From Kawasaki press release:

This The Versys 900 is a new sporty multi-purpose model combining the Versys family’s renowned versatility with the exhilaration of Kawasaki’s 900cc-class In-Line Four engine – put simply, the most sporting Versys yet created.

At the heart of the Versys 900 is a 948 cm3 In-Line Four engine inspired by Kawasaki’s Supernaked Z models rated at a maximum of 122PS (89.6 kW) @9500rpm and with a peak torque of 97.3Nm (9.92 kg¦?m) @8000rpm. Combining strong, controllable response from low and medium rpm with a free-revving character that pulls smoothly towards the upper end of the rev range, this exciting engine delivers the distinctive exhilaration that only an In-Line Four can offer across a wide range of riding situations, whether riding in town, in the hills, or across the country.

Kawasaki engineers developed an all-new trellis frame for the new Versys 900. The main frame is engineered with an emphasis on achieving an ideal rigidity balance and a high level of front-end feel, while the rear frame offers the rigidity to accommodate a passenger and/or panniers plus a top case. A near 50:50 front-to-rear weight distribution delivers excellent light, agile handling. Complementing this character is the Versys series’ signature combination of long-travel suspension and sporty 17” wheels shod with Metzeler ROADTEC 01 tyres.

An upright riding position, a seven-position adjustable screen and height-adjustable seat (825 mm > 845 mm), combine with a fuel tank shape designed to facilitate both reach to the ground and a secure knee grip to create the perfect adrenaline focused package.

Additionally, the Versys 900 is the first Versys model to be equipped with ARAS (Advanced Rider Assistance Systems) that include Adaptive Cruise Control Lite (ACC Lite), Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Blind Spot Detection (BSD). Additionally, an emergency Stop Signal (ESS) that helps to reduce the risk of rear-end collisions is included.

Smartphone connectivity via RIDEOLOGY THE APP MOTORCYCLE gives riders access to a range of useful functions for everything from everyday riding to touring, while a 5” TFT full-colour meter supports Turn-by-Turn Navigation with riders able to choose between two display layouts according to their preferences and riding needs: Type 1, which emphasises engine excitement, and Type 2, which prioritises navigation visibility and vehicle information.

In terms of styling, the new and unique Aero Edge concept creates a light, floating impression as though air is flowing through the bodywork, emphasising the machine’s agile nature. The result is a distinctly sporty appearance that clearly communicates the Versys 900’s unique character. In terms of luggage, the newly designed 47 L accessory top case and pannier system (2 x 32 L) integrates seamlessly with the bodywork to maintain a sleek, sporty appearance even when fully equipped for touring. Kawasaki dealers will also be offering Edition models including Tourer and Grand Tourer versions created using genuine accessories plus an SE version of the machine will be available.

The Versys 900 SE is likely to be among the most in demand of all the models and features Kawasaki genuine accessories comprising compact LED fog lamps, hand guards, grip heaters, radiator screen, frame protection sliders and a lower cowl plus centre stand.

The Versys 900 SE LT is standard fitted with panniers.

As a new member of the highly praised Versys family, the Versys 900 stands proud as the most sporting iteration yet. The sublime marriage of established and venerated Versys attributes with the iconic Z based 948 cm3 In-Line Four engine will appeal to a new adventurous adrenaline hungry audience keen to explore the excitement and sheer versatility of the Versys legend.
