Versys mods

[viper]

Rode one today and I'm in !

for those of you that have had one any recommends on the usual mods

Good replacement  screen? ( I'm fussy , had 5 different ones on the gtr)

who makes the longest front fender extender ?

Engine bars , anyone had these fitted  ?

is the tank cover a bad fit like the GTR one?

[O.C.]

Well well well Viper,  congratulations on your new bike..what colour?

As for necessary improvement you will need the following,

Radiator guard,  the Kawasaki one is good.

Front fender extender, I  chose R & G cos it looks good and works well

Screen, this is the subject of an abundance of discussion,  Givi AirFlow is brilliant but fugly, Puig is the main popular choice

I have Kawasaki crash bars which are very neat, but not yet (hopefully never) put to test, they are extremely neat and very robust.

I have an S W Motech day bag on a fuel filler mounting.

When is the new 'un due ?

Just remembered ...dont choose Kawsaki heated grips, far better are Oxford Touring

Givi Ariflow screen was best for me, adjustable and easy to use.
I had the Kawasaki crash bars on and appear to do the job, great mounting for Cameras etc too.
Never used a tank cover on the Versys, its a bit of an odd shaped tank
I had the 2013 model so fitted a gear indicator
Kawasaki branded (Givi V35) panniers
Tons of space for all manner of electrical stuff from the battery 
Remus Exhaust - Hated the original one on the 2013
Rad cover, although prolly not needed if you go down the Fenda extenda route
I had barkbusters fitted with a Kaoko cruise control fitted inside the Barkbusters
Mirror extenders as the 2013 model ones was just to narrow

Hope that helps.

im getting the lime green / black one for this year . Its the grand tourer so has the heated grips , aux lights and all the panniers ect as standard . Not got a date yet as they need to get the touring kit ordered in as an extra from japan . we have an extended holiday coming up in a few weeks so I don't really need it until end of may anyway . On an even more exicting note Ive also got a CB1100ex coming in on back order which will arrive probably the same time ....Omg cant wait !!!

Liking all the comments on the mods , Kawasaki crash bars , do you mean the sliders or actual bars ? not seen any from kawaka , only Motech ones

I should have said Frame Slider which are standard fitment on the GT model.



I chose the Green model but it was between that and the Black

Are we turning into a Versys forum? Mind you I like them as well. Particularly the green and black one.

Don't be daft this is a spin off TPS/PR4 forum Pete, we'll be discussing K1600s next

After taking a hit from something that appears to be a cannonball !!  I decided to put these on my versys.  It hit just below the carbon protector on my right glove and I honestly thought somebody had shot me.
