Buyer’s Guide Model Detail

Buyer's Guide > Versys-X 300
Colours shown may not be available in Canada.
The Versys-X 300 takes the parallel twin motor from the Ninja 300 and puts it in an adventure chassis. It's an interesting package, with 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels, suggesting this bike might be fun in the gravel, although it's not something you'd take down single-track. Hard luggage will be available, making this a very interesting choice for budget-conscious adventurers.
