Am thinking of adding a bike
Have an 06 Zx14, 08 Concours14, 2K Valkyrie Interstate, 97 Valkyrie Custom, and was just checking out a new 08 Versies 650. Dealer offered a killer price on it and I am really considering it. Was looking at a V Strom too, but the Versies just felt right. Cant believe how light it is. Anyone have any experience with this lightweight??

Gosh you really think you can handle a bike UNDER 500 LBS. ???!!
I've enjoyed my buddies ninja 650 and all reviews indicate that this IS a better version.
Compared to the rest of your stable this thing will turn at just the thought. A good "buddy" bike.

I rode Dad's Versys and if I could add another bike to my stable this would be it.
It was a blast to ride and I could not believe how easy it would wheelie......sorry Dad
