Kawasaki Other description

 2008 Kawasaki Versys (Versatile System) 650cc "Adventure-Style" motorcycle.

2008 Motorcycle of the Year Award by Motorcyclist Magazine.
2008 Best in Class "Allrounder class" award by Motor Cycle News.

This great middle-weight bike is highly reviewed for its ultra-reliable 650cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine, delivering a great mix of power and torque over a broad RPM range.  It's upright seating position, wide handlebars and triple disc brakes makes for a safe, controllable and comfortable ride.  The 41mm inverted front forks, adjustable monoshock and beautiful aluminum swingarm provide perfect suspension for riding city streets, twisty backroads, or great distances on our nation's Interstate highways.

This low mileage bike was purchased new by a capable and knowledgeable motorcyclist.  He owned a garage filled with fine bikes.  All of them were meticulously maintained.  Sadly, I am listing the bike for his widow.

This bike is very clean, starts, idles, runs, shifts and brakes perfectly.  The battery is full-powered and all lights and electrics work fine.  There is a "Battery Tender" wiring harness installed.
The Pirelli tires are presumably original (IDK) and should be fine for a few thousand more miles.

Included is the pictured luggage rack and removable, locking GIVI storage compartment.  The owner's manual and tool kit is under the seat.

Full-payment by Bank Certified Check or Postal Money Order expected within 10 days of auction completion. 
I will hold the bike with a PayPal deposit of $500, the balance to be paid in advance of or upon pick-up.
I WILL NOT hold the bike in lieu of a full-cash payment upon pick-up. 
I can store the bike securely until your arrangements can be made.
Will sell to Canadian or overseas bidders provided all shipping arrangements are made by buyer and don't cause me too much hassle.
Free enclosed trailer delivery available to the Barber Motorsports AHRMA Vintage Festival in Birmingham AL (October 11-13).

Remembering the KR750, named the 'Green Meanie', TT winner Mick Grant said: "The KR750 was not as bad as what people thought it was. It had a nice spread, with enormous power and mid-range torque.
