Versys 1000 SE

EXCLUSIVE TO THE SE MODEL

KECS (Kawasaki Electronic Control Suspension) KECS


The Versys 1000 SE model comes with KECS which is based on the semi-active system that debuting on the 2018 Ninja ZX-10R SE, KECS adapts to road and riding conditions in real time, providing the ideal amount of damping called for. Combining high-level mechanical components with the latest electronic control technology, KECS offers both the suppleness to handle a wide range of riding situations, as well as the firm damping to facilitate sport riding. The tyres feel planted, delivering confidence when cornering. On the Versys 1000 SE, KECS also includes electronically adjustable rear preload – a first for Kawasaki. Riders can choose from three payload modes (each with +5/-5 adjustment):
  • Rider only
  • Rider with luggage
  • Rider with passenger and luggage

KQS (Kawasaki Quick Shifter) KQS


Complementing the Versys 1000’s exhilarating engine character, the SE model's standard equipment includes a quick shifter that enables clutchless upshifts and downshifts for seamless acceleration and quick and easy deceleration.

The quick shifter is also available as an accessory for the standard Versys 1000

LED Cornering Lights LED Cornering Lights


Lights built into the shrouds help illuminate the road when cornering at night. Each of the three lights has a fixed direction and is activated based on lean angle. As the bike leans over, the lights come on in order, creating a wider illuminated path in the direction the bike is heading. These are not an accessory but only available on the SE model.

ENGINE

Exciting In-Line Four Engine KAWASAKI IN-LINE FOUR EXHILARATION x FUN PACKAGE ON WINDING ROADS


A key to the Versys 1000’s fun factor, the exciting engine delivers more than just performance figures. The 1,043 cm3 In-line Four, tuned for flexibility, offers superb throttle response, strong torque at all rpm (especially in the low-mid range), and a seductive intake howl – ensuring riders are treated to a physically and aurally exhilarating sensation with every twist of the throttle. A change to Electronic Throttle Valves for 2019 enables the addition of Electronic Cruise Control, while also contributing to smooth power delivery.

Electronic Throttle Valves


Electronic Throttle Valves enable the ECU to control the volume of both the fuel (via fuel injectors) and the air (via throttle valves) delivered to the engine. Ideal fuel injection and throttle valve position results in smooth, natural engine response and the ideal engine output.

FUN PACKAGE ON WINDING ROADS

Fun Sport Riding on a Variety of Streets/Conditions Long-Travel Suspension + Sporty 17” Wheels


Because real world riding occurs on streets that are often less than circuit smooth – road imperfections (bumps, potholes) are far from rare, and some streets are not even paved (cobblestone, etc) – Kawasaki engineers chose long-travel suspension to enable riders to carve corners with aplomb. While not designed for off-road use, the long-travel suspension’s ability to cope with less-than-perfect street conditions allows the Versys 1000 to remain composed where bikes with stiffer, sportier set-ups would require backing off the throttle. Lightweight 17” wheels front and rear contribute to quick, sporty handling.

KCMF (Kawasaki Cornering Management Function) KTRC & KCMF


IMU-Equipped Total Engine & Chassis Management Package 
Using the latest evolution of Kawasaki’s advanced modelling software and feedback from a compact Bosch IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit), KCMF monitors engine and chassis parameters throughout the corner – from entry, through the apex, to corner exit – modulating brake force and engine power to facilitate smooth transition from acceleration to braking and back again, and to assist riders in tracing their intended line through the corner. On the Versys 1000, KCMF oversees the following systems:
  • KECS (SE-only feature)
  • KIBS (including pitching management and corner braking management)

EVEN BETTER EQUIPPED TO RIDE LONG, RIDE FAR

Electronic Cruise Control Electronic Cruise Control


Kawasaki’s cruise control system allows a desired speed to be maintained with the simple press of a button. Once activated, the rider does not have to constantly apply the throttle. This reduces stress on the right hand when traveling long distances, enabling relaxed cruising and contributing to a high level of riding comfort.
