Not too sure about the red frame on that 2012 model. Black or maybe white would look better.

Actually I think that Kawasaki Versys 1000 is a fine looking bike with a functional brutality about it. It also looks as if you can fit full sized panniers with the low (ugly) silencer. For once I might want an after-market lightweight silencer. The whole package looks pretty good value except the weight is a bit alarming to a scrawny awld git like me.
It's quite satisfying to see the drift by manufacturers towards TDM style bikes at last! We have all been asking for this for some time and now it has happened.
Just hope they keep an eye on price, weight, and unwanted sophistication.
Enjoy the 2011 Bike Shows!

And I remember on the IOM that one evening you had a drink problem, got the pictures to prove. But did I complain, no!
Looking at the Triumph too. NEC will be a good day!
