This is the best review of a motorcycle I've ever seen, and I'm just 6 minutes into the video. Russians are an amazing people!

I like Russians and I like Russia. Some day, perhaps, I will get an opportunity to ride there. Who knows? But, if not, there are so many wonderful videos by experienced riders from all over the planet so, if one can't go in person, others, such as Mister Jibs will fill the void. Thanks for this post. I enjoyed your review and note how the bike has evolved from 2013 to my bike; which is the 2021 smoky grey with red accents model and looks fantastic. Kawasaki did a great job designing this excellent bike. To those of you contemplating a first bike or your next one, get a Versys 650 and see for yourself. Just don't drop it on your foot without proper boots on and even then, it's not a light weight motorcycle. Two years later my left foot still hurts. But, that is what happens if you fall in the wrong way on the wrong surface and can't jump free. Ah, well, if one is afraid of a little hurt or an odd scar, one is not living fully. Life is precarious at best. Might as well have some fun 'out there' in our 'dangerous' world. A great way to do that is on the back of a good motorcycle.

This is the best review I have ever seen in my nearly 50 years of riding. I am looking to buy one of these. Thank you!

Great video. Your English is very good. Making the most of the versy's with the kind of riding your doing.

Top - notch, real world review of a real world motorcycle. Hats off. Oh, and your English is just fine.

A better review than most, if not all videos on this model. More application and theory in practice. You proved that it is truly versatile. The newer models, I'm sure that you know, several of the bugs have been removed. Thank you.

I fully agree with Comborico below, yours it is, by far, the best review of a motorcycle I've seen. I have a Versys 650 and learned a lot with you. Thank you so much

The most comprehensive review of a Versys 650 available. Thank you.

I appreciate a review from someone that’s has actually pushed the bike past it’s limits in all scenarios and got some real mileage on the bike. You can’t learn anything useful from press launches spending an afternoon on the bike. Excellent review.

Currently, I am comparing the Kawasaki Versys 650 with the Honda cb500x with the intent to get one of these models. This video is the best review for the 650 I've found so far. Thanks~

Thanks for taking the time to do this especially in your second language.

Amazing review! Thank you for such an in depth and unbiased review. Your English is better than some native speakers.

Very good video, Jibs. Great that you had camera footage to support your points. Great documentation of all the costs and fixes. Very impressive! Now I really want a Versys.

One of the best reviews available on you tube 🎉🎉

Thank you so much for this. I see that you demand a lot from your bike, and that makes your perspective more valuable than others I've seen.

Well worth all your effort. Excellent review. Compiled from 4 years of footage? Absolutely priceless. Answered all my questions, and then some. Thank you very much!

Probably the Best long term review of the small versys on youtube, congrats!

AWESOME review! I wish everyone would do reviews like you!

Perfect video. When you are passing a lot of useful information, your language doesn't matter. I haven''t seen better review of Versys, than yours. I bought Versys (same model, but without ABS) about 2 months ago. Engine is not so smooth but, as you mention, torque gives a lot of fun. Good riding position, I have a 195 cm and same wind screen and it works perfectly. I need to experiment a bit with suspension, right now I'm using default setup. I also notice same as you that pipe below airbox is a bit wet, rest is clean and dry. Gearbox needs a bit more experience, than in other bikes, to change gears without clicks but its possible get it working smooth, except N->1 ;) Your skills are amazing, real urban/terrain explorer! I wait for more videos, especially for review after 100kkm!;) Best regards from Poland;)

Best bike review I've ever watched on KZread, thanks!

Thank you for your good review and your English is very good and certainly understandable. Kind Regards, Barry ... Australia.

Fantastic. Incredible review and riding skills. Really enjoyed the variety of conditions demonstrated along with the wear items and remediation. Your English is very good as well. Thank you!

The BEST review I have ever seen on a motorcycle. You covered every aspect, every detail without being boring, along with the specific video clip each time.

This is the most detailed review for Versys ever. Props for the most awesome review sir!

Congrats to your first english video! It was awesome, it resolved my issues big time. Great job in camera department, great details of everything on the bike. Hope you make another one to watch....

I bought a 2021 Versys 650 in August 22. So far I've ridden it for 22, 250 km. I really like this bike and it has seen some weird roads and carries the scars to prove it. My service manager put a child's band aid over one of the marks. I left it there. Atm it is in the shop getting a third rear tire and some warranty inspections. Should be out of the shop this upcoming week. Riding season has returned to Alberta and winter is finally over. Can't wait to hit the road. If life is boring, get a motorcycle. I am 73.5 years young. It's never 2 late to go adventuring. Ride safe you all.

Very detailed and informative video.. thanks for covering topics which no other blogger thought of.

What an incredible video. Love that you converted everything as well. Didn't even have to think about it. Excellent information.

Great review, I just bought a Versys 2010 and I love it. It’s my first bike and your video is really helpful, I’m still discovering new things at it.

Great review: very informative and was fun to watch. Thank you.

Great review. Your English is just fine. Thanks for taking the time to post this. Much appreciated.

Thank you for your comprehensive and honest viewpoint on your experience with the Kawasaki Versa 650 motorcycle. It is a bike that I have recently begun to think seriously about. I am a returning rider after 45 years and will be starting off a bit easy but am looking to be able to handle touring and occasional off road riding in addition to city road rides. Best wishes.

Great video, your experience is largely spot on with my own experience with my Versys.

Really good video, thank you for a thorough test. I haven't taken my versys off road yet but I feel more confident having seen and listened to you. Thank you for doing it and your English was great. I look forward to many more of your reviews.

Serious reviewer, BRAVO. Excellent, this guy is the best.

Thanks for your time and energy in this preparing and making this vid. Your English is fine. I just bought a Versys 650GT 2018 model.

No need to apologize. Great job, excellent review.

Best review of motorbike I've ever seen! Wish all reviews could be close to this one, great job !!!

That's one of the best motorbike reviews i've seen, good job man, safe riding!

Very good review. Very clear and includes answers to many many questions about the bike. You are obviously a very capable rider too. Thank you.

Excellent Review on the 650 Versey. After 36 years of riding 1000cc+ 4 cylinder street bikes, riding the 650 is like riding a Swiss Army knife. The bike isn't great at anything, but it's good at most things. I prefer to use the bike on twisty secondary roads and rough country lanes and dirt roads. Thanks for a very in depth review. Excellent camera work, I really enjoyed the low angle view of the front wheel.

Excellent and thorough review, and top marks for your English!! Great job :)

Awesome video, you truly showed all the advantages and disadvantages of this wonderful motorcycle. I also have a 2012 Versys and it's my favorite bike I've ever owned. Stay safe and thank you again for this video.

Now this is a great review! Best i'v seen far. Thank you.

Thank you, that's an amazing review. I got the Versys 2018 one. I will keep things in mind.

This production is about the best I have seen for the Versys. Thank you for taking the time I'm sure it was not easy. Great job!!!.

Outstanding review for this bike. Thank you so much for making; looking at getting one soon!

Its the best review I have seen for this motorbike. With a long difference. Good job mate, VERY good job. Best for you!

Best review EVER! You analyzed and explained everything! You solved all of my questions and you did it with style. Even had aerial footage. Thank you for this! I will now have to go and buy one.

Super awesome video. Much love from the USA. 👍 you've done things on this bike I didnt realize I wanted to do. And shown its versatile capabilities. Pretty good riding skills also. Good job.

thank you for taking the time to make this video, it was very informative. Your English is fine.

Thank you for a pertinent data review. You furnished appropriate datum; personal, mechanical, environmental, and logistical. You're the first person I've ever seen who showed curb/stair crossing and an example of ground clearance datum. Excellent review.

You did a great job! I really enjoyed it and the 30 min flew by. This helped me make the decision to buy a Versys

Wonderful review! Great info, great shots, very nice editing! And your English is nothing to worry about!!

This review is the next level. Thank you for such a detailed information.

Great video. The most thorough Versys review have seen. Thanks for your careful observations. I just got a Versys (just 200 mi.,so far} and your video has taught me alot.

You have summed up the Versys very well! I love my Versys and have had it for 10 years

Thank you for taking the time to post this video Jibs! All that information and footage is super helpful. Ride safe!

You have no idea how much has this meant to me - so well rounded review, everything explained through examples. I am scheduled to try out used Versys 650 day after tomorrow and your review just solidified my determination that this is THE bike. Thanks!

Fantastic. I’ve been watching all the Kawasaki Versys 650 videos I can find and this is the best one I’ve seen. Very thorough in detail and excellent video quality from many angles. Oh, don’t apologize for your English… It’s better than many Americans.

All I can say is THANK YOU! Hands down the BEST motorcycle review I have ever seen! Your English was beyond acceptable, I had 0 problems understanding you. I was looking for an Adventure bike as I cam a dirt biker. I was looking for something like an adventure bike but was purely for street. Well after watching your video I can say with out a shadow of a doubt, this bike I have been looking for. Again I can't thank you enough for making this kind of content!

A very good video, well organized and detailed, thank you, spasiva

I've never viewed a more enjoyable and relevant bike review as this. Road conditions as shown in the review is very similar to the ones in Malaysia i.e. full of potholes where they are expected or unexpected. As an added value he also shared some wear-and-tear that we need to look out for. Most amazing is when he hot off a highway and onto the bushes and back again ! I must try this trick one of these days !

The best complete review i ever saw on that bike, cheers from Bali Indonesia

Excellent job, enjoyed your input looking forward to your next post.

The video was very useful .. because you mentioned a lot of important information and important numbers .. Continue with another video so that we can all benefit👍👌

Great great review! I’m closer to take the decision and the Versys is filling my eye, thanks for the review! 🇲🇽

great job, I loved your video. I was impressed at how much off road you did with this bike

Great review, very helpful as I have a versys as first bike and your hints tips and general advise is the best have come across, that’s including the forums. Keep it up bud. We want to see some more and your English is great.

Thank you for the work you put in on this video. I just purchased a new 2020 650 LT, which I bought based solely on the reviews, having never actually ridden it yet. This video validated my choice in a way no other has. My original choice was a Tenere 700, but they are unavailable here until sometime in June. I definitely plan to do some light off-roading, though obviously nothing like what the Tenere is capable of. Glad to see it will handle some of the situations I had in mind. Need to get new tires for sure. As others have said, your English is very good, and I'm sure it's even better now after a couple more years of practice. Good work!

Finally a thorough video. Thank you for doing this video

Your review was quite well presented…my primary language is English & I had no issues in understanding your comments/remarks…a very thorough & thoughtful report👍

Honestly amazing video, even 4 years later. I have been looking in to purchase this as my first actual motorcycle. I had purchased the CSC TT250 as a starter, and 2 years for owning, 3 months of legal road riding (just got my license at age 18), it leaves me wanting more. Thanks for this review. Helps a lot actually.

Loved your video. Great deal of information. I've own a Kawasaki Vulcan S for several months now. It's my first bike, but I road tested the latest model Versys 650 today and I loved it!

Excellent video. Detailed, but never boring.

I am looking at buying one of these bikes. This is a brilliant video that tells people everything they need to know. This is the best video on KZread about the Versus. Thank you sir.

Very useful video and good presentation skills! Thanks for your time and effort!

Great review ! Very comprehensive ! I've had mine for 4 years now , seat can be improved by using a small sheepskin , I replaced the standard footpegs for Puig wide ones for comfort, and ditched the original exhaust for a scorpion can which made it lighter and sounds better ! Hope you keep enjoying it !

Congratulations on a fantastic review. Extremely knowledgeable. Honest and accurate appraisal backed up by time and experience on the bike. Most helpful in upcoming coice of Motorcycle.

I often have trouble understanding accents that are different than mine. However, your English is very good and I had no trouble. Your review was very good and I appreciate you making the time to make it.

Great and objective review, thank you! Lot of work behind it and very well made.

Great review..I'll dl it for reference purposes for when I get one. You offered changing specs when and where necessary, this is a great benefit for those that need to know.

This was the very best review of any motorcycle I have ever watched. Thank you! You did an amazing job. Fantastic.

Excelent video! I'm interested on buying a new motorcycle and recently I started watching videos of different mid size motorcycles. A few day a go, the Versys got my attention and I started watching videos in english and spanish (my native language) and I can say with confidence that this is the best review of a Kawasaki Versys in KZread. Thank you for your time and dedication on making this video.

You did a great great job. This is the best review of a bike i could wish.

Excellent review. Thank you for taking the time. I know that it takes a lot of work to edit audio and video. Take care

Never have a seen a better bike review, not only do you mention everything about the bike. But also the way you filmed and edited the video.
