That would be the motor they should throw in the KLR. The cast rims and wheel size are a big reason I don't ride the versys. The ergos don't work for me as well. The most comfortable bike I've ever owned was the KLR with a Russell on it.hANNAbONE said:Why not outfit a Versys..? awesome 650 twin on it.!
I would agree, my 08 KLR with a Russell and MRA screen was the most comfortable bike I ever had. I also would like a KLR with the Versys engine in it.Brntrt said:That would be the motor they should throw in the KLR. The cast rims and wheel size are a big reason I don't ride the versys.

FAIL is not exactly what people that road the Versys 1k say. When in Europe I did check their excellent ergos, talked to people that rode them and the overall opinion is very good. Obviously it is not an offroad bike... no one in their perfect mind is claiming that.BaldKnob said:Europe gets the Versys 1000 but it is a poser offroad. Essentially, a streetbike with 6" suspension.
