Kawasaki India is on the charge in our two-wheeler market and has been launching new products regularly. According to import documents Kawasaki has brought in the Versys 650 for homologation purpose indicating that the bike will be launched soon. The Kawasaki Versys 650 will be the second offering under the Versys brand umbrella after the Versys 1000 that was launched a few months ago. The Kawasaki Versys 650 will be the third 650cc Kawasaki motorcycle for the Indian two-wheeler market after the Kawasaki Ninja 650 and the Kawasaki ER-6n. 

The styling of the Kawasaki Versys 650 is similar to its litre-class sibling with a dual headlamps and a quarter fairing while the LED tail lamp has been inspired from the Kawasaki Z1000 street bike. Powering the bike is the same 650cc motor as seen on the Ninja 650 and the ER-6n but the engine has been tuned to better suit the dual purpose nature of the Versys 650.

The windscreen on the Kawasaki Ninja 650 can be manually adjusted whereas a stronger subrframe allows the use of clean-mount panniers. The Kawasaki Ninja 650 is expected to be by launched by second half of 2015. The bike will be priced around Rs 5.15 lakh in the Indian two-wheeler market and will compete against the Benelli TNT 600GT.
