Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE 2019

Kawa's solution, conceived in the adventure sector, is an uncompromising all-purpose weapon in the sport-touring sector. The machine's greatest strength: maximum comfort paired with state-of-the-art technology and the right amount of sportiness. The Ride-By-Wire in combination with the KECS and the electronic equipment ensure super responsiveness with maximum touring capability at the same time. The finely adjustable throttle, the smooth clutch and the electronic chassis ensure an almost majestic glide on the road. At the same time, the great seating position with the matching, if not the most beautiful, windshield ensures top aerodynamics - bravo!

The 1-litre version of the Neo Sport Cafe Racer shows that it doesn't always have to be the golden mean. In all honesty, it has to be said that the largest of all the representatives also feels the most "grown-up". The electronic equipment of the 1000 in the + version leaves almost nothing to be desired and the handling is extremely rider-friendly for this class. Playfully easy cornering with a well-tuned chassis, snappy brakes and low weight seem to be the recipe for success in terms of smoothness. In terms of performance, the CB1000R+ unfortunately has to make concessions. With 145 hp, the Honda is not a brute rocket, but it is all the more controllable for it. And 145 hp with a full tank of 213 kg is more than enough for maximum riding pleasure on country roads!
