I’ve been riding for 20+ years. I’ve owned a few rockets and almost every harley. I read alot about the versys and finally picked mine up last Sat. I am extremely pleased. I rode 110 miles home and then another 100 back and forth to work. I think anyone who really likes to ride should have this in their garage. I dont think it is the prettiest bike out there but it certainly growing more and more. It reminds me of the monster duc but just alot more punch. It is a great bike for all. Light enough for beginners and definitely fun enough for novice. I highly recommend it. Have fun and ride safe

Regarding the look of this bike I thougt it ugly at first sight, but after having seen more pictures I have arrived to the opposite opinion.
Have started up savings for one as my first bike next summer.

I live in a country down south called Chile and although it’s a pretty small country we are getting all the goodies from all over the world…and one of those goodies is the Versys.
I,ve had mine for about a month and I can trully say that the Versys is one of those bikes that only wants to be revved to warp speeds and it’s sole pourpose is to translate youre bodie motion to the tarmac, giving you a constant rush of adrenaline. One of the things that I enjoy the most is listening to it’s revving engine which is not upstaged by the sound of the muffler cause it’s found just under your right foot, not many people notice it, but that’s one of the aspects that hipnotize without you noticing. Before buying the Versys I open mindedly tried the 2008 wee strom, and 2008 750 transalp, both great bikes and very popular within the trail enthusiasts, but they are stright up blown out of the water when it comes to agility on tarmac, throttle response, versatility and overall feel. I took over 6 month evaluating options and never was convinced until that second I first twisted the throttle on the Versys…hooked and addicted on the spot. Versys owners are one the most pationate bike owners I have ever encountered, that must really mean something. By the way…Versys was voted bike of the year 2008 by Motorcycle Magazine. The Versys is proof of how a remarkable concept and design can be translate to a flawless construction and delivery.
Hands down the best overall bike I’ve ever riden.
