Versys-X 300 can swim
Was out with Kawasaki today & we did this in our route. The second on is half way down a 10 mile green lane.

Wow that looks like a fun little bike. Handled that crossing well.
I'll be honest I never knew this model existed until just now. After looking it up, it very well could be the perfect bike for me.

Well if I can just get the seat "hard as rock" sorted it would be brilliant ! If more people get onboard, they will add a section to the forum for the Versys-X 300.
That was with stock tyres, which are not ideal in mud or total wet like a stream, you can see where about a 1/3 of the way over it hits the actual stream, which had slimy rocks & losses traction. |
