Kawasaki Versys 1000 (2015-2018)

KLZ1000

LT, Tourer and Grand Tourer are variants with accessories.

*2016 saw small changes: rear plate carrier was extended and took the indicators with it, possibly to comply with new legislation; new windshield lock nuts and what appears to be a small cover over the dash, probably to protect it from the sun.
