2016 Kawasaki Versys 650LT on www.Totalmotorcycle.com

The ultimate backroad Supersport Tourer…

The 2016 Versys 650 LT model has the same mechanical specification as the Versys 650 ABS plus it comes standard with color-matched KQR™ (Kawasaki Quick Release) 28-liter hard saddlebags and gloss black hand guards. This extra equipment adds even greater flexibility to an already accomplished motorcycle. The saddlebags, for example, offer invaluable practicality for both daily commuting and weekend escapes, and can easily accommodate a full-sized helmet. Furthermore, the Kawasaki Quick Release system makes it very easy for the rider to remove and mount the bags in a matter of seconds, and the bags utilize Kawasaki’s One Key system for extra convenience.

All the Versys LT models come standard with a 24-month limited warranty, which can be extended up to an additional 48 months with the optional Kawasaki Protection Plus™ warranty.
