are new and were swapped due to the originals being bent, but the geometry is very close between the bars. The rear shock was lowered to match the front, to keep the trail/rake the same. There is an aftermarket aluminum coolant reservoir on the bike to fit the look. There is also an engine guard installed on the bike. There is a 7"? headlight from a cb750 mounted on the bike with a new bulb.

Everything else is stock. The fluid have been changed - oil, filter, coolant, front brake fluid. 

There is a dent on the top/right side of the tank. Wouldn't take much to fix with light body filler. There is a tear on the left side of the seat. The bike comes as is and is rideable. However, based on where you live there may be different laws requiring mirrors and/or front turn signals. The bike needs a speedometer. The ignition also needed to be mounted. I will work on getting these things taken care of before sale if I can. 

Any questions feel free to ask.

In the video below, we see these worlds collide as a Corvette-powered Mazda RX-7 battles a stretched Kawasaki ZX-10R in a drift competition produced by Icon Motorsports. The Ninja is ridden by Nick “Apex” Brocha, smoking his ZX’s fat rear tire against the RX at Sandia Motorsports Park in New Mexico.

Top 10 EICMA Show Bikes You May Have Missed

Mon, 14 Nov 2011

Interesting motorcycles you probably didn't see1 of 11Next Last There’s no cave deep, mountain high or rock heavy enough to have thwarted news of Ducati’s 1199 Panigale superbike launch at the 2012 EICMA show in Milan, Italy. And a few models such as Honda’s NC700S and X, Kawasaki’s Versys 1000 and CRP’s Energica were unveiled without heavy prior fanfare, but gasps of surprise weren’t heard when the wraps were taken off Triumph’s Tiger 1200 Explorer, Husqvarna’s Nuda or MV Augusta’s F3 675 among others, whose existences were revealed months in advance of the show. What we’ve comprised below is our list Top 10 Bikes unveiled at EICMA that didn’t receive top billing but are certainly worthy of your attention.

The North East,Prescott and fast laps with Chris Walker at Mallory

Thu, 26 Apr 2012

A big thanks to all at Newcastle Motorcycles for lending me a Honda CB1000F on Saturday to do nothing other than join mates for a blast round some fantastic roads in the North East. The buddies in question were Alan Smith (Bradley’s dad) and two stroke addict and race fan Chris Berriman. We headed east over the moors from the ‘Toon’ heading towards Barnard Castle then back through Consett before finishing up at the picturesque Tynemouth.
