After 15 years, several girlfriends and one wife, I have made the decision to also replace my 2003 Suzuki Bandit 1200


I got a very good deal on a leftover 2016 Versys 1000

Great bike. Compliments my KLR very nicely. My first with fuel injection.

Now I need to sell a kidney to buy all the farkles I am going to add on

Yeah, I decided that selling blood was a better option.

Made the mistake of pretending this was an ADV bike in July. Yeah, not so much, especially with stock tires. I also now have a softball size dent in my skid plate. At least it did its job.
My only complaint so far is that the tank is too small. I would like to be able to go around 300 miles before having to refuel.
