Hiya Swampdonkey,

Welcome to the site. The bike you saw was a Kawasaki Versys . Google that, there should be heaps on it, eg http://forum.motorcycle-usa.com/defa...77293&g=278179

Sweet looking bike alright, I don't know much about it though.....

You must buy, you must buy, you must buy.....

There's a couple in Motorad down here, but apart from the frame etc looking very ER6ish I know nothing about them. Don't 'look' very off road capable...

Hi Swampdonkey

You're right it is a good bike, bought one myself in November when they first came out and haven't been disappointed.

There is a very good forum in the UK - http://www.versys.co.uk - lots of good info and contacts for mods, etc.

Hope you get one, you'll enjoy it.
