This & That: 2107 Kawasaki Versys -X 300
If you like Kawasaki's
Versys line but feel that the 1000 and 650 models were just too
much bike or too expensive, the brand new
X 300 should fit right into your lane. Nearly 100 pounds
lighter than its 650cc big brother, the new X 300 is has a torquey
296cc twin-cylinder engine borrowed from the Ninja line. Looks-wise
the new Versys appears to have been influenced by Kawi's popular
KLR 650. The rear suspension on the X 300 is radically
different with a hidden Uni-Trak rear shock as opposed to the Verys
650's offset laydown shock. Light weight and spunky, the X 300 is
ready for long distance highway touring, agile city maneuvering,
and winding backroad excursions.
